Google Voice has no toll-free numbers and no one to call when something breaks. eTollFree gives you a real 800 number, a full business phone system, an AI receptionist, and one-on-one support — from $6.95/month. Bring your number with you.
These are the walls business owners actually hit with Google Voice. Here is what changes the day you move over.
Google Voice only issues local numbers. There is no 800, 833, 844, 855, 866, 877 or 888 option on any plan.
Every prefix, including vanity numbers that spell your business. Free for your customers to call, and it tells them you are a real company.
Support is a web form and a community forum. There is no number to call, and replies can take days while your line sits dead.
A real person who can see your account and fix it while you are still on the call. Request a callback and we ring you back.
A Google Voice number belongs to one user. No shared line, no ring groups, no routing calls to whoever is free.
Add users, ring a whole department at once, roll to the next person if nobody picks up. Sales here, support there.
You cannot tell it when you are open. Calls at 2am ring exactly the same as calls at 2pm.
"Press 1 for sales, 2 for support." Different greetings and routing for open hours, after hours, weekends and holidays.
Automatic call recording is locked to the most expensive Premier tier — more per user than our entire top plan.
Recording, voicemail-to-email with transcripts, and searchable history are in every plan, not held back as an upsell.
There is nothing that answers, qualifies and routes a caller for you when you cannot get to the phone.
No monthly fee — you only pay for the minutes it actually talks. It answers, books and routes around the clock.
The honest comparison — what you get today, and what you get when you move up.

You cannot always get to the phone — you are on a job, with a customer, or asleep. Instead of sending that caller to voicemail, our AI receptionist picks up and handles it like a trained front desk.
Billed by the minute of actual conversation. If it never answers a call, it never costs you anything — there is no subscription to carry.
Enterprise-grade features without the corporate headaches — and without an enterprise price tag.
Pick from 800, 833, 844, 855, 866, 877 and 888 prefixes — including vanity numbers that spell your business.
"Press 1 for sales, 2 for support." Route every caller to the right place automatically, day or night.
Missed calls arrive in your inbox as an audio file and a written transcript, so nothing gets lost.
Record calls for training, quality or your own records. Stored and searchable in your account.
Send and receive text messages from your business number — customers increasingly prefer it.
Still need a fax for insurance, legal or medical paperwork? Send and receive it without a machine.
Take business calls on your cell without handing out your personal number.
Ring your office, then your cell, then voicemail. Or all at once. Your rules.
A real person who knows your account, reachable on the phone. Not a ticket queue.
Most owners are live in minutes. If you are bringing a number with you, we do the paperwork.
Search available 800, 833, 844, 855, 866, 877 and 888 numbers — or tell us the number you already have and we will port it over.
Start at $6.95/month. No setup fee, no contract, and you can move up or down whenever your business changes.
On the phone, with a real person, for as long as it takes. Call routing, voicemail, your auto attendant greeting — all of it.
Every plan includes 100+ standard phone system features. Month to month, cancel any time.
Real reviews from business owners who made the switch.
Yes. Number portability is a federal right — if your number can be ported, we will port it. Tell us the number when you sign up and we will handle the paperwork with your current provider and keep you posted until it lands. Your old service keeps working the whole time, so there is no gap.
Usually, yes. Google allows you to unlock and port a Google Voice number out to another carrier for a small one-time fee paid to Google. Once it is unlocked, we take it from there. Call us before you start and we will walk you through the order of operations so nothing breaks mid-move.
A local number is tied to an area code. A toll-free number (800, 833, 844, 855, 866, 877 or 888) can be dialed free of charge from anywhere in the country, and it signals that you are an established business rather than a personal line. Many owners run both — a toll-free number for customers and a local number for their area.
It means a real person who can see your account and fix your problem — not a ticket queue, a bot, or a community forum. Request a callback and we will ring you back, or call 1 (800) 232-9076 during business hours and you will get a human being.
It is an AI that answers your phone when you cannot — greets the caller, answers common questions, takes a message, books an appointment and routes the call to the right person. There is no monthly fee. You pay only for the minutes it actually spends on the phone: 15¢/min on Call Forwarding, 13¢/min on eBizLine Lite and 10¢/min on Business Phone Basic. If it never answers a call, it never costs you anything.
No. Service is month to month. Scale up, scale down, or cancel whenever you need to — we would rather earn the next month than trap you in a term.
If you pick a new number, minutes. Search for one, choose a plan, and it is live. If you are porting an existing number, the port itself typically takes a few business days, and we give you a temporary number to use in the meantime so you never miss a call.
Plans start at $6.95/month for a toll-free number with 100 included minutes, auto attendant, voicemail, call recording, IVR and virtual faxing. eBizLine Lite is $14/user/month with unlimited calling and the mobile and desktop apps. There is no setup fee.
No — that is rather the point. Calls to your business number ring wherever you tell them to, including your cell, and our apps let you place outbound calls that show your business number instead of your personal one.
Find your toll-free number in under a minute, or ask us to call you and a real person will walk you through it. From $6.95/month, no contract.
