Internet Telephony: The Good and Bad

Mobile phones have become such an important part of the world that they are as much a permanent part of our existence as our voices are. Communication services are large part of companies and the phone service companies have definitely taken a huge chunk of business profits and now businesses are looking for better ways to communicate and share information or collaborate. Enter mobile VoIP. One of the advantages of using it is that it eliminates indoor cellular dead zones. Less interruptions can be useful if you are always holding important teleconferences. Internet phones also reduce costs that are related to long distance and international calling, employees needing certain devices, and even carrier charges. On the down side, VoIP services are lacking when it comes to security compared to other technologies. How do you weigh the pros and cons?
