Re: [asterisk-users] German SIP and/or IAX providers?
Hello Ken, Hi, all. My company is setting up a branch office in Germany, and I'm very interested in a VoIP provider over thataway. as I am living in Germany, let me advise you against using VoIP providers in Germany. Most of the time they do work, but they are not as reliable as a regular phone company. What I do is, use a regular phone line (ISDN BRI) for incoming traffic, and utilize the VoIP providers for dialing out. What is your reasoning for a VoIP provider? BTW: The language should not be the problem. The service is poor, no matter what language... -- Best regards Peer Oliver Schmidt PGP Key ID: 0x83E1C2EA ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

And that's about -it-. I'm even willing to pay a reasonable premium, so long as it gets me a VoIP provider with the above restrictions. save your money and spend it for ISDN lines as long as the calls have more then 80% final destination in your local office. Consider also that your DSL line can go down, thats not the responsibilty of the SIP provider. ISDN is in Germany extremly reliable. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Hi, on the one hand, I should ignore this thread, because it is not asterisk related, and risks to distribute commercial information, on the other hand, I think, at least one different opinion should be opposed to Peer Oliver's statement: I would agree, that there are big differences. Anyway, there are some VoIP providers who have specialiced in providing very reliable VoIP service to companies. ISDN technology is without any doubt (still) the most reliable thing in the telephony market. However, the difference to VoIP service offered by an appropriate company is imho almost negligible. Especially some small or medium sized providers offer very good customer support.

[asterisk-users] German SIP and/or IAX providers?
Hi, all. My company is setting up a branch office in Germany, and I'm very interested in a VoIP provider over thataway. However, I'd need a few things: - Reliability. Can't have my branch office's DID's just going down. A company with a proven track record would be very, very good. - English. I speak great English, decent Spanish... and zilch German. So, as provincial as it might make me, I need a company I could talk to if the chips are down. And that's about -it-. I'm even willing to pay a reasonable premium, so long as it gets me a VoIP provider with the above restrictions. Any suggestions? Thanks much! -Ken ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
