Ileane Smith's List: GoogleApps

As of now calls to US and Canada are going to be be free, at least till the end of the year and calls to other countries would be billed at extremely low rates. Prices offered by Google are very competitive.

 

If you are used to using Skype for making international calls, you would find that the rates offered by Google are lower. You can view the comparison table, which shows the Google call rates being considerably cheaper than other leading Online Telephony providers.
