"With technology improving the quality of service provided by the segments of VoIP aided calling cards and VoIP cellular, these sectors not only offer the best of savings but offer the best quality scope as well."
With many major advantages the sector of calling cards has been often hailed as one of the top 25 telecommunication developments of the century. In short, the tourism sectors along with business visits’ segment and immigration have been largely benefited via the calling card concept. There are many types of calling cards and the base of their differentiation is often the technology that is supporting the functioning at the backend.
Most of these long distance calling products use VoIP as their core technology. And with a lot of development going in the VoIP based calling cards segment, there are many aspects which are either revamped or just cut-off hence VoIP-run calling cards offer better economics.
Step by Step Working of VoIP Enabled Calling Cards:
• Users are required to dial in to a regular telephone number.
• Authentication needs to be done by entering the pin of the prepaid card.
• Now, the users need to dial in the international phone number
The IVR system is generally offered for getting additional information like balance, working etc. Once the balance of the calling card is over, either a refill can be done or a new card can be purchased, whatever is best suited. The most important advantage which calling cards provide over the traditional landlines and mobile phones is a good amount of savings in terms of long distance calls. Calling cards can be availed over the internet directly which add to the convenience factor as well. But with more technological development fuelling this segment, it will better match the traditional mobile phone segment in terms of convenience as well.
Like calling cards’ segment another immensely potential sector is - cellular VoIP. Cellular VoIP or VoIP cellular is the technology of offering internet aided phone plans on the cell phone.
In the same league, it offers a lot of savings in terms of long distance calls as ‘standard call time minutes’ concept isn’t used here. Earlier, a major issue with cellular VoIP was the quality of sound and a certain time lag between speaking and hearing but there are many VoIP cellular service providers who provide a good bandwidth ratio and other aspects for better functioning.
Right now, VoIP on mobiles is perhaps the most popular calling solution in the market. It will definitely be more popular in future. Companies like Vonage, www.axvoice.com and Packet 8 have made their service quickly compatible with the mobiles. However, the calling card technique i think will not be as popular as we are expecting it to be.
