Thank you for asking. "Enterprise grade" can be a vague marketing term. This is what Voxeo means when we say PRISM is "enterprise grade":

1. Fault tolerant: Including the ability to do state-full failover of applications from one PRISM server instance to another.

2. Scalable: Proven ability to scale to over 25,000 calls per server.

3. High performance: Proven ability to scale to over 800 call setups (new calls) per second per server.

4. Standards-based: PRISM implements the Java SIP servlet standards (JSR-289) and Java Media Control standard (JSR-309). PRISM applications can run unmodified on similar platforms from Oracle, IBM, and Redhat - and vice versa.

5. Support: PRISM is backed by a company with guaranteed 24x7 support, under 20 minute response times, over 150 employees, world-wide offices, financial stability, and 10 years of experience.

On top of that, yes, PRISM is often used in the enterprise and by service providers. :)

PRISM is also used for everything we do at Voxeo. All of our products and services, including Tropo, are built on top of PRISM.
