Overall Packet8 Review:
Packet8 is more expensive than comparable Voip plans with not much added benefits. The Packet8 annual plans costs $239 compared to $199/yr. The Packet8 monthly plan costs $24.99/month compared to $14.95/ month for thr PhonePower monthly plan and $23.95/month for the Lingo monthly World Max plan which offers free unlimited calls to 100 countries. Having said that if you're switching to VoIP from a regular phone company you save money. Plus 8x8 is a great way to add video to your calls. Packet8's support for E911 calling sets it apart from the rest of the VoIP crowd. Its backed by a stable company. Its pricing is attarctive for new users making the switch from traditional phones. 30 days money back guarantee is also a safety net for consumers.Packet8 International Plan:

Packet8(8x8) Final Review:
8x8 Packet8 VoIP service is the first VoIP service to offer 911 that's close to what you get with a traditional landline phone (it's the same 911 service that cell phone callers receive). Dubbed Enhanced 911, the service provides that an emergency operator will receive caller information on his or her screen when you call. (With other VoIP services, calls to 911 aren't always treated as emergencies, and they rely on callers to provide their name and location.) In addition to its residential plans, Packet8 offers plans tailored to businesses, videophone service plans, and flat-rate plans for callers to Europe and Asia. You can transfer your current number to Packet8 service (area codes are available in all but four states in the United States), and you can also purchase a second virtual number in another area code. Under light network traffic conditions, Packet8's voice quality is comparable to that of landline phones, but like many VoIP services, conversations proved difficult when we were uploading files to the Web during calls. Still, with its low rates, excellent geographical coverage, and E911 support, Packet8 has plenty to offer as a replacement for your current phone service.
