What is POTS - Business Telephone Services

Dear Metro:

I see on your site that you offer a selection of business telephone services - but I have never heard of POTS. Is this something new? What is it? What are the advantages/disadvantages for a small business?

Dear Meryl,

Thank you for checking out the CNSG website Voice Services page. We offer POTS, ISDN / PRI, Integrated T-1 / PRI, VOIP Dynamic T-1, VOIP PRI, Hosted IP-PBX, SIP Trunking, and Conference Calling.

...and to be honest, "POTS" is the least exciting of them! POTS stands for Plain Old Telephone Service - and is just that, the basic home and small business service that you are already familiar with. For many very small businesses, this kind of telephone service is all that they really need.

However, as technology has grown and our needs expand, things like VoIP do allow us the greater flexibility and opportunities to do business in a new way.

If you are interested in any of our telephone services from POTS to Conference Calling - please give us a call at 1.866.738.1662, or contact us through our website.

Thanks for your question and have a great day!

Metro
