    Best VoIP Setup for a 5-Employee Business (Step-by-Step, 2026)

    Quick Answer

    For a 5-person business, expect ~$110-$180/month all-in for hosted VoIP including taxes. Pair 5 mobile/desktop apps with 1-2 IP desk phones (receptionist, owner). Use a simple 3-option auto-attendant. Port your existing number — it takes about 10 business days.

    What to buy

    • 5 user seats with mobile + desktop apps
    • 1 Yealink T31P at the front desk (~$70)
    • Optional: 1 wireless DECT handset (Yealink W73P) for shared spaces

    Auto-attendant script (copy/paste)

    'Thanks for calling [Company]. For sales, press 1. For support, press 2. For all other inquiries, press 0 to reach the front desk.'
