How does FS compare with OpenSIPs?
Hello There's an excellent article on FS vs. Asterisk, but unless I missed it, there's no equivalent to OpenSIPs (www.opensips.org). At this point, apart from the fact that OpenSIPs is not available for Windows, how does FreeSwitch compare with OpenSIPs, what are the strengths and weaknesses of each project? I need to know before recommending one or the other. Thank you for any feedback.
FreeSWITCH is a B2BUA, OpenSIPS is a SIP proxy. Diego On Thu, Apr 16, 2009 at 5:45 AM, Gilles <codecomplete@free.fr> wrote:

Thanks Diego. Based on this list features list, what does FS offer that OpenSIPs doesn't? http://www.opensips.org/index.php?n=Resources.Features I don't know enough about VoIP etc. to be able to tell, but at first sight, it seems like OpenSIPs doesn't really handle PBX features, which would be a strong point in favor of FreeSwitch. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-does-FS-compare-with-OpenSIPs--tp23074733p23076256...

We try not to brag about ourselves or *sell* FreeSWITCH to people. A SIP proxy like openSIPS and a b2bua/media gateway like FreeSWITCH and meant to be used together. There is some overlap in SIP functionality but SIP is just one aspect of FreeSWITCH where SIP is the only thing OpenSIPS is for. That is why you find no comparison because it's like comparing a bus to a car they both have wheels they both can provide transportation but they serve different purposes.
