What a phone system costs a winery in Oregon

Wineries in Oregon average 10.2 employees, so the comparison uses a 10-person team. Per-seat business phone plans bill every one of those people. At month-to-month list prices checked September 28, 2026, 10 users on RingCentral RingEX Core cost $300.00 a month and 10 on Ooma Office Pro cost $249.50. Callata comes to $199.00 a month for 10 users ($99 a month with 5 users included, then $20 per additional user), below both.

Over a year, that is $1,212 less than RingCentral for a winery in Oregon of that size. Annual contracts lower some competitors' prices, so compare the plan you would actually sign.
