How to design the best support structure for VoIP deployments

Posted by Daniel Noworatzky on Aug 10, 2022 10:50:00 AM

Information and Communications Technology (ICT) often comprises a substantial portion of the budget for many businesses, a large part of which goes to paying the wages of support staff.

However, smaller businesses have limited budgets and few ICT-related tasks to justify a full-time or even a part-time ICT position. It’s more difficult for these firms to support their communications systems without wasting valuable and often scarce resources.
