SIP.US as SIP Trunk Provider
Using SIP.US, I was able to lower my monthly phone costs by 10s of thousands of dollars per month.
PROSI had poor results transitioning from POTS/ISDN to SIP with another provider. SIP.US made the port much simpler and handled the interaction with an uncooperative telco. The website management capability is outstanding. Updating e911 data as people move locations is as simple as entering the info and clicking SAVE. The support portal is easy to use and very responsive. Detailed billing is easy to view.
CONSThe one are that could be improved is notifications when you exceed trunk capacity. Rather than a notice that you exceeded it at some time in the past month, I'd like something closer to real-time notification with time/date to allow me to better adjust my trunk requirements.
Reasons for switching to SIP.US
They were unable/unwilling to follow through on the initial port. Support was unhelpful, leaving me to attempt to broker between two companies - neither of whom would work with me.

SIP.US saved the day and changed how I look at phone service forever.
When I happened across SIP.US in a google search on the weekend when our physical phone system crashed and we had to build a virtual one quickly and get it up and running before Monday, I had never used SIP trunks before. I had not used them because I was unsure of the technology and worried about call quality, the phone company always wanted to bring in a separate circuit to run SIP trunks (more bureaucracy and red tape). SIP.US was fast and easy to get going and JUST WORKS! We enjoy great call quality with SIP.US and have the flexibility to add and remove phone numbers and trunks at will. We can respond to market conditions instantly scaling up or down at will. I wish I would not have waited so long to give this service a try it really does change the way that we think about voice service. I suggest using the free trial and just giving it a shot, once you sign in and see the portal and all that you can do INSTANTLY you will be hooked.
PROSSIP.US is very quick and easy to set up and use. I set it up at around 10pm on a weekend when our phone system had died and we had to recreate a virtual one that could not connect to our existing PRI. Without talking to anyone I had a SIP trunk up and taking calls in less than half an hour without having any previous SIP trunk experience. The next day (on a weekend!) I received a call from the executives at SIP.US to make sure I had everything that I needed. The support team proceeded to help us get all of our numbers ported as quickly as possible (you can do this from the web portal but they were just being nice.) Once I understood the ease of use (no calling and waiting for the phone company to wait through their bureaucracy), reliability and clarity of using SIP trunks through SIP.US I could no longer imagine relying on a traditional phone company for phone service. SIP.US is a game changer, we have never looked back. SIP.US is how phone service should be.
CONSI have not found anything to dislike. SIP.US does what it says it is going to do and keeps on doing it. Full control of my phone service from a web browser, what's not to like?

SIP.us service
SIP.us allowed me to be operational on multiple platforms. Integration is simple, number selection is good, and implementation is fast. I had a client that needed to LNP 100 DID's and get services up quickly...SIP.us team had me up and working within 2 hours. The numbers were ported very quickly with no issues.
PROSIt's easy to use and it gets the job done. I've been using the service for over 4 years and it's been fantastic. I use it with X-Lite, Cisco CME, Kerio, Cisco phones converted to SIP, GrandStream, etc. The documentation around setup is easy to follow. I'm a consultant and i travel all over and i'm able to connect where ever i go.
CONSI've had a few issues with address validation when setting up billing...but i made a phone call and support resolved it over the phone. I haven't had any issues with service.

Excellent & easy to use service.
Have been connected to SIP.US for many years. They've updated the web site to make it even friendlier and self-service is a snap. The only issues I've run into were local to my network & ISP but the support team was able to provide enough clues as to likely cause that I was able to get things up and running.
PROSI have a home lab with a couple of Asterisk servers. Provisioning trunks & numbers is a breeze. I do contract work for businesses in London & Auckland and setting up a local DID is super helpful. Since my usage is quite variable I really appreciate the prepaid pay for what you use plans.
CONSHaven'r run into any snags. I would appreciate SMS options for significantly less cost (although I haven't looked into this in a while).

SIP.us is a great vendor partner
SIP.US gave us the ability to provide VOIP managed services without needing the expensive and complex trunking issues. I have always been confident in transferring the phone numbers to sip.us.
PROSThe timely support when I was having issues with my software or my clients software interfacing with sip.us was invaluable. They contacted me directly when there was an administrative (billing issue), which was appreciated. I also like the flexible services and ability to setup trunk accounts.
CONSI'd like to see some advances in encrypting the sip traffic and the ability for me to resell trunk accounts to my customers

Set it up and forget it
Sip.us easily integrates with our Asterisk PBX. Their customer portal is simple and straight forward to use. We have been using them for years and their uptime has been excellent.
CONSWhen we had an 800 number, we had to pre-pay blocks of dollars for those calls. It was awkward from an accounting standpoint. We don't have the toll free number anymore so that is no longer an issue.
Reasons for switching to SIP.US
Clarity only supported Asterisk as a side business and it was difficult to work with them. Sip.us had competitive pricing and they offered complete support for Asterisk.

SIP US -
Obviously using them for seven years the overall experience is good. There is room for improvement, but management hasnt seemed interested in making improvements.
PROSFairly simple to implement. Over the past seven years I have used the service it has been very reliable.
CONSBilling can be a bit confusing and customer service a bit difficult at times. This situation has improved over the years however. You have a mix of prepaid and billing which can cause confusion and extra steps. DID billing doesnt come out of prepaid funds like most services. It is billed seperatly and cannot be prepaid.

Tip of the Hat to SIP.US
After nearly 5 years the internal SIP.US team continues to be a thought leader when we need new solutions. It happens often that we present an idea and they say "we have been working on that" and they can show us examples of their progress. Priceless.
PROSThe portal for searching for available numbers is very easy to use. We have even integrated our Slack channel into the product so that Sales personnel can use it with the clients.
CONSAt this point there is nothing that comes to mind regarding "least liked".
Reasons for switching to SIP.US

Highly recommended provider!
SIP.US was our choice for SIP trunking when we cut ties with a bundled managed service provider. The service level has been outstanding, availability being something we take for granted. Their customer service and support are refreshingly effective, which can be rare with traditional telecom.
PROSEase of use to convert our SIP services over to a new provider. The porting process was seamless, the customer service communication was effective, and the after cutover support has been stellar.
CONSNothing I can think of offhand. Perhaps additional reporting aside from just call records. For example a channel utilization report.
Reason for choosing SIP.US
Better value, better support.

Great
PROSEasy to set up, I'm an avaya guy and simple to setup, had a few issues but the tech support guy was awsome. I feel the YouTube videos made were because of me and avaya issues. But working great and has been for a long time. I have set up a few customers with sip.us for cost savings
CONSOnly issue is with web portal, the size format is wrong you have to do a lot of mousing to get to submit buttons but that's it.
