However, in addition to usage charges, there’s a set monthly fee for each line, so how many lines a company has becomes a critical cost element. Other important considerations are whether the calls are complete in a timely manner and the quality of the connections.

Know your long distance costs — Is your long distance carrier billing you incorrectly under your service contract? For many companies, the answer is too often yes. To ferret this cost savings out, have a telecom system integrator that understands long distance service contracts audit your long distance traffic every six months and compare it to the terms of your long distance service contract.
