I would be VERY cautions about being and IP to IP middleman.  Any problems with your ISP or your wholesale providers ISP OR your wholesale providers connection to the phone network which could be yet another company.   Your gonna get grey hair and a LOT of unhappy customers REAL fast if any one of these things are not 100% solid 100% of the time.  It's not like running your own webserver.  Not even close.
 
Just my 2 cents and I would be interested to hear others opinions/experiences on this.

Hello,
 
No need to buy an expensive package to get into the hosted PBX business.
 
You can easily set up your own linux server and install a low cost or free web based management system.
 
If you are going for an IP only service then there is no need for Digium hardware either.
 
I suggest you take a very good look at Thirdlanes latest Multi-Tenant PBX Manager.  Easy to install and gives you management
interfaces for the system administrator,  tenant (customer) and individual phone users. 
Needs no SQL database, no Apache, no PHP and no extra Perl modules.
 
Sign up with a wholesale provider like Junction, Teliax or PacWest and you could be in business by tomorrow.
 
Mike

Okay, this is probably a stupid question for you guys but I am still a novice so don’t laugh!

We want to provide a hosted PBX solution for small businesses and have been offered 200 extensions held server (i.e. 20 companies with each co. having 10 extensions).  

Isn’t this just an asterisk solution that we are being sold through a middle man? 

Can’t we do this in house by purchasing our own server and purchasing licenses and perhaps hardware from Digium?

Any guidance is greatly appreciated!

Susan
