> **1. CallRail - the default pick for most small businesses.** It's the easiest to set up, has the best Google Ads / GA4 integrations, and dynamic number insertion works out of the box. Plans run $50-$195/mo, each including 5 local numbers and 250 tracking minutes. Watch the overages: $3 per extra number, $0.05/local minute, and **calls round up to the whole minute** - a 1:10 call bills as 2. Real bills often land 1.5-2× the advertised base.

> **2. WhatConverts - if you care about lead *quality*, not just call volume.** It captures calls, forms, and chats in one place and lets you mark leads as qualified/unqualified, so you can report actual revenue per campaign instead of raw call counts. Roughly $30-$160/mo, and the entry Plus tier (~$60) is cheaper than CallRail's comparable plan for low volume. Best if you're running PPC or working with an agency.
