Benefits of a Softphone for Business
Work Anywhere, Anytime
Softphones can run on any smart device with an internet connection, making them the perfect solution for employees who prefer to work from home or on the go without limiting their productivity.
Call at Discount Rates
By making calls and sending messages over the Internet rather than a cellular network, softphones are able to significantly reduce the overall cost of call and text rates, especially globally.
Reach 160+ New Markets
Softphones can use various number types, including local, international, and toll-free. This allows users to run international sales and support operations efficiently without breaking the bank.
What Is a Softphone?
The word softphone is a combination of “software” and “phone”. It describes VoIP applications that allow you to make and receive calls and send text messages over the Internet.
Softphones often run on specialized call center software and offer numerous advanced features and integrations.
We couldn’t wait to leave our previous VoIP provider and CloudTalk didn’t disappoint. Easy to set up and good call quality. Very easy integration with HubSpot.
How Does a Softphone Work?
Softphones use VoIP to digitize analog signals from your microphone (i.e., your voice), convert them into data packets, and send them over your network to a receiver, where they’re transformed back into audible sound.
Instead of SIM cards, softphones let you call users via their virtual numbers and reach them across all devices.
Unlike other VoIP systems we’ve used, such as AirCall or Dialpad, CloudTalk genuinely listens to your queries. None of this fake – “We appreciate your feedback.”… Instead, CloudTalk listens to you, goes off, and does it – GREAT!
