Smartphones have made connectivity easier than ever. That said, many households continue to work with local communications providers for home phone service. If you're wondering whether to embrace the home phone, here are a few benefits you'll instantly enjoy. 

The Top 4 Reasons to Get Home Phone Service

1. Covered in Emergencies

During a power outage or an emergency situation, you may not have access to cellular data, high-speed internet, or electrical power to charge your cell phone. A landline may still be operational; however, during these conditions. As such, you'll be able to call emergency services, connect with loved ones to provide an update or continue an important work call without access to wi-fi. 

2. Connection Quality

Depending on the geographic location of your property and where you're sitting in your house, you may have spotty cell service and poor Internet connectivity. A home phone can provide reliable, quality connections. You'll be able to hear the other end clearly and you won't have to worry about the call dropping. This can be particularly convenient when you're on a long customer service call. 

3. Access for Children

When raising children, deciding when to give them a cell phone is an important and personal decision. While you may give your children a cell phone at a younger age when they're at school or out with friends, so they can easily get ahold of you, a home phone is a convenient and handy tool to start with. You can teach your child phone etiquette and you can give them the ability to call friends with more supervision before they're ready for the responsibility of a smartphone.  

4. Dedicated Work Line

Working from home is incredibly common these days. That said, with a home office it can be difficult to separate work from family life. A dedicated line at home that is for work calls can provide balance, separation, and reliability.
