POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) is going the way of dial-up internet and flip phones. At WilloWeb, we know the thought of ditching those copper lines might make you nostalgic—but it’s time to move on. Here’s the deal:
Why Replace POTS Lines?
- They’re Pricey: Some businesses shell out $500 a month per line. Ouch.
They’re Basic: POTS can’t handle video calls, messages, or any other modern magic.
They’re Fading: Telecom companies are pulling the plug—literally.
Regulations Say So: The FCC is nudging everyone toward digital systems.
Modern Alternatives
- VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol):
- Cheap, flexible, and packed with features like call forwarding and video conferencing.
- Wireless POTS Replacement:
- Gadgets like Grandstream HT813 convert analog to digital. Perfect for alarms and elevators.
- Failover to Cellular
- Backup connectivity when things go haywire. Reliable and stress-free.
