Over the past few decades, there have been numerous brands exiting the VoIP space: Panasonic, Samsung and Toshiba are just there. Some have disappeared because they have seen diminishing returns and have realised that their models no longer apply. And others, such as Nortel, have simply gone bankrupt.
In any conversation about phones these days, you’re bound to hear the idea of a hosted VoIP phone system come up. That’s in large part because of how much tech is reaching the cloud by now, but the significance goes deeper. After all, a phone system that you don’t need to have on-site, managed entirely in the cloud? That’s an idea with immediate appeal to most anyone.
