For most Edinburgh businesses with standard business broadband, VoIP will work without any issues. We always check your connection speed and quality as part of our assessment before recommending a VoIP solution.",{"@type":366,"name":372,"acceptedAnswer":373},"What happens to our VoIP system if the broadband goes down?",{"@type":369,"text":374},"If your broadband goes down, VoIP calls over that connection won't work.

Modern IP-compatible desk phones can usually be reused on a VoIP system. Older analogue handsets can't be used directly but can work with an adaptor. Many businesses opt to use VoIP via a mobile app or computer softphone rather than desk phones at all, which eliminates hardware cost entirely. We'll assess your existing equipment and recommend the most cost-effective approach.",{"@type":366,"name":384,"acceptedAnswer":385},"How is VoIP different from using WhatsApp or Teams calls?",{"@type":369,"text":386},"WhatsApp and Teams are consumer or collaboration tools — they work well for internal communication but aren't designed to replace a business phone system.
