In theory, businesses should give their customers the facts and tell them the truth, so that they can make informed and successful decisions. But as we all know, in reality, this doesn’t always happen. Some businesses spin, bend, or outright “invent” the truth in a desperate, unethical attempt to acquire and keep customers. Unfortunately, we have received numerous reports over the years of landline phone companies engaging in this type of behavior, when they feel threatened by reputable companies that offer cloud-based telephone service.  The bad news is that we cannot demand that these landline phone companies change their behavior.

A Digital Phone System for Your Business Dramatically Lowers Remote Worker Telecommunication Costs  Installing a business-grade landline in a home office can cost around $600.

When you ask Google to find “business phone providers near me,” then you will get plenty of options (possibly including one that brought you to this article!). Obviously, Google is helpful here — but there is MUCH more to the story that you need to know. Why? Because while Google (which is by far the most popular search engine on the planet) can list some “business providers near me,” it cannot go deeper and tell you which specific providers are trustworthy and credible — and which are not.
