Viber PC latest version Download includes free calling and more [Emirates News Agency (WAM) (United Arab Emirates)]


(Emirates News Agency (WAM) (United Arab Emirates) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) We, the residents of planet – 3, are always looking for options which are cheaper than the conventional options, alternate ways are always in demand – from alternate fuel to an alternate way of making calls.



Viber has been one of the most successful application when it comes to VoIP services as it marketed itself in the name of "FREE calling" rather than calling itself a VoIP service provider.

Viber was, as a company, smart enough to realize that the people would rather be attracted by a service which offered them "free" stuff than a company which offers them "services".


Also viber's smart phone interface was very user friendly and people quickly started using Viber. Before Skype – the leading name in the VoIP services could know what was happening the Viber ambush had begun and they started eating away Skype's smartphone markets.

They were unchallenged in the 'free calling' domain as WhatsApp used the 'free IM', Snapchat used free transfer of photos while other IM clients banked on different services, Viber remained unchallenged by all but Skype.

They then looked into their expansion strategies – and let out an application for PC. Something which only a few applications had done in the past. It was mainly because of this reason that Viber got so popular.

Viber was now competing against Skype in smart phones as well as on computers – and eventually they both provided the very same services. Free calling, VoIP calling, later viber introduced viber out using which one could call from a PC to a landline/mobile phone as well, a service that even skype offers.

Using the Viber PC app would sync your mobile device with your PC and all your contact info and chat history would be synchronized across the devices. Hence viber today is such a big player in the global smartphone markets.
