Business phone software for service businesses

Client-facing teams need one business number that rings on their own phones, with shared texting so nobody misses a lead. Quo does that with shared numbers and inboxes, from $15 per person. It mainly offers US and Canada numbers and has no desk-phone support; Unitel Voice charges a flat $9.99/mo instead of per user.
