Is Jajah just a fancy Asterisk Outfit?

Its interesting to read about all the interoperability Jajah has with Asterisk boxes and providers until you come to a point and start wondering - what is the difference between the thousands of Asterisk based providers on the internet and a company like Jajah. What sets the two apart? Lets dive into that.

A more in depth look at Jajah reveals that they also support SIP and I am probably not the first one raising such a question. Blogs such as this one which rave about Jajah give out a lot of misleading information - like Jajah is a peer-to-peer system like Skype. Well... some times too much advertising can turn people off as well.

What is clear is that Jajah has done a good job in differentiating themselves from other VoIP providers by focusing on mobile markets and better marketing. They definitely think a lot bigger than a lot of other Asterisk providers and smaller VoIP outfits I have come across. To summarise, Jajah is cool because they have done a good job on marketing and staying ahead of others, for example offering iPhone support.
