The success of Skype produced a group of competitors, some of whom made aggressive advances into the conventional telecoms market. The appearance of ‘Skype Phones’ and private and residential VoIP plans offered by some companies threaten to render copper wire services outdated. Many large corporations have already moved over to VoIP for business telephony, while a new wave of Smartphone VoIP applications could undermine even mobile telephone calls. As internet connections keep on improving, VoIP appears set to further encroach on conventional telephone administrators and may yet create itself as the telecommunications standard for the 21st century.
VoIP’s continued rise both in private and business sectors is not a surprise, as the quality, convenience and adaptability of VoIP services continues to rise. As indicated by Infonetics (News - Alert) Research, there were more than 203 million worldwide residential VoIP subscribers in the first half of 2013. Globally, residential and business VoIP services rose three percent to $33 billion.
A more developed and brighter future is anticipated in VoIP industry. Many are expecting more and it is certain that innovation won't stop as years pass by. :)
