Comments on: Hosted VOIP ain’t all that http://gigaom.com/2004/12/13/hosted-voip-aint-all-that/ Sat, 11 Feb 2012 12:44:45 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Gibson http://gigaom.com/2004/12/13/hosted-voip-aint-all-that/#comment-99408 Wed, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000 http://gigaom.wordpress.com/2004/12/13/hosted-voip-aint-all-that/#comment-99408 The model just hasn’t been proven, you’re right. But it’s the next Hotmail when it does. Once the industry realizes a method to leverage all of the existing pops, like a network such as Primus, then the hosted IP PBX features offered at a yearly fee or next to free will cause a rush of people going into the service. From an enterprise point of view, yes it’s a hard sell. Going with consumer based products you will benefit faster and work closer to the dollar than being the enterprise company unless you are a Guru of VoIP and promise to personally hold the hand of the companies you are deploying day and night. Consumers are more forgiving and have no problem putting 60 – 300 dollars a year extra on a credit card. That’s my 2 cents.
