What is a VoIP phone line?
A VoIP (or Voice over Internet Protocol) allows you to make calls and send texts via broadband internet rather than grounded phone lines or cellular networks. You get to choose a phone number for your project or organization that will be connected to you as a user, not attached to any specific device, location, or SIM card. As long as you have access to high-speed internet, VoIP phone numbers can connect you to anyone else with a phone number.
How does VoIP work?
With VoIP technology, your voice is converted into a digital signal and transmitted to whoever you’re speaking with via the internet. That means it doesn’t rely on fiber optic cables or radio waves to transmit data, but you will need reliable internet to get the best out of VoIP services. Most VoIP providers have a mobile or desktop app that they use to make calls, send texts, or check their voicemail. At Epik, our desktop and mobile apps are simple and easy to use alongside your other Epik services.
Benefits of VoIP services
Digital phone services are used by millions of individuals and businesses around the world to connect—here are a few reasons why they’ve become so popular.
Personal Privacy
Apart from the increasingly annoying normalization of phone scams, it just makes sense to keep your private phone numbers private. A dedicated phone line can be used all over the web, in industry directories, and on official paperwork, giving you an extra layer of separation between your home and work lives.
Work/Life Balance
When your professional line is accessed through an app, you have much more power over the constant bombardment of organization-related communications. It’s simpler to switch it off when it’s time for family or leisure time and to take calls when it works best for you.
Increased Professionalism
Having a separate and local phone number, with call waiting and a professional voicemail message, can increase your reputation in the field as an organized professional.
Scalability & Flexibility
VoIP is great for anyone constantly moving or traveling or living the work-from-anywhere lifestyle. And you can adapt your services to fit your needs. Adding employees or members? Growing your audience? It’s simple to pivot and expand with an internet phone line. Additionally, you get to choose your own area code so that you can serve your community from afar.
Low Overhead
You’re probably already paying for internet and mobile data. VoIP numbers work with utilities and equipment you already have. You can use whatever internet-capable devices you’re comfortable with—all for a flat monthly rate that is much lower than traditional or mobile phone lines.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make VoIP phone calls if my power goes out?
+
Sure! You can take your VoIP line with you anywhere there’s WiFi. So, if your homebase WiFi isn’t working due to a power issue, you can set up shop at your local cafe or library and continue working. You can also get around this issue by setting up a battery backup for your devices and internet hardware or by setting up call forwarding to redirect any calls you get to your cell phone.
Do I need an actual phone to make phone calls?
+Nope. You can make VoIP calls from your desktop computer, your laptop, your tablet, or any device that has 1) a speaker or headset, 2) a mic, 3) a good internet connection.
Does my business need a phone number?
+Generally, yes. Ideally you’ll at least have one to list on necessary legal or government forms or one you can point to on your website or list in your email signature.
Will using my business phone number impact my Internet speed?
+Probably not. If using VoIP causes you to have internet issues, your internet may not be robust enough to handle the system to start with.
Can I make and receive phone calls from outside the United States?
+Yes. VoIP uses the internet, not grounded phone lines or cell towers. You can make digital phone calls just the same as you can send an email from Pittsburgh to Singapore.
If my brand grows, can I scale up my VoIP system?
+Yes! VoIP systems are hosted in the cloud and scalable, so it’s easy to make simple upgrades as your company or project gets bigger or expands. Instead of costly infrastructure upgrades, your employees or members can use the devices they’re already using to do work.
Can people see that I’m calling from a VoIP number?
+Generally not. Their caller ID will display the 10-digit number attached to your line and sometimes the matching city and state (not necessarily where you are actually calling from). There usually isn’t anything advertising that you’re using a VoIP number.
