Research notes

These notes summarize the vendor's own pricing pages, help docs and site, read on October 23–24, 2026. Prices and plans change, so check the source link before you buy.

Strengths

  • Starter is $24.95/month ($20 billed annually) for 30 calls, with $1.50 per extra call. (source)
  • A 14-day free trial with no credit card required. (source)
  • Spam blocking is included and the page says you don't pay for junk calls. It also lists 35+ languages, warm transfers and calendar booking. (source)

Limitations

  • Plans count calls, so a busy storm night on Starter adds $1.50 per call over 30. (source)
  • iPhone users have to turn off Live Voicemail, or forwarded calls may go to voicemail instead of Upfirst. (source)
  • The calendar integrations named on the pricing page are Google, Outlook, Clio, Acuity, Calendly and Square. No field service software is named. (source)
