Yodel Alternative: Why Telzio is the Best Brevo Alternative for Small Businesses
With no per-user fees, robust SMS capabilities, and toll-free numbers, Telzio stands apart as the best Brevo alternative.

If you were using Yodel for your business communications, you know the service has now been discontinued. Yodel was phased out as an independent service and replaced by Brevo Phone, its parent company. For many small businesses, this transition means it’s time to find a reliable, easy-to-use alternative to their Yodel (now Brevo) phone systems.
Customer Spotlight: How Telzio Helped a Global Mental Health Support Line
A volunteer-run nonprofit providing mental health support worldwide needed a new provider after Yodel.io’s discontinuation. With toll-free numbers in the US, UK, and Australia, and a team of about 150 volunteer agents, they handled moderate call volume, roughly 7,500 minutes per month, mostly inbound.
With the budget considerations typical of a charitable organization, user-based pricing models were not ideal.
Switching to Telzio gave them unlimited users without per-agent fees and affordable local and toll-free numbers, making it the ideal VoIP phone service for their mission-driven work.
