Hi Stoyan,

I prefer Freeswitch, but I know that Asterisk can do prepaid and there are different prepaid solutions. Anyway, as the prepaid server is a mission-critical component, I would like to have your (and the community) opinion about the preferred architecture and experiences about opensource/commercial solution (advantages and drawbacks). All the billing solution are good enough for a service provider environment? How I can choose the right solution if all vendors say that their solution is the best one? :)

Regards,

I can suggest using Asterisk for prepaid job.
I mean you can use Kamailio and couple of Asterisk servers behind it to do prepaid. There are lot of prepaid solutions for Asterisk. But again, if I have to do it I will prefer my solution, or using parts from what is available.
PS
We did prepaid things for Asterisk.

    Hi all,

    I'm working in a project for a service provider in which prepaid
    is an essential requirement. They have about 12000 subscribers.
    The core infrastructure will be Kamailio+RTPProxy while I have
    some doubts about the prepaid feature. I'm thinking about a B2BUA
    (SEMS or Freeswitch) that is called if the user belong to a
    "prepaid group" and perform authorization and accounting; in this
    case the SIP flow could be: Kamailio -> B2BUA(Prepaid) ->
    Kamailio. Is a good choice?

    At the moment I cannot estimate the effort needed to develop this
    section (base prepaid feature) of the project... Do you have some
    hints?

    What are the prepaid solution implemented by you? Do you use your
    own developed solution or do you think that is better to choose a
    commercial solution (that provide also calling-card and other
    features)?
    I have seen some commercial products (Portabilling,
    Jerasoft/Bilberry, ...); what do you think about?


    Best Regards,
