Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing originating number or address -based route determination and routing. In various embodiments, a computing system may receive, from a first router among a plurality of routers in a first network operated by a first service provider, first SIP data, the first SIP data indicating a request to initiate a SIP-based media communication session between a calling party at an originating address in an originating network and a called party at a terminating address in a terminating network. The computing system may determine a communication route among a plurality of routes through the plurality of routers in the first network for establishing the SIP-based media communication session, based at least in part on the originating address, and may establish the SIP-based media communication session between the calling party and the called party via the determined communication route.

Methods and apparatus are disclosed for reducing wireless telecommunication costs for enterprises having a plurality of PBX-equipped sites, connected by either a public network (e.g., the PSTN, the Internet, etc.), a private network (e.g., leased lines, a virtual private network [VPN] over the Internet, etc.), or some combination of public and private networks. In particular, the illustrative embodiments of the present invention attempt to reduce telecommunication costs by advantageously routing calls from an off-premises wireless terminal belonging to the enterprise via one or more of the enterprise's private branch exchanges. The present invention is especially advantageous in that it can reduce telecommunication costs for calls from an off-premises wireless terminal to any type of destination: another cell phone, a wireline terminal, a private branch exchange, etc.

Techniques are described for managing out of service telephone numbers (TNs) before returning them to active service. A telephone number profile score may be calculated for an out of service TN entering an aging protocol, the aging protocol comprising a pre-determined number of days the TN must remain out of service. The out of service TN may then be assigned a profile based on its telephone number profile score, the profile indicative of how quickly the TN will achieve one or more quality thresholds. The number of days from entry into the aging protocol it will take the TN to achieve the one or more quality thresholds based on its assigned profile may be determined. The quality threshold status of the TN may then be updated each time it crosses one of the quality thresholds. Once it completes the aging process, the TN may be placed into an inventory of TNs eligible for active service. Thereafter, the quality threshold status of the TN may continue to be updated each time it crosses one of the quality thresholds.

A universal phone number service and method of providing a universal phone number service that allows a user to receive phone calls on any phone service with a single phone number. A telephone is disclosed that is associated with more than one phone number and a universal phone number, wherein any phone call placed to the universal phone number results in the call being completed to the telephone regardless of the service associated with the more than one phone number.

A unified platform for managing telephone number (TN) ordering and procurement lifecycles is provided. The unified platform provides or interacts with functionality for reservations, porting, conflict checks, testing, and industry notification functionality. An associated graphical user interface provides the functionality to a variety of users including customers, salespeople, and order managers.

Provided is a country-specific telephone number system analysis system. The system includes a telephone number system analysis logic server; a number analysis machine learning system; a country-specific international call service provider information database; a country-specific telephone number system information database; and a telephone call connection logic database. The telephone number system analysis logic server receives a target telephone number of a telephone call from a user terminal, and checks whether the target telephone number conforms to an international telephone number system protocol. When it is determined that the target telephone number does not conform to the international telephone number system protocol, the number analysis machine learning system identifies a country corresponding to the target telephone number by accessing the country-specific telephone number system information database. When the country and an international call service provider are identified by the number analysis machine learning system, the target telephone number is dialed after adding a dial code of the international call service provider and a country code as prefixes before the target telephone number, based on the telephone call connection logic database.

Technologies for routing an outbound telecommunication from an enterprise telecommunications device to a destination telecommunications device in a contact identification system are disclosed. The system determines the classification of a dialed address using a number plan that may be created by a user from a plurality of predetermined match types. Once the classification of the dialed address is determined, the system routes the outbound telecommunication on a routing path chosen for that classification of telecommunication. Additional embodiments are described herein.
