The business phone system that cuts your phone bill in half.

With subscription pricing at $19.95 per user per month (which includes a phone extension), Ooma Office can help small businesses save between 40% to 60% compared to their current provider's monthly per line charge. With Ooma Office there are also no contracts or long-term commitments.

Note: Unlimited calling is included with the Ooma Office subscription fee but monthly taxes and fees still apply due to federal regulations.

Traditional business landlines will typically cost between $40 to $50 per line per month depending on features. We offer unlimited lines with our service, which means callers never get a busy signal no matter how busy you are. At only $19.95 per user per month, cost savings is a primary reason why so many people switch to Ooma Office.

Many small businesses make it a priority to set up a 1-800 number or toll-free number for their customers. Not only does this allow their customers to get more general information about their business and locations, but it also gives business owners a nationwide presence and helps them look more professional. 

Setting up a 1-800 number with Ooma Office is simple and straightforward. 

How to add a toll-free number with Ooma Office

Follow these instructions to add a toll-free number to your Ooma Office account. 

1. Log into office.ooma.com as an administrator and navigate to the Settings page. 
2. Click Phone Numbers. 
3. Click Add and choose Toll Free Number from the list. 
4. A toll-free phone number has been pre-selected, but you can choose a new one by clicking on the suggested number. 
5. Choose whether you will assign the phone number to an extension or if you will leave it unassigned.

How to add a toll-free calling plan

If you're planning on receiving a lot of toll-free calls, you can also add a toll-free calling plan to your Ooma Office account. 

Normally if you are receiving more than 500 minutes per month of incoming toll-free calls, you can subscribe to a calling plan to reduce the cost to your business. Ooma Office currently offers two toll-free calling plans: 

• $15 per month for 1,000 additional minutes of toll-free number calling (1,500 minutes total per month). Additional minutes are charged at 2.9¢ per minute. 
• $30 per month for 2,500 additional minutes of toll-free number calling (3,000 minutes total per month). Additional minutes are charged at 2.4¢ per minute. 

If you would like to subscribe to one of these plans, you can do so by logging into Ooma Office Manager as an administrator and visiting the Services section of the Store page. 

VoIP business phone systems use the internet to connect callers with one another. Using Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology, telecom providers like Ooma allow business callers to make phone calls from iOS and Android devices using their company’s phone number.

As a result, companies get greater flexibility and mobility with their business line that they simply can’t find with traditional business landline phones. Even better, you still get all of the features you enjoy from mobile phones - calls, voicemails, messages, and more - but at a fraction of the cost.

Features of Business Phone Systems

One of the biggest features of cloud-based phone systems is a virtual receptionist. You can generate automated voice messages that direct your customers to different departments and locations through one central business phone number. Because business VoIP systems operate in the cloud, it means that your employees can handle business communications from office desk phones as well as mobile phones with ease.

Business phone systems using VoIP offer many other important communication features including:

• Conference bridge

• Call transfers

• Modes for business hours and after hours

• Voicemail

• Caller-ID

• Music on hold

• Ring groups, and more.

Advantages of Cloud Phone Systems

Affordability

Compared to the setup costs of traditional landline phones, cloud-based office phone systems are much more cost-effective. There’s no need for a professional installation or IT personnel (many cloud systems are DIY), and often no contract or monthly line charge.

Mobile Phone Enabled

With the rise of remote workers, traveling workers, and widespread smartphone use in general, mobility features are a huge selling point for VoIP systems.

Scalable

Cloud-based technology also enables businesses to add extensions for new employees digitally as their company grows. For small and medium sized businesses, this is particularly beneficial because they don’t have to pay for an intrusive, expensive installation process.

Easy Setup

Cloud-based business phone systems often have a do-it-yourself setup. Usually all you need is a high-speed internet connection, access to your service’s user portal to manage settings and whatever hardware you are using, whether it’s a traditional business VoIP phone or smartphone.

Reliable Service

Having great call quality is a must for businesses. VoIP systems can intelligently prioritize voice traffic even during congested network conditions, ensuring that every call you make is crystal-clear despite bandwidth-intensive tasks.

Who Benefits Most from VoIP Office Systems?

Many small businesses have turned to VoIP due to their low cost, easy setup, and ability to scale quickly as their business grows. IT and infrastructure for traditional phone systems can be expensive and time-consuming. Cloud-based systems are also ideal for small businesses because managers can add new employees and use their main business phone number for multiple locations through their mobile devices seamlessly.
