If your Albany-area business is still using traditional phone lines, you’re likely overpaying by 40-60% compared to modern business VoIP. But cost savings are just the beginning — here’s a full comparison to help you decide.
Cost Comparison
| Feature | Traditional | VoIP |
|---|---|---|
| Per line cost | $40-80/line/mo | $15-30/user/mo |
| Long distance | Per-minute charges | Unlimited included |
| Auto-attendant | $50-200/mo add-on | Included |
| Mobile app | Not available | Included |
| Video conferencing | Separate subscription | Included |
| Call recording | Expensive add-on | Included |
A typical 10-line Albany office spending $600-800/month on traditional service can expect to pay $150-300/month on VoIP — saving $4,000-6,000 per year.
Reliability Concerns
