Why Choose SIP.US for Asterisk
A phone system includes two high-level components. First there's the PBX (private branch exchange), in this case Asterisk, which includes call management and additional features like voicemail, automated attendants, call distribution groups and so forth. The next component is a connection to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), which routes calls to their intended recipient. Traditional phone systems use carrier provided PRI (primary rate interface) lines to connect to the PSTN. SIP is an alternative that leverages a data network, rather than telephone lines, to deliver calls to the PSTN.
Customers choose to deploy SIP trunking with Asterisk for a variety of reasons including:
- Most companies recognize a cost savings from deploying SIP.US vs. traditional PRI lines
- SIP.US offers the flexibility to purchase as few as one channel at a time, giving you the ability to pay for only what you need now and grow at any time

- We leverage a Tier-1 redundant network to ensure both quality and reliability
- SIP.US has been tested for use specifically with the Asterisk platform and is leveraged in Asterisk deployments across the country

Low cost and good!
It’s easy to be low cost, but it’s a lot harder to be low cost AND good! In my opinion, SIP.US should be on anyone’s short list of primary providers.

Quality support, low price.
I wasn’t sure how to configure my Asterisk system to work with SIP.US. The SIP team was able to remotely access my system and set it up for me. I didn’t expect that level of support for such a low price.

Excellent support.
The reason we moved most of our VOIP to you is because of your excellent support. We moved from another provider but your support makes the extra money well worth it.
