VoIP
UAB IT offers a voice over internet protocol solution, known as VoIP, which offers clear audio quality, voicemail-to-email capability and other new features. The Cisco telephone service relies on internet connections rather than traditional phone lines. The VoIP phone system creates redundancies to ensure we have better backups and provides more updated features.
