Voice over internet or VoIP is the technique of transmitting voice over internet. Though it sounds esoteric, the technology has been in use for a long time.
Many people are familiar with and use Skype, Line, WhatsApp or WeChat to communicate. These mainstream apps are all based on VoIP technology.
According to a market study at ResearchAndMarkets.com, internet telephony is already big business in the US and EU with total revenue reaching 46.9 Billion USD in 2020. Most telecom service providers have replaced legacy circuit switched technology with VoIP.
But in Taiwan VoIP technology is not only unfamiliar, it is often treated with skepticism. With the improvements in VoIP over the last ten years, the technology now has clear advantages for telephony.
Common misconceptions about VoIP
Historically, due to poor network conditions and inferior technology, the promotion of VoIP services in Taiwan was met with resistance. Customer expectations were not met, and adoption of the service suffered as a result.
The poor quality service and customer dissatisfaction was not due to VoIP technology, but to poor execution and bad timing.
With the dramatic improvements in bandwidth and reliability in the last ten years, VoIP has become the undisputed standard for voice communication. Major phone companies like AT&T, Verizon, Deutsche Telekom, and British Telecom have all migrated to VoIP technology for their phone network. The latest mobile voice standard VoLTE is based on VoIP.
