Softphone or Mobile – A Third Option

softphoneVoIP News brings up an interesting quandary for businesses: softphones or mobile phones?

They discuss the benefits and drawbacks of each option:

Everyone already has a mobile phone, so it makes sense to use them. BYOD is so popular already. And for employees that spend time working out of the office, a mobile phone is a valuable tool.

But softphones offer even more benefits. They are usually a free software included with your unified communications solution. Softphones can often function much like a desk phone, so productivity is not lessened. And they have the advantage of a more professional appearance than using a cell phone number.

The decision seems difficult, but we suggest a third option: a mobile softphone.

gloCOM is a business softphone that can be used on desktop or mobile. Whether sitting at a desk with your IP handset, working from a laptop, or on the road with just your smart phone, you can have the same number and expansive functionality.

Don’t worry about making the choice – you can have the best of both worlds. Visit our website to learn more about gloCOM today.
