Zoom Phone is the natural add-on when your team already lives in Zoom meetings: it bolts a capable cloud phone system onto the Zoom Workplace app most of your people already have open, with US & Canada metered or unlimited plans.
It is priced as phone bundles on top of a Workplace tier, so the per-user number depends on which meetings plan you pair it with.
