7 OpenPhone (Quo) alternatives for sales teams

Quo (OpenPhone) is a genuinely good business phone for a small team, and if calling is the job it is hard to beat at the price. Teams look for an alternative the day they need to text a list: mass texting is not available, group texts stop at ten people and the fair-use policy sets the ceiling. Here are the realistic options for a sales team that texts at volume, with each platform's published entry price.

  1. 1. Signilio our product

    from $34.99/mo (Starter) for 1,000 texts

    Signilio is a compliant bulk SMS platform for high-volume sales teams: mass texting campaigns, a two-way team inbox, and 10DLC registration built in. Plans in dollars, not credits, from $34.99 a month — every feature on every plan, carrier fees included.

    • Pricing: monthly plans in dollars with texts included, $0.040 down to $0.030 per extra text, carrier fees included, every feature on every plan
    • Users: 2 seats on Starter, 5 seats on Growth, 15 seats on Pro
    • Numbers and 10DLC: 1/3/10 numbers included, extra $1/mo each; registration handled during onboarding
    • Inbox: two-way team inbox, replies assigned and worked together

    Best for: outbound sales teams that want a bill in dollars, every feature without a tier upgrade, and the compliance work done for them.

  2. 2. Google Voice

    $10.00/user/mo (Starter, minimum 1)

    Google Voice is a phone line, and a good one for a small team already on Google Workspace: $10 to $30 a user with unlimited US texting for real conversations. It is not a texting platform, and Google says so in plain words: messaging is for interactive conversations, it is not intended for bulk messaging, and sending the same text to many people can get you blocked. There is no campaign tool, no shared inbox and no 10DLC registration. Signilio's plans start at $34.99 a month for 1,000 texts on registered local numbers, built for campaigns and the replies they bring. If you have been blasting from Google Voice and getting restricted, that is the reason.

    • Pricing: A per-user Google Workspace add-on at $10, $20 or $30 a month with unlimited US texting for conversations; not for bulk messaging, by Google's own rules
    • Users: Per user: Starter $10 (up to 10 users), Standard $20, Premier $30; a Workspace subscription is required
    • 10DLC: No 10DLC or A2P registration is offered; Google Voice numbers are not business-registered senders
    • Inbox: no shared inbox

    Best for: A cheap business phone line for a small team already living in Google Workspace.

  3. 3. JustCall

    $39.00/user/mo (Team, minimum 2) plus credits from $0.019

    JustCall is a sales calling platform with texting attached: per-user plans with a two-user minimum, a few hundred segments per seat, and SMS bundles that get down to about a cent a segment at 47,500 a month. Add the seats, the $10 monthly campaign fee, an AT&T surcharge it does not quantify and registration you do yourself, and a texting bill is several lines. Signilio's plans put 2 to 15 seats, carrier fees and the texts in one dollar price, with registration handled. If your reps dial all day and text on the side, JustCall's dialer earns its seats; if texting is the outbound channel, the estimator shows the difference.

    • Pricing: Per-user plans with a two-user minimum and a few hundred SMS segments per user included, plus prepaid SMS bundles for volume and 10DLC fees passed through
    • Users: Per user with a two-user minimum: $39, $69 or $109 a month on monthly billing ($29, $49, $89 annual)
    • 10DLC: Self-registered in their compliance center: brand $46 one-time, campaign $15 one-time, then $10 a month for a standard campaign ($2 for low-volume mixed use)
    • Inbox: not published

    Best for: Outbound calling teams that want a dialer, call recording, AI coaching and texting in one seat.

  4. 4. RingCentral

    $30.00/user/mo (Core, minimum 1) plus credits from $0.012

    RingCentral is a phone system for the whole company, and texting comes with it in small doses: 25 or 100 texts a user a month on a $30 or $35 seat, a $25-a-user Booster for a shared inbox, and a separate High Volume SMS product at $0.0119 a message for anything that looks like a campaign, plus registry fees you handle yourself. Signilio is a monthly plan in dollars with the inbox, campaigns, 2 to 15 seats and registration included, carrier fees inside. If you are buying a phone system and want some texting in it, RingCentral is a sensible place to get both; if texting is the outbound channel, the estimator adds up the seats, the Booster and the per-message product.

    • Pricing: Per-user RingEX phone plans with a small SMS allowance (25 or 100 texts a user); campaign texting is the separate High Volume SMS product from $0.0119 a message sent or received; a $25-a-user Booster adds the shared inbox
    • Users: Per user: Core $30, Advanced $35 on monthly billing ($20 and $25 annual); bundles are quoted
    • 10DLC: You register through the registry in the admin portal; RingCentral charges no fee of its own, and the registry's fees are passed through: $19 brand application, $15 campaign vetting, then $1.50 or $10 a month per campaign with a three-month minimum
    • Inbox: shared inbox as a paid add-on

    Best for: Companies replacing a phone system across sites, with calling, meetings, chat and an AI receptionist in one seat.

