Why Choose SIP.US for Elastix?
Every business phone system needs software to manage call control and additional telephony features like voicemail, automated attendants, call queues and so forth. This functionality and more is provided by Elastix. The phone system also needs a way to deliver calls to the network that routes them to their final destination. This network is known as the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN.) Calls can be delivered to the PSTN via traditional carrier telephone lines, or over the data network. SIP is an option that connects to the PSTN by using a data network and by passing the legacy carrier lines. Customers choose to deploy SIP for Elastix using SIP.US for a number of reasons:
- The SIP + Elastix approach is usually significantly cheaper than carrier PRI lines
- SIP.US offers customers the option to subscribe to just one channel at a time. Traditional telephone lines are sold in groups of 23 channels, meaning the customers often pay for more than they need
- Customers who want the flexibility to choose their own broadband Internet connection choose SIP.US because we do not require clients to purchase bandwidth from us
- Our on-demand online administration tools make it easy to manage your SIP trunk and purchase additional channels as needed
- Voice quality and reliablity are important to our customers. Therefore we use only Tier-1 upstream providers
- SIP.US has been designed to support many open source call control solutions, including Elastix

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.

All the tools I need.
The SIP.US Control Panel gives me all the tools I need to add, change and delete phone numbers. I can even order all the DIDs I need and set them up instantly. I love having access to these self-service tools, but I know the support team is also there if I need additional help.

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.

Fast and easy set-up.
I don’t have any experience with SIP trunking, but connecting my Asterisk PBX to SIP.US was fast and easy.

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.
