We use clearip.com for our fraud protection along with our Inteliquent trunks.  ClearIP also handles our STIR/SHAKEN, LCR and CNAM

Do either Bandwidth or Inteliquent have any fraud / overspending limits you can put in place? I have looked at something like thinQ in the past, and was impressed that their platform could put limits in place, like if international calls exceed $1,000 in a day, block all calls. I know this is more a function of the SBC / Softswitch, but a nice to have option.

We moved all of our services off of Inteliquent.  The support was absolute garbage, and they constantly raised rates a little at a time.  We took 20% off our costs going to Bandwidth, and support is lightning fast.  Coverage is identical as far as we can see in the US.  Most of our term and origination are with Bandwidth, and a bit with thinQ for a variety of reasons.  I'm considering porting all that to Bandwidth.  They say it's dangerous to have all your eggs in one basket, but BW has simply been 100% for us in every measure.  We'd probably still use thinQ as backup term.

If you had to choose only between these two providers for wholesale services, which would you choose and why? We are only considering these two as the softswitch we are planning on using (Netsapiens) has only built out Group MMS support for these two carriers APIs, and no one else.

I have used many services over the years that have utilized both of these carriers, but I have never had a direct relationship with them.

Which has a better portal, API, and company overall? What are the true differences?

Are there any resellers to consider where we would still have direct access to these carriers APIs?
