[...] The cost/benefit I'd recommend is to try VoIP.ms, and see how far you can get with just their services and SIP clients. You'd definitely have more power and flexibility with your own Asterisk/FreeSWITCH server, but it takes a lot more work to understand, setup, and manage.
I should add for clarity that I meant your own Asterisk/FreeSWITCH server *in between*. VoIP.ms still makes sense regardless of whether you're connecting to it with SIP clients directly, or connecting to it with an Asterisk/FreeSWITCH server and connecting your SIP clients to Asterisk/FreeSWITCH. The latter option is more work but gives you more power; trying the former first is a good intermediate step that can satisfy your simpler requirements fast and defer the decision on whether or not to host your own server.
