What is the difference between Solo and Professional?

As our most basic plan, Solo includes 1 user and 200 outbound texts per month. In the event you exceed your monthly limit, you will be charged an overage fee of $0.04 per outbound text. Incoming texts are free and do not count towards your limit.

Our Professional Plan includes 5 users and built-in features like a company-wide phonebook, reporting, automatic & scheduled replies, opt-out list management and more. In addition, Professional Plan users have access to mass text & marketing tools like distribution lists and our SMS Marketing Wizard.

Professional Plan users also enjoy 500 outbound texts per month pooled across your organization. For example, 2 users = 1,000 outbound texts per month (2×500 = 1,000) | 3 users = 1,500 outbound texts per month (3×500 = 1,500), etc. As always, Incoming texts are free and do not count towards your limit.
