Voip providers compared

Not all VoIP providers are created equally, and it IS possible for a former monopolist to create the best offering in the industry. That's what PC World's comparison of VoIP providers proves.

VoipCheck out the full report here.

The top 7:
1. AT&T Callvantage
2. Packet 8
3. Comcast
4. Vonage
5. Verizon
6. AOL
7. Lingo

Must say that I have no complaints about Vonage, even if it came in only fourth, but at least I didn't fall for Lingo which is the only US based provider to include unlimited calls to Europe.

From what I understand btw, Vonage is by far the market share leader.

Comments

I have been using tringotel business line for the past few months. No major complaints about call quality.

Lots of great features and very easy to customize. But, there is no way to set up multiple voicemail boxes. This is unfortunate because I have a partner. You can use an answering machine with multiple boxes instead, but all of the great Voip voicemail features (including. .wav messages to email) are lost. Lingo and vonage might have the same weakness.
