how do they make money? the unit costs can't cover all of their fees.
The Telo section is almost completely ripped off word for word from the engadget article. I rewrote it a little bit, but someone should probably rewrite the whole thing. Deputydog23 ( talk) 01:29, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
In addition, the "next generation" talk reads like a press release, rather than a NPOV. Furthermore the "next" generation and "will" wording should probably be rewritten to the present or past tense. -- Stannius ( talk) 00:36, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
On October 01, 2009, Ooma has launched a completely redesigned website with new video clips and other visual enhancements. Pricing, terms and conditions for new customers also have changed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.246.96.174 ( talk) 18:40, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
The company's correct, legal name is "Ooma", not "ooma". Only the logo is rendered in all-lowercase. — Quicksilver T @ 23:12, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

There should be some reference to the fact that Ooma is now available in Canada, and includes calling anywhere in Canada except The Yukon, NWT and Nunavut. Prices etc are similar to those in the USA. JJ Bosch ( talk) 17:56, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
The article should not read that it is "free" nor that there is no monthly fee.
"customers only pay applicable government taxes and access fees, around $3.50 a month" Should read "customers only pay only a small fee, around $3.50 a month, $4.50 in Canada" In many regions there are no access fees imposed by the government, and until Ooma makes it's books public to show that they collect no margin to cover their own operating expenses and that none of the "taxes" you are paying are those of Ooma, there is no evidence that there is anything entirely free, monthly, with Ooma.
The wording "government taxes and access fees" makes it unclear as to wether the access fees are those of government or those of Ooma or a blend of the two.
I have Ooma both in my US residence and my family's Canadian home. Their own information says the monthly charge covers their expenses, including taxes and fees.
I'm not complaining about Ooma, their service or support; we think it's a great deal... but it is not free every month. JJ Bosch ( talk) 18:09, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

The article sounds like an ad to me. Did Ooma write most of it themselves? I think some context about VOIP in general, including its pro's & con's, would be helpful. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.104.101.87 ( talk) 19:58, 14 December 2018 (UTC)

This is Mike from Ooma. The entry on our company had not been significantly edited for many months and was therefore very out of date.
I just made edits to update the entry, aiming to be factual rather than promotional.
I'm hoping another editor can review my changes to confirm they are legitimate, rather than automatically reverting them.
Thank you.

Thanks for reviewing my changes. As you recommended, I just submitted a rename request.
Can you advise me how to request an update to the financial information in the Ooma infobox? The data is from our 2017 fiscal year and should be for our 2020 fiscal year, which ended on Jan. 31, 2020. The information is available in our 10-K annual report at http://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0001327688/d7e2e0f1-c87d-4733-8d1c-4db8710be264.pdf.
Much appreciated.
