According to Venturebeat.com, Yoomba has gone out of business, shut it’s doors and ran away. Just like Yoomba, there are lot’s of other VoIP companies currently on their way out of business, so if you’re interested in switching to VoIP from your land line system, or you are a Yoomba customer looking for a new way to make phone calls, make sure you do your reseach first.

Companies that have been around a long time, and have enough money and customers to stay afloat, are companies like Lingo, Packet8 and even Vonage; though they still make me nervous. Like I said, do your research, see who has enough operating capital for the next year, and only sign up for a month to month plan. (You don’t want to end up paying $199.00 for a year’s worth of service, only to have the company go bankrupt the next week)
