Save money on your Twilio telecoms package

If you are a Twilio customer you can save over 50% on your monthly incoming calls and number charges. Twilio allows you to use your own SIP trunks for inbound call in a feature called ‘Bring Your Own Carrier Trunking’, or BYOC. Our BYOC solution gives you a Barritel SIP Trunk for your incoming calls and numbers. It will save your business money every month and give you more control. Here’s how!

Phone systems, hardware, integrations, and airtime are normally bundled together into one package. Package deals usually cost less but in telecoms, no one company does everything so you may be paying for multiple suppliers and costs increase. BYOC allows you to utilise your own voice carrier and keep control better control of your voice connectivity and costs. Your business can make big savings on inbound calls while continuing to benefit from Twilio’s powerful functionality.

Is your business prepared for the public phone switch off?

BT will be switching off the Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN) and Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN). If your business uses an analogue phone line you will lose service completely unless you upgrade to an internet based system. The old copper wire system was first developed in the late 1800’s and is just not suitable for modern day communications so it’s time to change for all of us.

While the switch off is scheduled for 2025 it makes sense to get things set up now, before the inevitable last minute rush. Barritel provide cloud based telephony solutions that will get your business ready for the big switch off!

Why act now?

2025 may seem a while away but the next couple of years will pass in a flash. Why not get things set up now and you can relax and not need to worry about it again? The switch off will affect telephone lines, but the old phone system is connected to other things like alarms, door entry systems, and lifts etc so it might be a bigger job than you think.

Switching sooner rather than later also means your business can enjoy all the benefits and savings that VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), will provide. VoIP phone systems can provide lots of extra features and the benefits of integration with other systems.

The Benefits of VoIP

1. Flexibility

VoIP is a cloud-based, wireless solution that relies only on an internet connection. This means you can work from anywhere, on any device. With the ability to link your business applications and systems with video chat, calls and collaboration, you will be closer to customers and colleagues alike. With everything in the cloud, you and your employees will be able to access systems from anywhere, working from wherever you want.

2. Scalability

Far easier and cheaper to scale up or down and respond to home working needs locally and internationally. There are no old fashioned fixed line charges. Systems can be created to match your specific needs now and in the future. Reporting suite enables you to see how the system is being used and identify opportunities to improve productivity and save costs.

3. Keep your Number - add regional or local numbers

When switching you can keep your existing business phone numbers. Often your phone number is a part of your branding and a key way to connect to loyal customers. You may have even spent time and money promoting it. We make it really simple to retain your existing business number. We can also help you set up a network local numbers to help attract new local business.

4. Versatile and Easy to Use

Make or receive your calls from mobile, tablet, desktop computer, laptop or headset. VoIP provides key features like voicemail, call divert, call hold, contact directory, call transfer, call forwarding, number withholding and the online hub puts you in complete control. Your phone system can also be integrated with other key business systems to keep you ahead of your competitors.

5. Cost

VoIP will be cheaper than the old legacy PSTN and ISDN systems. There are no line rental charges and the whole system is so much more flexible so costs depend upon what you want in terms of numbers and minutes (for inbound and outbound calls), functionality, connectivity to other systems, and handsets.

So, if it’s cheaper, and better, why wait two years to upgrade? Let’s chat about what you want and see how we can help.
