People bring Viber in for a business communicating with customers in eastern europe or the philippines where viber, not whatsapp, is the default app, an individual making cheap international calls to family in a viber-strong market before switching entirely to data calling, a brand running a community channel to reach an established viber audience in a specific country, someone wanting end to end encrypted chat on by default without configuring anything. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Viber are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Viber badges page.
Before you pay for Viber
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: a single tier at Free. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Viber runs on ios, android, windows, macos, web, and is published by Rakuten Group of Tokyo, Japan. The full record is on the Viber review, and the rest of the category is under best communication tools.
