More and more people are finding that using video calling can help reduce overhead costs and benefit their business.

The benefits of video calling include:

• Reduced calling costs. Video conferencing allows your business to slash its calling costs, particularly when making international calls and calls to mobiles.
• Reduced travel costs. Communicating with customers and suppliers is key to the success of any business, video chat services enable you reduce your travel costs by removing the need to travel as regularly. 
• Increased flexibility. Video chat can be just as effective and personal as a face-to-face meeting, but you can schedule it into your normal workday at the office when it's convenient. It also enables team members from multiple locations to chat as a group face-to-face.
