Seems like upgrading between revs of FreePBX that are based on different major 
revs of Asterisk is a huge hassle though.  And FreePBX has menus only a mother 
could love, meaning they are ugly and confusing if you want customers to use 
them.

 

Commercial appliances that put a skin over Asterisk or FreePBX aren’t 
necessarily lightyears better, and presumably the ones that look professional 
cost a lot more.

 

Like everything, you can have cheap or nice, pick one.

 

Or I guess if you have a programmer available, you can customize FreePBX.

I haven't kept up on this for the past 3 years at least.

Is there a small business VoIP appliance that people like?

What about Asterisk+FreePBX distributions like PBX-in-a-Flash or 
Asterisk@Home?  They kept having severe security issues with FreePBX, so 
I'd be a little shy about going down that road, but if it's improved in 
the past few years I'd try it again.  My other problem with FreePBX is 
that it made some hard things very easy and some easy things very hard 
(compared to editing asterisk config files).   I'm not sure it actually 
saved me much time over using vanilla Asterisk.
