The world’s top voice-over-IP (VoIP) provider Skype is now going to be dominated by the search engine giant, Google which is all set to launch its Google Voice globally. This service is like telephony gold. It is a superb app whose profound integration in Android makes GV one of the groundbreaking applications on the operating system.
Unluckily, as of now it can be used by the UK customers, but it appears that now it will roll-out in the telecom industry world-wide. Google’s European Director of Business Development, Jens Redmer told ‘The Next Web’ that the Google voice is going through internal testing in Europe.
It is an excellent service including free SMS, low-priced international calling, call forwarding, voicemail transcription, contact groups and so many joysticks for managing multiple gizmos and much more which will surely sweep you off your feet.
It seems that this move will give stiff competition to the Skype, which is dominating the market right now. For instance, calls made from Gmail to cell phones in the France, UK or Germany cost 8 euro cents (7p) per min whereas calls made from Skype to the phones cost around 15p per min.
One of the main differences which you can get in between Google voice and Skype is that the first one allows you to do group video-chat whereas this facility is not available on the Skype.
Well, it’s tough to say anything about its launch date but yeah, it is for sure that it will hit you very soon.
