As far as billing in general, there are no easy answers.

Before VOIPo, I spent years in the web hosting industry. I remember when cPanel/WHM came out and it was one of the first real solid control panel solutions. It just allowed you to setup and terminate accounts and provided a control panel for the customer to manage features. There were no billing solutions then either. Bandwidth, disk space, etc were all very expensive then and we faced the same issues with how to handle overage charges, how to bill clients for their plan in the first place, etc. There was absolutely no integration.

Over the years more and more solutions for the hosting business came out and it and today it's a very easy business to enter into and there are tons of automated solutions that fully integrate billing, control panels, websites, etc.


VoIP is still in infancy. We spent over $1 million just on vPanel alone. There weren't even any commercial control panels for VoIP at all when we began. There are no entry-level commercial billing systems for VoIP.

Over time, we see things evolving just as the hosting industry did and it'll become more turnkey and more people will participate.

Those that make it work and stick with it from the beginning have a huge advantage over those that wait until it's "easy". When something is easy it becomes more saturated and there's less money to be made.

Right now there is absolutely 100% no competition in the VoIP market. 99.999% of the potential market doesn't even know what VoIP is.

With VoIP, we are trying to do what some have considered impossible and bridge the gap so that everyone can be part of the industry.

Sure, we'd love things to be more turn key, but ultimately the fact that we're able to offer what we're offering (access to wholesale pricing in 90% of the country with a control panel) for under $25 per month when just last year you'd need to spend hundreds of thousands to get the same thing is a pretty big jump and a complete game changer for the industry.

So really our reseller solution is right where hosting was when I started in that industry.

Over time we expect to add more and more to it and make it easier for everyone.
