@Each1teach1x27 I'll get back to you later on

Sounds good
-
Interesting.
I currently have a PRI that I pay $600/month for, but I'm ditching it in a month or so for the SIP trunks I already have as well that cost me around $300 a month unlimited mins.
-
$600 is too much for a PRI. Was it a integrated circuit or straight PRI?
If you are ordering 23 SIP trunks to match the call path quanity of your existing PRI then $300 is resasonable -

I think the SIP might be 20, burstable to something like 30.

@Dashrender Those damn PRI vendors SMH. I may be able to to find something (SIP) a little more afordable. Hang tight

It's OK, management does not want to go with a over the internet based SIP. She's just legacy minded and currently unwilling to let go.

What about access to Non-Profits? -

That's just painful. You've done you're job tho, good for you.

@gjacobse Depends on what state but a lot of carriers do abide by certain programs for Non-profits. In CA a big one is the California Teleconnect Fund
-
@Dashrender that's unfortunate.

One nice thing though - pricing for unlimited is really good, and the vendor is responsible all the way into my building to their gateway device.

@Dashrender Nice!
