What a phone system costs a brewery in Utah

Breweries in Utah average 19.5 employees, so the comparison uses a 20-person team. Per-seat business phone plans bill every one of those people. At month-to-month list prices checked September 28, 2026, 20 users on RingCentral RingEX Core cost $600.00 a month and 20 on Ooma Office Pro cost $499.00. Callata comes to $399.00 a month for 20 users ($99 a month with 5 users included, then $20 per additional user), below both.

Over a year, that is $2,412 less than RingCentral for a brewery in Utah of that size. Annual contracts lower some competitors' prices, so compare the plan you would actually sign.
