PortaSwitch overview

What is PortaSwitch?

PortaSwitch runs Class 4/5 soft switching (PortaSIP) and real-time billing with online charging (PortaBilling) on one platform, with an open REST API for easy integration. Wholesale carriers, MVNOs, ITSPs, and UCaaS/voice providers use PortaSwitch to run voice, messaging, IoT/M2M, and data traffic under a single BSS+OCS stack.

Key capabilities:

- Open REST API for integration, plus self-service pricing/plan changes – new rates and packages go live without waiting on a vendor release cycle

- Real-time billing and charging for prepaid and postpaid, with wallet/balance tracking and fund-locking against overruns

- Class 4/5 soft switch with SIP call routing, concurrent-call capacity for wholesale sizing, and Cloud PBX / IP Centrex for business telephony

- Wholesale and reseller layers, white-label ready

- Multi-site geo-redundancy with automatic failover

- Full source code access under an unlimited license

- Migration to PortaSwitch without interrupting live subscribers

PortaSwitch is sold as a one-time perpetual license (unlimited, not tied to subscriber count) or a monthly SaaS subscription based on billable events.

PortaSwitch can be deployed on-premise, fully on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, or in a hybrid setup, with billing and switching distributed across as many servers as your concurrent-call and redundancy requirements need – rather than being tied to a fixed platform minimum.
