Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) has revolutionized the way businesses and individuals communicate. Our industry delivers solutions aimed at two markets; large enterprises such as Call Centers, and small businesses and individuals. Within the VoIP market, there are two primary service models: wholesale and retail. Each caters to different needs and audiences, offering distinct features, pricing structures, and benefits. At CallnFax, we have mated these two models, unifying them to better serve each consumer.

In this article, we will explore and contrast the differences between wholesale and retail VoIP, using CallnFax as a case study for wholesale Voice services.
