## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace NFON 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. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 50 of the 77 other business phone systems grade higher. It costs $91.16 a year.

- You could not: Phone numbers and calls carried over the phone network.
- You could not: Video calls.
- You could not: It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
