Whether you operate an established call center as a business or as a department of your main business, you are likely aware of the benefits of the virtual call center model. If you are planning to open a new call center or update your existing call center, today's virtual call center model with its cloud based call center software and voice over IP technology offers clear benefits. Let's take a closer look.

What is a virtual call center?

A virtual call center (VCC) is often described as a call center model wherein the call center operator pays a monthly or annual fee to a managed service provider that hosts the necessary call center software and equipment. Virtual call center agents at remote work locations connect to the call center platform from their workstations over the Internet.
