Best for a hosted phone system with a visual call flow

Who Anveo is for
- Fits if you need a small phone setup for 2 to 6 people and want a drawn call flow
- Works for people who want to pay for minutes as they use them
Who Anveo is not for
- Watch out: call minutes, numbers and SMS are billed by rate on top of the package
- Tight if you need transfers, as attended transfer and call parking are add-ons on every package
- Watch out: paging needs the Business plan at $40.55 a month
- Not for you if you want apps, as none are listed

Keep Anveo, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Anveo you would be making phone numbers and calls carried over the phone network. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.4 is higher than 55 of the 77 other business phone systems we grade. It costs $78.60 a year.
What you could not
- Phone numbers and calls carried over the phone network.
- Fax numbers connected to the phone network.
- Texts from a business number, registered with the carriers.
- An API that other software can build on.
What this rests on. Anveo’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
