OpenPhone, now called Quo, is a business phone app from $15 per user a month billed yearly, with phone menus, ring groups and CRM integrations on its $23 Business plan. Freesbe's phone system is an add-on to a workspace with chat, meetings and a customer inbox, with menus, voicemail you can read, texts as threads and click-to-call from four CRMs.
For Startups and small businesses that run on a couple of shared numbers and want chat and phone in one app.
Each person gets a number and a dialpad in the app they chat in. A call rings the computer and the phone, can be transferred to a colleague, an extension or a queue, merged into a three-way call, and recorded. Voicemail is written out in the app, and the call's transcript and notes are a click away.
Put a Freesbe number in the customer inbox and texts to it land in a channel, one thread per customer. Anyone on the team answers, hands the thread to a colleague or leaves an internal note the customer never sees. A customer who texts STOP is unsubscribed and the thread says so.

A phone number in HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive or Zoho CRM becomes a call in Freesbe with one click. A call-us link on your site or in a signature starts a call from the customer's browser. Emergency calling (E911) is included, with each person's address on file, and your existing numbers can be ported in.
Quo is a phone app first: a number, unlimited calling and messaging to the US and Canada on every plan, and a seven-day trial that starts in minutes, with automatic recording and AI tags on its bigger plans. A solo founder or a two-person team that only needs a business number and texts may find it the quicker buy.
