Cannon VoIP vs. 8x8

8x8 doesn't publish pricing. You find out what it costs after a sales call. Cannon VoIP's price is public, flat, and the same for every extension: $34/month, everything included.

5-user scenario: what you'd actually pay per month

Cannon VoIP

$170/month

5 extensions × $34, all-in. No regulatory fee, no E911 fee, no support-tier fee: unlimited domestic calling and texting, AI call/voicemail transcription, and CRM integration all included.

8x8

~$312/month

Cannon VoIP has no annual commitment, so this uses 8x8's real month-to-month rate: 5 × ~$57/user (X4 tier month-to-month, for CRM + international calling + unlimited domestic calling/texting) = $285, plus reported regulatory ($3.49/ext) and E911 ($1.99/ext) fees ($27.40/month for 5 extensions). (The $44/user figure only applies if you prepay a full year.) AI transcription availability at this tier isn't publicly confirmable: 8x8 doesn't publish full tier-by-tier feature specs. X4 covers call barging and whisper coaching, but matching our skill-based routing and full supervisor analytics needs the X6 Contact Center tier, reported around $85/user/month, on top.

Pricing & contract

$34/extension/month flat, all-in: unlimited domestic calling and texting included. No long-term contract: month to month.

Not publicly listed: reported ranges run roughly $24–$44/user/mo for business plans, $75–$140+/agent for contact center, quote-based, often multi-year.

Add-ons & hidden fees

None. One flat rate per extension: no separate module pricing, no quote required.

Onboarding/professional services, quality management, analytics modules, and annual price escalators (3–5%/yr) are typically priced and negotiated separately.

Contract lock-in & termination fee

None: month-to-month. Leave anytime with no early termination fee.

Multi-year contracts commonly include an early termination fee if you cancel before the term ends; terms are set at the time of your custom quote.

Setup & onboarding

We handle every step of onboarding and set your team up for success, then call us anytime during business hours to add, change, or fine-tune any feature, big or small.

Sales-led process; onboarding and professional services for larger deployments can run into the thousands of dollars.

Customer support & reliability

Standard support Mon–Fri, 9 AM–5 PM; if a system is down or it's urgent, a real person is reachable 24/7, no ticket queue, no support tier to unlock.

Faster support response requires an upgrade to a paid Premier/Elite tier; the admin interface is frequently described as dated, and CCaaS implementation has a steep learning curve.

Integrations

Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace, Zoho, HubSpot, Odoo: included, GoHighLevel coming soon.

CRM and analytics integrations are generally reserved for higher-tier or Contact Center products, sold separately from the base UC plan.

International calling

$0.25/min to common countries, $1.75/min to less-common countries, rare/high-cost destinations quoted separately.

Unlimited calling to 48 countries requires the top Work tier at roughly $44/user/month, more than Cannon VoIP's entire $34/extension base price, before a single international call is made.

Hardware & BYOD

Bring your own desk phone if it's on our compatibility list, or get our VoIP-6 ($198) or an ATA adapter ($99). We never rent or lease equipment: it's yours to keep, purchased outright.

Supports BYOD and softphones; IP desk phones are typically purchased separately, commonly $50–$300+ per device.

Bottom line: 8x8 can be a fit for large teams that need a combined UC + contact center platform and don't mind a sales-led process. If you want a real price on a real webpage, Cannon VoIP publishes it: $34/extension, everything included.

Pricing and plan details reflect publicly reported 8x8 rates as of mid-2026 and are subject to change. Confirm current pricing directly with 8x8, since 8x8 does not publish full pricing online.
