  • Bulk texting is metered by tier, at 1,500 messages on Pro, 3,000 on Elite and 15,000 on Ultimate
  • Premium analytics, call intelligence and one-to-one training are Ultimate only
  • VOIP handsets are bundled by tier, with up to 15 on Ultimate, so the phone system is part of the plan rather than bring-your-own
  • Several features are specific to healthcare verticals, including insurance verification and eyewear notifications
