[VoiceOps] Vendor Pros\Cons

[Charles Boening]

We have a mix of TDM and SIP for PSTN connectivity.

I heard there were issues with Netsapiens servicing customers in different states and/or LATAs within a single platform.  Not sure about your deployment but do you know if that's still the case?

We were a VocalData (aka Tekelec T6k, aka Genband M6, aka Broadsoft M6) shop that migrated to Broadworks.  We moved from Broadworks to Cisco PaaS (Broadworks) 4 years ago.   I just purchased Netsapiens with their fully managed solution and will be migrating customers away from Cisco PaaS to  Netsapiens.

IMHO Cisco has ignored Broadworks since they purchased it, feature set is falling behind.   We are 100% SIP in/out with 0 TDM anywhere in the network.

We've had customers we have migrated 3 times already,  time to migrate them a 4th (last??) time.

Who else operates at that tier? I'm talking to Ribbon. I'm hesitant to talk to to Broadsoft because they're part of Cisco, but if I should, I should...

Obviously, there are rather limited venues to gain third-party feedback on the platforms, so I figured I'd ask here.


Thanks.
