THE EXPERTS AT TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT
CORPORATION WILL HELP PROVIDE THE ANSWERS.


Voice Over IP (VoIP)/IP Telephony is all the rage these days. Many are concerned that this technology will require a wholesale replacement and displacement of billions of dollars of costly legacy systems that function perfectly well as voice transmission technology. VoIP or IP Telephony offers the promise of significantly less expensive services. Users can initiate and receive IP phone calls via PC-to-PC, Phone-to-PC or PC-to-Phone and Phone-to-Phone. Today, there is no doubt that the technology works and is generating revenues.
