VoIP Spear review
A low-cost way to track endpoint VoIP quality every minute.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
VoIP Spear is an online network-quality monitoring service for individuals, businesses, service providers, and resellers. It continuously tests VoIP endpoints and measures MOS, latency, jitter, and packet loss. Alerts can identify degraded network quality, while historical data and reports help track performance over time. The service supports web access, Windows and Mac Sentry monitoring software, and a REST API on selected plans. It is suited to teams that need endpoint visibility without a large monitoring deployment.
Pricing is structured around endpoint count and monitoring depth. Lite costs $14.95 per month for one endpoint, one-minute testing, two testing servers, one week of results, and low-quality VoIP alerts. Plus costs $29.95 per month for three endpoints, three servers, and API access. Premium costs $59.95 per month for 10 endpoints, three servers, two weeks of results, and API access. Service Provider Plans cover 25 to 10,000 endpoints and include one year of historical results and API access. A 30-day trial is available, and annual payment saves 20%.
The product’s strongest fit is focused endpoint monitoring rather than broad VoIP infrastructure observability. Its MOS scoring and measurements for jitter, packet loss, and latency provide a useful quality baseline, with testing from globally located servers adding geographic perspective. The scope is narrower for teams seeking SIP-trunk or synthetic-call monitoring, and integrations are centered on the REST API rather than a stated ecosystem of connectors. Choose VoIP Spear for affordable, continuous endpoint quality checks; consider an alternative when call-path simulation or deeper platform integration is the priority.
