Ooma basic service costs only > what the local phone taxes cost, in this area about US$4.20/month. I have Ooma and am also paying about $4 a month. The monthly cost of Ooma is about the same as Nettalk and MajicJack. The difference is that the Ooma hardware costs $120 or whatever one time, upfront. The other two, you can get the hardware bundled in with X months of service, meaning the net cost of the hardware is a fraction of the cost of Ooma. But I've used all three and there is no comparison. Ooma is a level of service and support way above MJ and NT. The call quality, call reliability is higher and Ooma has a real phone number with real tech support that you can call. Another factor, NT now has a limit of 1500 mins a month, though they continue to advertise it as unlimited. That might sound like a lot, but it's 50 mins a day average. In a multi-person household, not too hard to go over it. And in my case, when I did hit it one month, they just cut off my service, no warning, nothing. Phone just went dead and I didn't know what had happened. I'd say Ooma is way above MJ and NT and only slightly below what I could get from VOIP from my cable provider, Cablevision. The difference is that Ooma costs 90% less. Even if you amortize the $120 initial cost, Ooma is still a very low cost choice. And you can find used ones on Ebay for $50, which is how I got mine. |
