VoIP services offered by Nextiva
When it comes to voice-over-the-internet-protocol services, Nextiva is among the most popular providers in the country. The company offers VoIP solutions for smaller businesses and for corporations alike. The service is subscription-based and the price depends on the number of users need to use the service and on the type of billing you opt for (monthly or on a 36-months agreement). The more users you have, the lower the price.

Office Pro - the most affordable plan if you have more than 100 users and you choose the 36-months agreement: $19.95 per month
For just 1-4 users and monthly billing, your price is $34.95 per month.
