The Call 48 Guide to Measuring VoIP Scalability

If the pandemic taught us anything, it’s that in a moment’s notice a business might not only slow down, but it might hit a meteoric boom in need. Call 48 offers complete scalability and flexibility to our customers. But when we speak about scalability, we mean much more than adding phone lines and features.

Scalability and flexibility go hand in hand as they adjust to the demands of an active business. But they don’t mean the same thing. They differ in the sense that flexibility also refers to the way users configure and employ features. The ability to change components as needed contributes to a system’s efficiency overall. Even if adding lines is a simple process, the time it takes to setup and modify needs factoring too. This is where usability and scalability collide.

Of course, everyone wants to focus on growth. Scalability is perfect for adding new lines and features as your business demands grow. But did you know that scalability also pertains to when a system needs to downsize? Don’t look at VoIP service and solutions downsizing as a bad thing. In many ways, it’s not. Businesses also need to downsize for a variety of growth purposes. The modern workforce spends less time in the office, either working from home ortelecommuting on the road, so accessibility directly determines a system’s scalability.

Call 48 is able to measure the effects a system’s tools have on its efficiency. The importance of scalable communications includes benefits such as decreased transition time, cost reduction, market resilience and increased communications efficiency. In regards to accessibility, a scalable system must also be compatible
with a range of devices.

Our Origination Footprint is Bigger and Size Matters

Is your provider’s footprint just not big enough?

If you are a wholesale, private label or reseller customer looking for a phone number, look no further than Call 48. A VoIP carrier footprint by definition means the area where Call 48 has access to sell our own DID phone numbers. We have taken the time and spent the money and resources to offer complete coverage of the United States from over 13,000 rate centers, more than 180 LATAs, plus nearly 120 other countries.

This means your provider doesn’t own or have enough access to sell different phone numbers from around the country. And when this happens, they have to source the phone numbers you have requested and need from other providers and resell them. Many will not do this because it takes time, which is a waste to them and it isn’t affordable, so they won’t spend the money.

Call 48 has taken the time and spent the money so you don’t have to.

Call 48 is a premier CPAAS provider offering the United States as our On-Net footprint. On-Net means we have done the expensive and heavy-lifting work for you. This is our infrastructure and our phone numbers.

With Call 48, you gain access from rate centers where we are registered with NPAC (the Number Portability Administration Center) and where we have infrastructure and tandem circuitry to receive calls in and out of those networks. Not only has Call 48 incurred the costs to do this, we also have multiple regulatory filings and approvals as well as state filings.

The Process of Call 48 Local Number Porting

The most common question a new VoIP customer will always ask is “Can I keep my existing number?” It’s one of those questions that no matter how many times you have heard that you can do this when switching from a traditional phone line to VoIP usage, people still want it confirmed. In order to keep the number, it needs to be ported to the new provider. Here Call 48 explains what number porting is and how to port your phone number over to us.

To keep the old phone number it needs to be moved by a method called Local Number Portability (LNP), or “porting”. Porting is a process which allows users to move their phone numbers from one network or provider to another. There are a number of reasons why someone may wish to do so such as contact consistency, memorability (do you know anyone’s phone number that’s not saved in your phone?), publicity and company branding.

Porting a number from the traditional phone line to VoIP is possible, but not always an available service. In many cases, the former provider will only port for a ‘goodbye’ fee. It’s done mostly in an last-ditch attempt to keep you as their customer and also as a severance payment. In landline to VoIP transitions, local number portability encounters a only few challenges. For one, telephone providers may be restricted in their network’s reach, so users transferring to another city or country simply go out of bounds. As well, local number portability requires a person or business’ registration to match the records both providers have on hand, meaning a number assigned to different individuals, although in the same company or family, does not work.

If you are switching from traditional phone landlines to VoIP, you’ll find the change very simple with only a few steps. All you have to do is activate an account, plug-in a call device, disable the old phone line, and you are off making VoIP calls! Businesses may spend additional time configuring voice menus and other fun VoIP capabilities to suit their needs, but the whole process is incredibly straightforward nonetheless. From VoIP provider to VoIP provider, however, porting cannot typically happen because users do not own the virtual numbers assigned; they instead belong to the network as a whole.

Call 48 assigns all numbers automatically through our proprietary backend VoIP Portal system. It provides a wide variety of local and toll-free number area codes to pick from, so users will find their options abundant. See for yourself and follow this link through to the DID numbers page. Speaking with the VoIP provider directly is also a good move to see if there are exceptions or alternatives, so do not hesitate to get in touch.

To get more information about number porting, please contact a member of the Call 48 porting team to see if you can take your number with you to VoIP.

In today’s telecom industry there is a tremendous amount of regulatory trends.

Call 48 has solved the problem of not getting the DIDs you need from one provider.

And you get the best pricing because you’ve aggregated it all through one provider.

When a provider doesn’t have the phone number you need it’s because they are either out of inventory or simply don’t have that footprint. In the case that they don’t have the inventory, you have to put in a special request, then wait 2-3 weeks while they attempt to fulfill it. If they don’t have the footprint, it means they don’t even have the ability to offer the phone number to you. In this case, they have to try to get it from someone else, which will cost them more money and in the end will cost you more money.

In both of these scenarios, you are waiting. And time is money. So you either need to start shopping for another provider to get you the DID you need and you have wasted your time. Not to mention your customer’s…
