Jeremy Davis and I work together to do Freeside installs as well - he installs the software, I work on the data transfer and integration with existing systems. We have six or seven running right now and have been using it for about four years.

It is open source based on Perl, Apache and Postgres SQL . It runs best on a Debian box but can be ported to others. If you need help installing Ivan can do the whole install for less than the cost of the license for most software. He can also customize it anyway that you want.

We are in the process of switching to Freeside.   I have demoed almost every

billing system out there and Freeside seems to be the most flexible and cost

effective.

Unless you have in-house developers who are comfortable with doing
Windows development (Visual Basic, if I remember correctly) Rodopi is a
nightmare.  My original ISP used it for about five years, and managed
4000+ customers with it.  It has some cool features, but we were never
able to get it to do exactly what we wanted to do and there were all
kinds of license requirements and extra charges.  I think we spent
nearly $10K over that five years in licensing alone - not to mention a
lot of custom development to get the information out of it that we
wanted.  We were actually exporting the entire sql database out of MsSQL
to a linux box with MySQL every morning so we could get the information
we needed out of it.   Man,  I don't miss those days.

The people on my staff who had experience with Rodopi and Freeside would
take Freeside any day.

Hi,

We have been running Rodopi for almost 8 years now. It works great and
we have never had a problem.
