But what exactly is VoIP and how will having a local digital cable company (Inter Mountain Cable) as your provider affect your phone service?
According to VoIPreview, one of the market leaders in the VoIP search business, the concept for VoIP originated in the mid '90s, when people began to recognize the possibility of sending data packets over the Internet to communicate. Early versions of VoIP could only be used between people who had the same software on their computers, a compatible sound card and a microphone. However, the sound quality that customers received with early VoIP was not very good. Despite these inconveniences, people reveled in the fact that they could make long distance phone calls without paying the higher prices charged by most long distance providers.

The good news for you is that Digital Phone quality has increased significantly since these early days. Now, people are switching to VoIP without even realizing it and raving over the “Crystal Clear” communication quality that they are receiving. Inter Mountain Cable offers Digital Phone (VoIP) with all of our service bundles so that you don’t have to worry about high pricing when deciding to switch to our service.
More good news about Digital Phone (VoIP) services is its new and improved security features. When VoIP first gained popularity, many companies lacked the ability to provide 911 services with their service. Inter Mountain Cable has made it a priority that all future customers that are switching their phone service to us WILL receive the ability of E-911 service.
Another security-type issue that was a problem with early VoIP service was that if the electricity went out, customers would lose their phone connections. VoIP providers are now more adept at finding ways to prolong their phone service when the power goes out. For example, Inter Mountain Cable is offering a new service called “Find Me” for Digital Phone customers. “Find Me” gives you the ability to add additional phone numbers to your calling plan, such as your cell phone, so if the power goes out or there is a loss of broadband service, your calls will be forwarded to that number that you specify with Inter Mountain Cable.
But before you decide if VoIP is right for you, it is important to remember that VoIP service requires a high speed cable internet connection. If you don't currently have Internet service, Inter Mountain Cable offers many bundle packages that will save you money when combining both digital phone and high speed cable internet services. If you already have high-speed Internet or are interested in getting high-speed internet in addition to Inter Mountain Cable Digital Phone service, it is cost-effective to order digital phone “VoIP” service from Inter Mountain Cable.
