About Google Voice+

Google Voice gives staff a business phone number that works on mobile, laptop and some desk phones, with voicemail transcription, call forwarding, auto attendants and ring groups. For organisations it is sold as an add-on for Google Workspace, with Starter, Standard and Premier plans. Personal Google Voice accounts are free in the US but are for individuals, not teams.

Pricing: Google lists Starter at US$10, Standard at US$20 and Premier at US$30 per user a month. Starter for teams is available in 14 countries; Premier supports international locations. I found no separate nonprofit price for Voice. A personal Google Voice account is free in the US but is not designed for team use.
