This is compared to Skype, whose video conferencing facility is free-of-charge, but the ooVoo plan does include pay-per-use billing as well as free calls to the United States, Canada, Germany, Italy, UK and Israel. OoVoo's business plan costs $39.95 (£24.16) a month. 'With our new business plan we've made our services even more appealing to those looking for an alternative to expensive, high-tech video conferencing services.'Īnother feature is that the business plan removes banner advertisements from all video conversations for plan purchasers and anyone they invite to join a call.

This is a sector where Skype plays, namely smaller businesses with simple broadband connections and webcams, but who are looking for a cost effective way to deal with their remote workforces and limit their travel expenses.

Other great apps like ooVoo are Jitsi Desktop, Jitsi Meet, Skype and Wire.

The best alternative is Element, which is both free and Open Source.
