CoIP: Defining the Standards of Transmission for VoIP
Communications over IP (CoIP) is a set of standards that defines how multimedia is transmitted over the Internet. CoIP is an extension of Voice over IP (VoIP). It includes texts, images, videos, and other digitized media as well as voice transmission.

African VoIP Carriers Value Speed and Loyalty for Increasing Growth over OTT Markets
The developing African telecommunications market is steadily growing, and is about to become a one billion person market worth nearly $20 billion. As such, there are several teleco operators that are fighting a turf war over who will provide service to these customers, with mobile carriers squaring off against Over the Top (OTT) providers of similar services. It appears however that the existing service providers still have an edge over OTT providers in both speed of service and customer loyalty, but the carriers will have to act quickly to provide the same benefits OTT providers offer before they become carriers themselves.
