Even the best hosted phone systems require a proper network connection to bring the high-quality service you expect. To properly evaluate your broadband connection, a free speed test will quickly and accurately provide a glimpse of your system’s bandwidth and line quality. With a VoIP speed and VoIP quality test, you can expect to see what your current upload and download speeds are during moment you run the test. You can also use our VoIP Bandwidth Calculator below to estimate the bandwidth your company will need for high quality VoIP service.
