TDS® rolls out hosted VoIP solution in 17th state: South Carolina

Businesses in parts of South Carolina near Williston, North, and Norway now have access to next generation VoIP solution.

TDS Telecommunications Corp. (TDS®) makes South Carolina the 17th state where it will offer managedIP Hosted. A Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) communications solution, managedIP Hosted integrates voice and data into a single communications solution. It’s now available to businesses in North, Norway, and Williston, S.C.

TDS offers managedIP Hosted with no upfront capital costs and a low monthly fee, a benefit to businesses in today’s tough economy. Unlike other Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service providers, TDS managedIP Hosted never uses the Public Internet.

With managedIP Hosted, businesses discover improved productivity and greater efficiencies. Take for example, Campbell Hausfeld in Mt. Juliet, Tenn. The company manufactures gas pressure washers and electric airless paint sprayers. Locally, they employ about 60 people. Prior to switching to TDS, Campbell Hausfeld had an archaic phone system that was hard to manage.

“Since switching to TDS managedIP Hosted, we have new technology and no worries with less cost,” said Tina Whitaker of Campbell Hausfeld. “When you’re a business and working with other businesses and major retailers, but can’t talk because the phones are down for hours on end people get frustrated. We don’t have to worry about any of that anymore. They are always working, all the time. It’s a good feeling.”

Yes, a phone system can alleviate the worry. But it’s not just any phone system. With managed IP Hosted, businesses can focus on their business, customers, and clients while TDS manages, protects, and upgrades the communications system—at no additional cost.

TDS managedIP Hosted offers businesses many real-time benefits, including:
No upfront capital expense or upgrade costs. 
Built-in maintenance, which includes software upgrades and releases—no need to worry about outdated equipment.
Advanced call routing features means customers never get a busy signal and all calls get through the first time.  
A single phone number for employees to give customers, which can be set to ring multiple phones (office, cell, and home) simultaneously.
User friendly administration to quickly and easily adjust for staffing changes or simply switching work stations without calling the phone company—saves time and money.
