Re: [WISPA] Platypus Pricing Change / Free version

I am sure they will give you a demo.. (they used to have the web 
interface demo, not sure if it is still there.)
You could also ask them for a copy of the Users Guide.

It is not a 'quick and dirty' program to use. Rather a powerful billing 
platform, that will need some work / time and thought to setup and once 
that is done, along with integration with stuff like , radius / external 
scripts / IP Pay / Web Interface / etc ... works rather well and is one 
of the few packages that has continued support / development on the back 
side.

For Hot Spot, you may want to use something that is more appropriate 
 Platy is not a Hotspot manager. It  'aint perfect,  but it is  a 
decent platform to build on.

 Never mind, not even a option for me then. I have no Microsoft servers
 at all. Till a few weeks ago I did not even
 have a pc with Windows as the primary OS. As it is I only have Win7
 for gaming. I have my 10 year old XP in a

 That is good as I keep everything in radius. I do need to upgrade to
 something a little more 'all in one' but looks like I will roll it
 myself.

Ah 'upto' must be assumed, or asked, since its not explicit.  As said
using it for a hotspot is not the best idea, nor can I see using it
since it does not (look) to have a flexible back end, and for the
monthly fee, I would expect more. Ive found many hotspot managers that
do everything i see this do (im sure i am missing) for less.

Re: [WISPA] Platypus Pricing Change / Free version

2011-01-29 Thread Chuck Hogg
We had radius tied in, but we redid our radius deployment, and never
reintegrated it because we decided to wait for v7.  It's almost like they
copied our database or thoughts in regards to services (we added custom
fields that are showing up in v7, service based radius, service locations,
etc.)that is something that will change how they use radius.  However,
we have scripts tied into Platypus that can suspend customers, and do other
things.  I'm supposed to get with them on Monday to get the v7 upgrade.
 Pricing is at: http://www.ispbilling.com/products/pricing.php

<http://www.ispbilling.com/products/pricing.php>I don't think you would want
to use it for hotspot.

Regards,

Chuck

There is a gap between 100 and 250. I read it to say 249 or less is
free. Other can read it to mean 101 and up is $99.

That is why I asked about why it does/they do.

Never mind, not even a option for me then. I have no Microsoft servers
at all. Till a few weeks ago I did not even
have a pc with Windows as the primary OS. As it is I only have Win7
for gaming. I have my 10 year old XP in a
virtual machine for the few times I need IE.

That is good as I keep everything in radius. I do need to upgrade to
something a little more 'all in one' but looks like I will roll it
myself.

We are using this, yes.

Price for software  as per url enclosed.
You would run the software on your machine(s).. just pay for software on 
monthly basis
It uses MSSql for it's database, and can be integrated with external 
thirdparty radius servers.
(radius is not included with the software).

For HotSpot Support you would have to ask others who are doing something 
similar. We are using this for regular subscribers.

Are you using this? Whats the price for 101 to 249 users? For a
monthly bill, are they billing your customers directly? How, or do,
they support hotspots and random users? Do they host the user database
or do you? Is it plain radius or something else?

Chuck,

 

I think I asked you this when we spoke on the phone a while back but do you
have Plat tied back into your network through radius? Or were you waiting
for V7 to come out?
