Since I am also involved in a church there is also an involvement in politics and a group of people trying to control everything to their benefits.
I simply refuse to participate in that type of politics -- especially in religious organizations.

I love it. Almost half way through the month and our VoIP cost (already including the monthly rate for DIDs, Vultr, voip.ms fax) is about $96. Methinks we won't be hitting $755 by the end of the month.
cant remember, what did you project it would be?
Projection (high side) was about $350 / month.
You should run a query every once in a while on your termination to see how many times you are charged outside of tier 1 pricing.
Twilio is .007 but sometimes you will see .014 or higher. Not sure what area you are in. This is when it makes sense to compare Telnyx for outgoing.
Never port in to Telnyx, they charge you $7 or more per number to port out.

Can't believe no one has recommended Ulingo, SMH. Or what about NTG?
With all the vendors shit posting their wares I can easily see my $1000+ a month going anywhere but SW and actually yielding some sales.

Yeah. As I said a day or so ago, the vultures have landed.

Yes, it's a shit post fest all the time, and I know that at least I am conditioned to leave any thread that has a GG posting on it, it's instant thread death. I don't even read what is there. I see the email notification that a GG has responded and I just delete the email and move on. The whole system is useless to me. I'm only interested in threads where they remain technical.

GG, or Green Guy, means a poster that is assigned to spam threads with marketing crap. Anything from a GG is useless. If you mute them all, the site gets way better. They are so called as their accounts are market in green to distinguish them from valuable posters.

GreenGuy or GreenGal. Basically a companies pays Spiceworks to have their company reps names appear green. When you see one of those show up, you know it's now all marketing and any technical discussion gets purposely sidetracked (at best) immediately. Even better (being sarcastic), are the Spiceworks employees vendors pay to post of their behalf. Lenovo is notorious for this.

Crazy that I was even thinking of doing this. I only get on SW once in a blue moon. Maybe I should open a tab and watch more.
And that is specifically the privilege they are paying for? To be blocked and hidden, and to spam a post with all the other big telecom vendors (in this case)
Maybe I'll start a re:scam account and just bait vendors...

Blanket statements are asinine of you.
There are more quite cool GG on there just doing what they do because it is their assigned job duty.
Chris from Microsoft
Nic when he was at Webroot
Phil from CommQuotesI can name a few more. but you get the idea.

Nothing wrong with whores, as long as they don't work for some tech vendor.

My complaint that thread (haven't checked it in a day or so) was all of these "here's the perfect solution for you" responses before the OP gave any usable requirements.

He doesn't even KNOW his requirements yet. He's speaking to the business tomorrow to get his first bit of requirements!

@scottalanmiller Should've written "before OP gives. . ." rather than gave.

The guy kind of asked for it.
"What is the best Cloud PBX"
And then "I gotta talk to my IT guy"

Just a bit, prompting something like this...
