VoIP, Inc. has gotten out of the independent VoIP business as a provider of services that replace standard phone line service. It has decided instead to recast itself as a provider of "click-to-call" applications. The Company therefore has suspended all of its telecommunications network operations including all current revenue generating operations.
The company also reduced its workforce by 25 persons, eliminating most of its network operations and software engineering staff.
Some participants in the U.S. VoIP marketplace think the next two years will see the demise of most of the independent U.S. providers who do not own their own access networks. The average revenue per user is simply too low, the profit margin too thin and the volumes too low.
Hoping is not a business plan.
