It’s long been the conventional wisdom that you could save your company money – and make yourself look good – by suggesting a switch from a traditional business phone system to a VoIP system. The reality, though, is less clear-cut. If you have to buy a new system because you’re expanding or moving, VoIP will be both cheaper and more capable than a traditional solution. But if you have a traditional system that is partly or fully paid for, there’s no guarantee that the financial payoff from investing in a new VoIP solution, as opposed to keeping your existing system, will be as impressive as the conventional wisdom suggests.
Without a doubt, technology has revolutionized the way business is done. The vast majority of internal and external communication is now done through email, instant messaging, VOIP and other types of electronic communication. In addition, most business documents exist in digital form. The digitization of business has had significant implications for litigation. Legal eDiscovery is now an essential part of settling cases between organizations. Previously, many companies believed that eDiscovery was only for organizations that were public or highly regulated, but now most companies recognize that electronically stored information (ESI) regulations are applicable to all organizations and there is an ever-increasing need for cost-effective eDiscovery.
