BEST Overall Small Business Phone Systems

Telzio makes it easy – they offer one plan that you can customize based on the number of minutes you need each month, and the number of SMS  you need to send each month.  All minutes are shared amongst all users on the plan.  This way you pay only for minutes used, rather than paying for each and every user on the plan.

Telzio offers most of the features that you will find with the leading Cloud Phone System providers such as RingCentral, VirtualPBX and Phone.com.  They even offer call recording and voicemail to text transcription as standard features where the others don't.

Telzio's key differentiator is its fast setup and configuration, and ease of use.  Call flows and Call Management are all configured using drag and drop technology.  You can have even the most complex call flow setup and running in minutes rather than hours.  We found this feature alone to set it light years ahead of the competition.  Being able to quickly and easily setup a small business phone system and then easily modify it as changes occur should be a key factor in deciding on a system.

A Few Details about this Plan:

They have one plan that starts at 1,000 minutes and zero SMS for $50/month.  You can add 250 SMS per month for $13/month.  You can also easily add minutes in increments of 1,000 for $39/month.  With Telzio you are never locked into a plan – you can add minutes or SMS at any time, or cancel at any time.  The best part is that you can try Telzio out for 30 days absolutely free and verify for yourself that it truly is the easiest, quickest and best small business phone system.
