Issues to Consider When Choosing a VoIP Managed Services Provider 1. Can the Managed-Services provider help me evaluate all of my options, or are they biased? 2. Does the Managed-Services provider have the skills to design, deliver and maintain a complex IP network? 3. Can the Managed-Services provider assist me in developing a migration plan from my current platform? 4. Does the Managed-Services provider have a product evolution plan? 5. Will the Managed-Services provider be able to deliver the true potential of VoIP? 12
