All the communication tools your business needs to sound big and grow bigger.
Unlimited minutes with all plans
FreedomVoice comes with a limited number of minutes per plan. If you go over your plan’s limit, you will be charged a fee per each additional minute. All of Grasshopper pricing plans come with unlimited calling so you never have to worry about going over or paying for more than what you budgeted for.
Multiple numbers for your business
If your business requires multiple numbers or flexibility in call routing, Grasshopper gives you the ability to have more than one toll-free, local, or vanity number. You can even have one of each! FreedomVoice only allows for one business phone number in all of its plans and requires you to pay an extra monthly fee to add additional toll-free or local numbers. If you want a vanity number, FreedomVoice will charge you a one-time fee of $30.
Grasshopper offers live 24/7/365 sales and support options
If you have questions about features, billing, or set up, FreedomVoice has limited business hours and only emergency on-call customer support. Grasshopper has many channels, available 24/7, that you can go through such as phone, email, a dedicated support site, Twitter, Facebook and chat!
