Remember, a telephone number that is dependent on being on the internet (or not) will impact how it works in the world, and therefore, which features it can have (or not)!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWired\u201d numbers (like from NumberBarn) are able to be (or generally better at) things like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list bloglist-style\">\n<li>Not reliant on an internet connection<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More easily transferable (porting) to another carrier<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Personalizable or customizable (i.e., \u201cvanity numbers\u201d)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1-800 numbers or toll-free numbers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>But there are advantages to completely digital VoIP phone numbers too!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since Google Voice is part of Google\u2019s larger suite of programs, a lot of digital features like call recording and voicemail transcriptions come naturally to its ecosystem, especially if you already use it a lot.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just remember that other stuff, like transferring your number (\u201cporting\u201d) or personalizing your digits are mostly only possible (or a lot easier) with wireline numbers. (<strong>Note: <\/strong>You <em>can <\/em>port over your Google Voice phone number to a traditional phone carrier, but doing that more or less discontinues its online usage.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Pricing\"><strong>Pricing: How much does NumberBarn and Google Voice cost?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Both have their benefits and challenges but the good news is that both NumberBarn and Google Voice have budget-friendly options and a mix of features (Google Voice is free for personal use actually.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>NumberBarn Pricing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list bloglist-style\">\n<li><strong>Call Forwarding Plans:<\/strong> From $6\/month<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Number Parking:<\/strong> From $2\/month<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Porting: <\/strong>$5 one-time fee<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Text &amp; Call Plans:<\/strong> $6\u2013$19\/month (non-contract)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> Toll-Free &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.numberbarn.com\/vanity-phone-numbers\">Vanity <\/a>numbers (where you choose from available digits) are also available, though prices will vary depending on the popularity of the numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Google-Voice-Pricing\"><strong>Google Voice Pricing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Personal Plan:<\/strong> Free&nbsp;<br>Google Voice is literally <em>free<\/em> for the most basic of functions (e.g., online calling, no texting, few features, limited international calling, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Business Plans (Google Workspace)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Starter: <\/strong>$10 per user\/month<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Standard:<\/strong> $20 per user\/month<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Premier:<\/strong> $30 per user\/month<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Most people assume Google Voice is entirely free, but it\u2019s only free up to a point.
