POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) is the traditional copper-wire landline phone system that's been around for over a century. VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) makes calls over the internet instead. POTS is reliable for basic voice; VoIP is cheaper, more flexible, and far more feature-rich.
As telecom providers retire POTS copper networks, businesses are switching to VoIP. RingVersa VoIP starts at $14.95 per user per month and includes unlimited calling, auto attendant, voicemail-to-email, and mobile apps — features POTS simply can't offer.
