Scalable voip providers
I'm working on a project that requires pstn "break-in" (ie, forwarding pstn numbers to a sip trunk) in the UK, to a Freeswitch box that will also use a (possibly different) sip trunk provider to dial numbers in the US. In the UK, we will eventually need contiguous blocks of perhaps a few hundred numbers (although most numbers will just step to an available channel), and may handle up to a few hundred simultaneous calls. Likewise, the sip trunk provider for outbound dialling needs to support potentially up to a few hundred calls, although these call volumes won't be there initially - more like probably about 20-30 simultaneous calls. I've done a fair bit of searching, but most voip providers seem to cater for home users who just want to replace their landline. What I need is probably bordering on wholesale providers. If the UK provider could arrange the number blocks too, that would be even better. Can anyone recommend a provider or providers that would fit the requirements above, and that plays nicely with Freeswitch? If you're wondering if this is a toll-bypass voip provider project that may infringe your own business, don't worry. It's a distributed call centre business.
Hey Daniel,
Can anyone recommend a provider or providers that would fit the requirements above, and that plays nicely with Freeswitch?
You don't mention to what level of concurrency, but I would recommend AQL or Magrathea (the former being a bit more open as to their available capacity). http://www.aql.com/ http://www.magrathea-telecom.co.uk/ HTH -- Regards, Jay Fenton <jay.fenton@howlertech.com> CTO, Howler Technologies Ltd t: +44 (0)207 099 7095 f: +44 (0)207 099 7098 Registered in England & Wales, Company No. 06285634

I still have an account with Magrathea and works fine for UK based clients. If you don't wish to go direct feel free to contact me off list and I'll see what can be done. Solid suggestion though and API for DIDs is a nice touch and you can request blocks if they are available. -- William
