Affordable pricing

iTeleCenter provides plans that are perfect for anyone running a small to medium-sized business. iTeleCenter Basic, which is the base-level plan, costs $19.95 per month. The Pro and Grow plans are also very inexpensive — costing $39.95 and $99.95/month respectively.

3CX, on the other hand, offers three options as well. They offer their standard plan for free and their Pro and Enterprise plans at $20.83/month/user and $25.25/month/user. If you’re buying their service for multiple users, the pricing can be quite heavy on your pocket. They charge based on the number of SC (Simultaneous Calls)

Designed specifically for entrepreneurs and small businesses

iTeleCenter is literally built only for entrepreneurs, small-midsized businesses. 3CX is built more for medium-sized businesses and large enterprises.

Right from pricing, key features such as business texting, phone extensions, VOIP calling, call forwarding, voicemail transcription, etc., iTeleCenter has built everything keeping small businesses in mind.

Customer support

iTeleCenter's customer service is the most powerful competitive differentiator. Our support chats and phone lines are staffed by knowledgeable human professionals who will understand your specific questions and needs and provide a solution to your specific request.

3CX, on the other hand, has good customer support, but they don’t offer training.

👌 A couple of other things …

Free professional studio recording

Want to answer incoming calls professionally? Custom phone greeting can give your business a professional appearance. iTeleCenter will have your custom greeting recorded by the voice studio at no charge. 3CX charges extra $ if you want a professionally recorded greeting.

Online faxing

With iTeleCenter, you can send and receive faxes from any computer. Incoming faxes are converted into PDF and delivered to your inbox. By receiving virtual copies of faxes, you can easily view, share, and print faxes at your convenience. 3CX only allows you to receive faxes, you can’t send faxes.

Free trial

Both providers offer free trials. The only difference is that 3CX free trial is 30 days, while iTeleCenter offers a 14-day free trial.

SMS keywords

iTeleCenter is the first virtual phone system provider to introduce this feature. No one else offers this feature in the market.

An SMS keyword is a word or phrase that your customers can text to a 10-digit number. Create a list of codes for your number that will auto-text back a message to the person who texts the code to your number.

You can leverage SMS keyword in a number of ways. For instance, you can invite your customers and prospects to text a keyword to:

Receive a coupon code for your product or service
Get notifications of upcoming events
Enter into a giveaway or contest, etc.

Portability

Have an existing business phone number and want to port? iTeleCenter gets it done with 3-5 days whereas, with 3CX, it can take 4-5 weeks to get your old number connected to your 3CX account. Too long a wait? Yes, we know.

People are talking

Vern Pelzer

co-owner of Jakel Media

"I frequently recommend iTeleCenter and tout the system’s portability and its ability to make outbound sales calls. It’s a great service, and I don’t have to be stuck in the office to receive business calls. iTeleCenter has a lot of options you don’t need at first but you grow into them. Other places make you pay to add features and it gets costly. With iTeleCenter you get everything you will need at a lower overall price."

Cliff Lunsford

CEO of Green Life Outfitters

"Implementing iTeleCenter in our business model enabled us to advertise one Toll Free number and forward incoming calls directly to our local business line in Tennessee. This means any U.S. or Canadian customer can contact us without incurring long distance charges. iTeleCenter also allows us to seamlessly transfer calls between departments without having to implement an expensive PBX system or install any equipment in our offices."

Vicky Horstman

Votech Rehab, LLC

"iTeleCenter put all of my communication needs into one place, at one low price. This has helped me stay organized through the years and I rarely have to update my contact information, as I have kept the same number for so long. My clients only need to know one number, my iTeleCenter number. With the multiple extensions, follow-me's, fax-on-demand, etc."

Laura Betterly

Yada Yada Marketing, Inc.

"We are a Google certified company and we drive traffic to web sites for our clients. All of these sites have forms for prospects to fill out. We added the 800 numbers from iTeleCenter and the results have been amazing. With iTeleCenter we are able to see exactly how many calls came in, the time of day, and the number they called from, and even track the ROI on our PPC campaigns! The iTeleCenter number is one of the most important things we have added to our business."

Dr. Joseph Rubino

VIP, OxyFresh

"iTeleCenter is the most advanced voicemail and communications tool available on the market today. It has increased our advertising conversions and helped us more effectively manage our leads from advertising. iTeleCenter has enabled us to increase the number of leads gathered five-fold by capturing every caller's information. iTeleCenter is a great bargain when you consider that it is a fraction of the cost of a successful ad campaign. It increases conversion rates and makes us money because we can get a far greater return on our ad dollar."
