We are evaluating a hosted VOIP platform from a company called Lignup ( www.lignup.com http://www.lignup.com/ ). They tell us we need a Session Border Controller to work as an intermidaetary between the customers and the VOIP PBX and the PSTN. They use or recommend NexTone. Will or does SER perform the same functions.

It depends on what the requirement for the SBC are. Many companies tell you this, but they can't tell you why. Ask them which task the SBC must handle. Then you will know if you can make it also with opensource (ser/asterisk).

IMO must scenarions can also be handled with open source avoiding the SBC mafia.
