🚀 Fall launch 24: Our biggest release ever!
Explore what’s new →
RingCentral is a legacy business phone system from the 90s. OpenPhone offers a platform that can sustainably grow with your business.
We reached out to customers who switched from RingCentral to OpenPhone to find out why. Here's what they had to say:
"We switched to OpenPhone from RingCentral during the COVID-19 pandemic since it allowed us to work remotely without missing any calls. It allows us to have better customer service levels, quicker responses as anyone can respond to customers in real-time while traveling."
Amira Harris
President and Owner @ Aisle Travel
"I suffered all sorts of headaches for over 15 years using RingCentral, Grasshopper, and other VOIP providers. I am beyond amazed at the quality and service provided by OpenPhone. I couldn't recommend OpenPhone more — which is why my clients are also switching over to OpenPhone."
Brent Hohlweg
Founder @ Supersonic Sites
"I switched from RingCentral to OpenPhone for way better pricing, way better customer service, and a phone system that is always improving its functionality to better serve its customers."
Bob Richey
Owner @ Party Magic Entertainment

Send as many texts as you need
RingCentral's base plan only offers 25 texts/user/month. OpenPhone provides free SMS and MMS to the US and Canada.
Call worry-free with OpenPhone
RingCentral caps toll-free calls at 100 minutes.
With OpenPhone, you don't have limits on toll-free calls.
No file storage limits
Call recordings and other files expire after 90 days unless you upgrade with RingCentral. Unlimited file storage comes standard on every OpenPhone plan.
Get a unified view of all your communications
OpenPhone lets you view your customer calls, texts, recordings, and more, in one place.
RingCentral siloes all these interactions, making it harder for your team to get essential context.
