(Digium) nor FreeSwitch offer a commercially viable product that competes directly with Broadsoft or provides a service provider management interface. My assumption is that the interface for provisioning and user management etc. is the driving force behind
the use of the word “commercial” but I prefer not to make that assumption and ask the original poster to clarify those points.</span></p>

Cbeyond bought a company called Aretta that did Asterisk in containers - one for each customer. It became unmanageable.<br>
