NetSapiens does equipment, not service.

They are a bit more expensive than some alternatives but if they do what they said they would do (handle 100% of all porting) that can be worth a bit depending on how big an ass your losing carrier wants to be. If this is going to be a main revenue source I would tell you to go ahead and go direct to NS. If not, probably a pretty good deal. Others on this list, Like Chuck Bender, might make you a better deal depending on what you want. I don't do any residential but a key to VoIP success up front is to limit the number of devices you support. I choose to only support 3 phones and one fax. I don't do ATA's at all. Trunks I handle with Adtran only.

It's not fully white label as it requires the customer to use Ooma equipment (which means you can't use your own ATA). An interesting option for anyone looking to add VOIP service without any overhead. We're not doing this (yet) but have talked to Ooma a few times.
