Aircall** - This is what I'd name first for a store of any real size. It's the one with a proper native Shopify integration plus a deep Gorgias integration (Insight Cards put the customer's order history in the dialer before the agent picks up, and every call auto-creates a ticket with recording). That \"see the order before you say hello\" behavior is the whole game in ecommerce support. Downside: it's the expensive option - roughly $30/license/month with a 3-user minimum, and some things (AI transcripts, AI voice agent) are add-ons. ([TechRadar review](https://www.techradar.com/reviews/aircall-voip-review), [Aircall + Gorgias setup](https://www.ringly.io/blog/aircall-gorgias-integration-shopify-support))\n\n**2. Gorgias Voice** - If you're already running Gorgias as your helpdesk, just turn on the voice add-on before you buy a separate phone system. Calls land in the same inbox as email/chat/DMs, with IVR and queues. Pricing is per voice ticket (~$1.20 down to ~$0.40 as volume rises) on top of your helpdesk plan, which is genuinely cheaper than per-seat licensing if call volume is low. It's thinner than Aircall - no AI handling the call, no automate", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
