The advantage of this technology is that it can be used to make a voice call from one computer to another computer, from a computer to a conventional phone or cell phone, and from one phone to another phone. Most important, these calls can be made at very low rates. Experts predict that almost 75% of world traffic will move on to VoIP over the next five years.
When VoIP technology was first used to make voice calls it was from a computer to another computer. At that time, the voice quality was not good, and only a few geeks used it. The usage underwent a revolution when companies like Vonage and Comcast introduced VoIP phones. These phones, which are attached to high-speed broadband lines, work like conventional phones.
Since VoIP technology depends upon Internet, security and privacy are major concerns. In order to allow privacy and good sound quality and security against viruses, worms, Trojans and spywares, most of VoIP service providers use their own secure lines and patented technologies.
