What the heck is Ooma?

Ooma is a telecommunications company based in the U.S. that allows its users to make phone calls anywhere in the United States with no monthly service fees.

After purchasing the equipment, customers only pay applicable government taxes and access fees, which vary by state, but are usually $3-4 per month.
The company released its first unit in 2007, and after some design changes, allowed users to completely eliminate their current landline telephone service. Consumers simply purchase a small device similar to a wireless router.

The service is different from other VoIP services (such as Vonage) in that after the initial purchase, there are no monthly fees besides government taxes. Fortunately, Ooma has thoughtfully provided a tax calculator.
