Greetings....I have 2 seperate facilites in Haiti, each with a broadband satellite connection, that I would like to establish VoIP service to my headquarter's office in the USA. The VoIP service should allow each facility to communicate with each other and also to the US office. Not sure how to kick off this project or determine suitable VoIP systems. Please let me know how I can better clarify. |

You just need 3 digital-analog adapters. You can sign up with any plan, request 3 adapters, send 2 to Haiti, and keep one here. Each adapter will have a unique US phone number and all calls to each other are free. |

What type of service providers and plans do you recommend? Due to the infrastructure of Haiti, no analog POTS service is available to the 2 facilities. Cell phones are current voice medium. Any work around suggestions? |

As long as you have high-speed internet access, the VOIP adapter should work fine. You can then attach any ordinary phones to the adapters and send calls thru the internet. No land line needed. The other possibility is to use Skype (Skype.com) for free. I've heard that the Skype call qualities are excellent, but have no direct experience. VOIP companies vary a lot in what they charge, but from what I've seen, their call qualities are about the same (echos and statics can be fairly bothersome at times). I have Broadvox Direct, which has very poor tech support and web site account management page. There are also Lingo and Vonage, AT&T Callvantage, etc. |

You should definitly try Skype (http://www.skype.com/). I have been creating a large directory of all the Skype phones and software add-ons available for Skype at SummitCircle.com (http://www.summitcircle.com/)... there are plenty of choices. If you want your users to be able to continue to use "regular" phones you can read the article I posted on SummitCircle.com (http://www.summitcircle.com/wsnlinks/skypephones.html) explaining all the different skype phone hardware options available. There are all sorts of options that allow you to plug "regular" phones into your computer and use Skype/or regular phone network. Good Luck, Phil. |

a VoIP telephone system would allow you to link the 3 offices together like one big phone system. http://www.teleco4.com |
