Nashua launches VoIP in South Africa
South Africa's Nashua said it has introduced an internet protocol-based telephony service, called Nashua Voice. The VoIP service will be available from April at selected franchises. Nashua Voice lets subscribers make and receive calls via landline or mobile phone using a carrier-grade IP network, whether they are in South Africa or travelling abroad. It also offers the ability to record calls and host conference calls.
Nashua promised that the service will expand beyond voice in future to include the Virtual Boardroom free teleconferencing service, Virtual Fax, and Virtual Access. This promises additional cost savings for owners of 0860 Share Call numbers. Nashua Voice is able to route all call types, and uses per-second billing from the first second of the call, with no minimum call charges.
