013 | Launching Telephony: Direct SIP Telephony or Your Own PBX – Maximum Savings and Control
03.06.2025
We’ve already discussed the basics of IP telephony and the convenience of virtual PBXs. But what if you want maximum savings or complete control over your phone system? In that case, you should consider two more advanced options: direct use of SIP accounts or deploying your own IP PBX.
- Direct SIP Telephony: Cheap and Cheerful This option assumes you obtain a SIP account (or several) directly from a communications operator (SIP provider) and independently configure the equipment or software for calls.
How it Works Registration with a SIP provider: You choose an operator that provides SIP telephony services (these can be the same companies that offer virtual PBXs, or specialized SIP operators). You register and receive connection details: SIP login, password, server address.
