Re: [Equipment] VOIP PBX Systems - what are you ru

Asterisk. When I was shopping for a system, I found I could put together a nice * system for less than half of a crappy ho-hum consumer grade PBX.
A major plus is direct VoIP termination on the * server. I don't know of too many proprietary systems that even offer it, let alone at a reasonable price.
The most expensive part would be the T1 card for *, but they still are not as much as what they cost for proprietary phone systems.
I hate to say it, but I agree that proprietary phone systems will soon be novelty "remember when" items. That's why I'm trying to learn as much about * as fast as I can. I believe my lively hood is going to depend on IP telephony in the next few years.

Re: [Equipment] VOIP PBX Systems - what are you ru

PBX's from Avaya and such are still going to be around. Many people struggle work a phone much less run linux or maintain a system, easy as it may be.

For asterisk to be taken seriously by big business (where the $$ is) they must be able to handle the advanced CTI and have a support network.

CK,

Ive done IP trunking with IP Office (and a bunch else too), Avaya made it very easy. The thing I really like about IP office is the scripting out of the box you get with the Attendant and VM. It's really very powerful if you know how to use it. Things I don't like are its POTS FXO's are flaky and simple things are made hard in the GUI- but the usually hard things did seem easy. Go figure
