I get frustrated when people just paste generic answers so I'll help out by answering in more detail. Basically, when you buy from UReach, the underlying technology is very different. I don't know what UReach runs for sure, but they're what we call BlackBox infrastructures. You have no idea what keeps this company up and running, and given that UReach's CTO is a former Director for the Members of Technical Staff at AT&T, and since UReach has been around forever, it's probably safe to say that they're not running FreeSWITCH as their core (More likely big iron hardware; which is antithetical to a SaaS service like this). Profig will have a faster feature iteration time period because they're a smaller company, whereas it's much harder for UReach to dev new features. Also Profig has the added advantage of having a small core market: hosted PBX. They aren't (at least at this time) targeting providers; something UReach is doing actively. TL;DR: Profig runs on a great core, and they don't have 10+ years of embedded stuff to work through so their pace of feature iteration will be higher. Does that help answer the Question?

We're dealing with a flood of TC and HN visitors and sign-ups, hence my response above. I was going to come back and expound a bit more, but thanks for the elaboration.

  No problems buddy :). It's a pain in the ass to dig up BlackBox infrastructures and see what's inside. It basically boils down to: is it Open-Source, or is it Big Iron. If they don't talk about it, and the folks have tons of legacy Experience, it tends to be Big Iron (like AudioCodes Blades/Gateways or other such stuff). Keep kicking butt guys!

It tells me how uReach is different from a technical standpoint, and I realize that matters with respect to how their service (Profig) may evolve over time. Thanks.
