Free VoIP

Make A Free International Call - Now!

This is the most attractive feature of VoIP. With it you can talk to anybody anywhere in the world - free.

All you have to do is to sign up with a VoIP service provider. Download its free software and start talking to anybody who has the same software on his/her computer. The best way to go about this is to email your friends and relatives to download the software of the VoIP provider you have signed up with and you are set to talk to your heart's content without ever worrying about telephone bills at all. This is the cheapest voip solution in the voip phone system. The only cost to you is your internet connection bill.

For talking free you don't need any sophisticated equipment either. A headset would be good but your regular speakers and small microphone can do the job equally well. Another requirement is a broadband or dsl internet connection.

How To Find Free Internet Phones?

Almost all VoIP providers give you this free service. Skype is one of such free VoIP service providers. But there are many others also that you can find on the internet.. Try a few for voice quality and other service features and then settle for the one that you find the most suitable for your needs.

While broadband connection is becoming cheaper and easily available all over the world, it usually costs more than a dial-up connection. So if you don't want to go for or cannot get a broadband connection, you may look for VoIP providers that run on both broadband and dial-up connection.

Limitations of Free VoIP

The totally free VoIP service has certain limitations:

You can talk free only with those people who are using the same downloadable voip software as you. This is one downside of free pc-to-pc VoIP. To overcome this problem, some VoIP providers have peer to peer arrangements with other specific providers by which you can call users of other VoIP providers. But this arrangement is not universal yet.

Another thing with pc-to-pc free VoIP is that the person whom you call should be online when you make the call - this means that you may not be able to reach the other person any time you want as you can do with a regular telephone. This is the main disadvantage of free pc-to-pc VoIP.

And naturally you cannot call someone who doesn't have a computer.

Here is where Softphone (PC-to-Phone) and Internet Phone (Phone-to-Phone) VoIP comes to your aid.
With these you can talk to anybody with a regular telephone anytime you want. And they are almost free compared to what you are used to paying for the use of your traditional phone.

Near zero cost of Internet Phones is enough to make them attractive any day but most have other features that are even far more attractive and which no traditional phone can provide. This is the reason of the growing popularity of VoIP.
