I'm helping a friend move their telco landline business (2 phone lines) over to an OBI. I know there is the OBI for business and seems like they could just use two GV accounts - not sure what the OBI for business will do better than configuring an Obi202 on my own with you guys great support?
Then there is the drama of porting their telco landlines to GV - I've seen on rare occasions, after porting to a pre-paid cell, that even then Google won't allow it to port across - meaning you then had dropped your other business service provider and now this pre-paid cell has your phone number hostage. I suppose then you could port it to 1 of the many voip providers like localphone - but a deep analysis of how many minutes will need to be done.
I'm guessing if they use crazy amount of minutes - it might not be cheaper using a voip company - if they have to pay for 4,000 outbound minutes at 1/2 cent a minute - is that $200 a month (is my math right)?
Definately would save huge sums of money if GV would work, and only if GV continues their free service, but have any you other good folks seen a decent savings over telco if you had to pay a voip company for USA minutes for some sort of business plan?
