Can Desktop IP Phone Work with My Mobile Phone?

Can a Desktop IP Phone Work with My Mobile Phone? Many businesses must prioritize the client service experience while embracing flexible work schedules in their service departments.  Clients have been asking us “Can my Desktop IP Phone work with my mobile phone?”

The answer is yes. Businesses can communicate from anywhere when their employees use mobile devices with their IP phones.

Even if the home or office has a VoIP based phone system, you can still use mobile phones as VoIP phones rather than running to your desk as soon as you get a call. VoIP is the best way to save a massive amount of time because you are not tethered to a desk. If your home office has a WiFi network it is easy to use the mobile app.

You get all of the features you’d expect from a SIP phone, transfer commands, voicemail and outbound caller ID. It’s an ideal solution for the business people who are in need of an office phone but are on the road often.

There are many advantages one can benefit from by having VoIP on their mobile device. This offers ample flexibility and cut down business expenses. 

Bring Your Own Device

BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) is a new concept in the business world where employees can choose their own devices such as mobile phones, computers, and tablets for work. BYOD is gaining massive popularity in the business arena, as many are showing interest in using their devices. BYOD is allowing employees to turn the mobile devices that are in their pockets into the office mobiles with the help of VoIP technology.

VoIP phone systems will allow you to send voice messages and communications in the form of data packets through the internet. Many VoIP providers are offering great features that are converting the mobile phone into the office phone allowing the business sales team to attend the client calls on the go officially.

For instance, the call routing option available in VoIP will allow you to set the VoIP phone number to follow the employee who is sitting in the other office or home or to their mobile number. The employees can easily make a call using the caller ID.
