Generally, yes. (VOIP is just a "cool" thing to be into these days.)

Can you define "call recognition" for me? Do you mean 
CallerID(determining the phone number that is calling you)?

You will need hardware that is compatible with your areas telephone 
network. (Stating that as it is likely different from the US network.)

If digital voice circuits(in any form) are available in your area, 
you'll likely be happier using them than POTS lines.
