Kamailio SIP Server is very well suited if you want to secure your main servers; it can perfectly act as a proxy server and a gateway to your main server. It also does load balancing and call transfers easily based on the configurations done.

  • System uptime is tremendous, I almost forget it exists on my server rack.
  • Desktop software is very easy to learn, I can train new receptionists within a few minutes and they don't have to memorize extensions or rely on a sheet of numbers
  • Call recording works well, I am able to find calls based on a number of criteria and it finds the calls fast and I can easily export them for use.

  • There are a few interfaces for working with the system and it can be daunting to learn
  • They charge quite a bit annually and if you miss an update they charge you additional fees to catch up.

Alternatives Considered
Open Source
As Kamailio SIP Server is an open source, the major impact is on cost; it's free to use compared to any other Softswitch or server in the market. You can also customize it to your need and use the features that you need, which is one of the major plus points for the Kamailio SIP Server. And one server is enough to handle thousands of calls simultaneously.
