Give Me Some of that VoIP Minacom is Using

Hey, you're new around here aren't ya? Did you know you can every post FREE in your EMAIL or via RSS? Oh and if you're a Twit like me you can follow me on Twitter HERE. Enjoy the post.

I just wrote a really thought provoking and interesting post on Minacom’s VoIP call quality report that was released yesterday, but my server keeps bombing because of all the love i am getting from this post and I lost the entire thing.

So all you get is what I can remember….

The report they released holds little weight in respect to the experience of most consumers using VoIP. I use three different classifications of VoIP everyday, and none of them are quite on-par with a PSTN line (as to why I still have one). I found it interesting that this report was the exact opposite of the one Brix Networks released last month (which I tend to agree with). I guess this is what happens when one company tests the call quality of the “perfect system” and the other tests “the real world” system.

I think I ended by stating that if the industry continues to send out this kind of information (mis-information in some respects), that consumers will end up misinformed and disatisfied, which will result in a negative public perception of VoIP, that will leave many of us fighting an up-hill battle when selling and or marketing VoIP products and services.

I assure you the original version was much better. Guess I should have listened when I was told to “frequently save my work.”
