RingCentral is listed in the United States and reported revenue of US$2.52 billion for calendar 2025, up from US$2.40 billion in 2024, making it the largest company in this list whose revenue comes mainly from business communications[3]. RingEX combines telephony with video meetings, messaging and fax in a single app. Every plan includes unlimited domestic calling, on-demand call recording and meetings for up to 300 participants, and the company has added AI tools including the AI Virtual Assistant, included on Core, and an AI Receptionist sold as an add-on from US$39[1].
