Are calls on VoIP secure?

Yes, we make sure that our systems are always secure on our end. In general, your VoIP phone system offers more security features than traditional landlines.

It’s good practice to secure your data networks on your end. Choose a secure password that you don’t use elsewhere, memorize your security PIN, and you will enjoy a strong phone system.

Can I take my phone number with me when I travel?

Yes, of course. As long as you have access to the internet, your VoIP phone system can follow you.

Two of the top advantages of having a hosted VoIP service is the portability and cost. You can continue to take calls via smartphone, laptop, or even an analog phone if you have the right adapter/router.

Some countries may restrict SIP-based internet traffic, so check before you fly. Additionally, E911 address information should be updated so you can reach emergency services.

What is QoS (Quality of Service), and why is it important?

Quality of Service (QoS) is a service that allows you to prioritize your internet to your VoIP devices. Most users won’t need to meddle with it, but if you do, Vantact support will guide you.
