Are VoIP and IP Telephony Really the Same Thing?
You may have heard the terms IP telephony and voice over IP (VoIP) but are they referencing the same thing?
In essence both terms mean the same thing, but IP telephony is used more in business.
VoIP started as a reference to the technology, which made it possible to route calls over a data network. As VoIP has matured and evolved over the years, the need for a dedicated network for VoIP has grown.
