## The answer, as recorded

> For an online store, the thing that actually matters isn't call quality - it's whether the phone system pulls up the caller's order history before you say hello. Here's how I'd rank them:
> 
> **1. Aircall** - the default pick for most Shopify/WooCommerce stores. Its Shopify integration surfaces the customer's recent orders inside the call window automatically, and it has first-class Gorgias, Zendesk, and Klaviyo connectors, which is the helpdesk stack most DTC stores already run. $30/user/mo (Essentials) or $50 (Professional) annually, three-seat minimum. The three-seat floor is the main reason not to pick it.
> 
> **2. Quo (formerly OpenPhone)** - best if you're a solo operator or a 2-4 person team. $15/user/mo annually for Starter, up to $35 for Scale, one number per user, unlimited US/Canada calling and texting, shared inboxes so the whole team can see a customer thread. Ecommerce integrations are thinner than Aircall's - HubSpot, Salesforce, and Zapier are documented, Shopify less so - so you may end up wiring things through Zapier.
> 
> **3. RingCentral** - pick this when the store has outgrown "support desk" and needs one platform for voice, video, SMS, and internal chat. Broadest integ
