Hmmm they used to be an outright purchase model. I agree that's insane. The whol reason for purchasing to use 'inhouse' rather than using a hosted service is for a one-off fee rather than continually paying subscription.
....wonder how that's working out for them :) Regards, Dean Collins Cognation Pty Ltd [EMAIL PROTECTED] +1-212-203-4357 +61-2-9016-5642 (Sydney in-dial). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Patrick Sent: Wednesday, 12 December 2007 9:29 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Video Conference Or Server Hi Dean, On Wed, 2007-12-12 at 08:19 -0500, Dean Collins wrote: > Is anyone actually using Blindside commercially? > > I spoke with Steve a long time ago and never heard anything back about beta > versions once they were stable. > > And yes as much as I hat to say it I still recommend WiredRed to people when > they ask. You must have gotten a really good deal as nearly $10k for 25 users per year (website -> prices) seems rather steep to me. Really quick math so corrections welcome :) $9600/yr / 12 = $800/mo divided by [4 * 40 = 160 business hours/mo * 60 mins = 9600 minutes/mo] = $0,12. A cost of 12 cents/minute is pretty high considering it does not include the hardware, colo, power, cooling, bandwidth, support etc. Google shows tons of alternatives that charge only a few cents/minute. Besides functionality, how is this interesting from a business point of view? What am I missing here?
