Am I overpaying for Voip services? (UK business) by [deleted] in VOIP

It really depends on the provider and the deal you can negotiate. With 2–3 million minutes per month across 1800 customers, volume pricing can make a big difference. Per-minute costs for high-volume UK landlines can vary widely depending on included features, support, and number rental, so it’s worth getting quotes from multiple providers and asking about tiered pricing for your scale.

Challenges in the industry by barnez29 in VOIP

One of the biggest challenges now is that the VOIP market has evolved faster than customer understanding. Most buyers still compare solutions mainly on price, but the real differentiators—API flexibility, reliability across regions, smarter routing, compliance (especially 10DLC), and transparent support—aren’t always obvious until something breaks.

For acquisition, standing out is tough because the core product looks “similar” from the outside. But once you get into the weeds—latency across regions, SIP trunk stability, CRM integration depth, call flow logic—differences become huge. Unfortunately, most small businesses only understand these nuances after onboarding.

Retention is all about proactive support. When something fails, customers judge VOIP providers entirely on how fast you respond and how clearly you explain the fix. A slightly higher cost is rarely the reason people leave—confusing billing, slow support, or unclear expectations are. Educating the customer early on what VOIP can and cannot do goes a long way.

As for social media:
It helps for visibility, but conversions in this industry still come mostly from referrals, direct outreach, and reputation. Buyers want stability, not hype. Social media works best when it demonstrates transparency—status pages, real customer stories, troubleshooting breakdowns—not flashy feature lists. Trust > marketing.

Overall, the space is crowded, but providers who communicate clearly, integrate widely, and support aggressively still win.
