Why the limitation to a PRI? From what I know, PRIs are limited to 23 (simultaneous) connections.
You can get multiple PRIs. and many will even do half PRIs.

Company Policy. We never have more then 4 calls at a time.

You should question the company policy and try to get it changed then. If you only have 4 calls at a time a PRI is way over kill (both in size and pricing).

We already have the PRI connection, it comes with our ISP package. What would you suggest over PRI?

As much as I would like it to, the company policy will not be changed, no matter how much I beg,

A SIP Trunk. I Doubt it comes with your internet package, maybe they put the costs together so you don't see the individual. I'm sure it's in no way a freebie included with the internet.

I agree. It's not free, but we are already paying for it.

Why does the fact that you are already paying for justify counting to pay for it?

They had to run fiber to the building so we are locked in for 5 years.

Holy Crap.
Looks like PRI Gateways are 2K.

We already have POTS lines. Do they make a POTS to VoIP Gateway that is cheaper?

How long ago did you sign the contract, you usually there is a MARC percentage that allows you to stop it after.

Why do you want to keep POTS lines?

I don't, but I can't drop that much money on this.

What do you mean that much money? What are you referring to that you need?

Have to try to do this for 5K

Ok? What part are you referring to that has to do with POTs lines. You are throwing out random facts that don't mean anything. Why do you needs POTS with a VoIP system? What part are you referring to that's so expensive?

use SIP if you can get a SIP Trunk, if you can't get a phone system that can take PRI/T1 Directly rather than use a PRI Gateway, it's not a requirement to have.

Why do you need a PRI Gateway? Look into Sangoma PRI cards (http://www.sangoma.com/telecom-interface-cards/digital-voice-and-data-boards/) they do an amazing job... the only downside is that you will need to do a physical server to host the phone system.