  5. 5. Kixie

    Not published

    Kixie is a sales dialer first: unlimited calling, a power dialer across up to four lines, call coaching and CRM sync, with texting as a feature on the side. It publishes no prices, so there is no bill to estimate; its support center says texts are billed per message on top of the seat and numbers are $5 a month after the first. For a team whose day is calls, Kixie's dialer is the product. For a team whose outbound channel is texting, Signilio publishes its plans, from $34.99 a month for 1,000 texts, with seats included, campaigns to a list and registration handled.

    • Pricing: Quote-only per-user seat plans (Professional, Single-Line PowerDialer, Multi-Line PowerDialer) with unlimited US and Canada calling; texting is usage-billed on top
    • Users: Per-user seats; prices not published
    • 10DLC: 10DLC registration required; fees not published ("ask your provider")
    • Inbox: shared inbox included

    Best for: Outbound calling teams that want a multi-line power dialer, voicemail drop, live coaching and deep CRM integration.

  6. 6. SimpleTexting

    $29.00/mo (500 credits) for 500 messages

    SimpleTexting is a polished SMS marketing tool sold as a monthly credit plan with three seats included and carrier fees billed on top. Signilio is an outbound platform priced in dollars: monthly plans with texts included, 2 to 15 seats by plan and carrier fees included. At small marketing volumes SimpleTexting's bundle is simple and competitive. For a sales team sending tens of thousands of texts a month across several reps, the lower per-text price on the larger plans, the included seats and the included carrier fees usually make Signilio the lower bill, and the estimator below shows the exact gap at your volume.

    • Pricing: Monthly credit plans from 500 to 50,000 credits, $10 a month per local number, carrier fees billed separately
    • Users: 3 users included; $20 a month per additional user
    • 10DLC: $4 one-time carrier registration on a local number and "10DLC registration guidance"; no monthly campaign fee published
    • Inbox: shared inbox included

    Best for: Subscriber marketing to an opted-in list: keywords, autoresponders, drip campaigns and list-growth tools are the core of the product.

  7. 7. EZ Texting

    $25.00/mo (Launch) for 500 messages

    EZ Texting prices by the size of your contact list, and every plan below Enterprise includes the same 500 credits, so a sales team's real cost is the plan plus overage at 3 to 4 cents a message plus $10 for every extra seat. Signilio's plans are in dollars, from $34.99 a month for 1,000 texts to $189.99 for 12,000, with carrier fees included, every feature on every plan and no list-size tier to outgrow. EZ Texting's guided setup and included carrier registration are genuinely good for a first SMS program; at outbound volume the overage and seat charges are what decide the bill.

    • Pricing: Monthly plans priced by contact-list size, each with the same 500 credits, plus per-credit overage; an Enterprise short-code tier from $3,000 a month
    • Users: 1 user included; $10 a month per additional seat
    • 10DLC: Carrier registration included and handled for you; high-volume vetted registration $90 one-time, waived on Scale (their FAQ)
    • Inbox: shared inbox included

    Best for: A first SMS program with hand-holding: onboarding, templates and compliance guidance built for teams new to texting.

How to choose

Start from what you send. A marketing broadcast to a list that opted in on your website is what most texting platforms are built for: keyword opt-ins, subscriber growth tools, scheduled promotions. A monthly plan with a bundle of credits fits that well and is predictable at small volume.

Outbound sales texting is a different job. Volume is higher, every reply needs a person on it fast, and the team works the conversations together. There, the bill is decided by three things: the real cost per message once you are past the bundle, whether you pay for every rep who needs the inbox, and whether 10DLC registration is handled or handed to you.

Compare total cost per message with every fee included, at the volume you will actually send. The pricing guide explains segments and the fees that hide in a "cheap" rate, and the cost calculator tells you how many segments your message really is.

Common questions

What is the best OpenPhone (Quo) alternative for a sales team?
It depends on what you send. For a team running outbound campaigns at volume and working the replies together, a platform priced in dollars with a shared inbox, every feature on every plan and 10DLC handled for you — which is what Signilio is — usually fits the workflow better than a marketing-broadcast tool sold in credits; compare the bills at your own volume, because the cheaper one depends on it. For subscriber marketing to an opted-in list, a marketing-first platform may fit better; each option above says who it suits.
Why do teams move away from OpenPhone (Quo)?
The reasons we hear are the ones on this page: a monthly bundle that gets expensive as volume grows, charges for extra users or extra messages, and a product built around broadcasts rather than two-way sales conversations. OpenPhone (Quo) is a good product for what it is built for; the question is whether that is what your team does.
How hard is it to switch platforms?
Harder than it should be on most platforms because 10DLC registration has to be redone for the new provider. Onboarding is white-glove. We'll register your brand, configure your numbers, and get your first campaign out the door with you.

  • Quo publishes no message count for its unlimited texting, so the estimate prices seats and pass-through fees only and flags that campaigns are not available.
  • Automated texts via API or Zapier are $0.01 each; the estimate treats messages as human-sent.
