PortaSwitch overview

What is PortaSwitch?

PortaSwitch is a unified Service Management and Delivery Platform that combines Class 4/5 SIP softswitch functionality (PortaSIP) with a convergent real-time billing and Online Charging System (PortaBilling) in a single platform. It enables telecom operators, ISPs, MVNOs, and UCaaS providers to launch, manage, and monetize voice, messaging, IoT/M2M, and data traffic.

Key capabilities:

- Real-time billing and charging with fund locking to prevent balance overruns;

- Class 4/5 softswitch with SIP call routing and IP Centrex/Cloud PBX support;

- geo-redundant multi-site architecture with automatic failover and zero downtime during updates;

- open architecture with REST API and full source code access (unlimited license).

PortaSwitch is available as a one-time unlimited license (per-installation, not tied to subscriber count) or a monthly SaaS subscription based on billable events, for on-premise or cloud (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure) deployment.
