4 out of 5#4 Pick: Voip.com

Bringing up the rear in our top four, Voip.com barely makes the cut. Voip.com is an "OK" choice, but will dissappoint when it comes to quality of sound as well as online experience. More details in our review. Learn More

#3 Pick
Phone Power VoIP

4 out of 5#3 Pick: Phone Power

At third place, for both features and a great introductory price, Phone Power offers standard voip features, but tech support could be better. Still a great pick. Learn more

#2 Pick

#2 Pick: 4 out of 5Lingo VoIP Service

An excellent value, Lingo comes in as runner up in our line up of reliable and inexpensive VoIP services. It lacks the service and cool internet features that Vonage has to offer. See our review for more information. Learn more

Choosing the Right VoIP Service

Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology is expanding exponentially, as are VoIP providers and the services and plans they offer.  More and more consumers are opting to choose VoIP over traditional land line phone service.  The expanding technical base and increasing software for VoIP makes it more and more cost-effective and marketable to the average consumer. But which service is right for you?

Here are some factors to consider when choosing a VoIP provider:

  • Reputation of the Provider
  • Quality of Service
  • Technical Support
  • Best bang for the buck
  • Easy Start-up with no or minimal costs

We took the time to review the top six services out there, and you are looking at the results, right now! In case you hadn't noticed, Vonage beat the competition, and we can show you why.

Our #1 Voip Pick is Vonage. Vonage has the best current promotion, with not only a free month and free equipment to get you started, but an easy $25 cash back, right in your pocket. View our Voip Comparison table below.
