One thing Centrex is that Asterisk is not is a turn key system. With Asterisk you have to either build the PBX your self or pay someone to build yu one. With Centrex you simply write a check.
THat said, you can build anything you want so of cource the feature list can match. The best way to learn what it can do is to build a small PBX with just a couple extensions. Try to build in all the funtionality you need in your larger system. If you get into trouble you may want to ask __specific__ questions like "I want to make XXX work, I triedd XXX and YYY but I still have this problem it it? You may have to post 50 questions like that one at a time. But you will get answers. Asterisk has a learning curve. expect it to take a few weeks of study But the bottom line is that Asterisk will do quite a bit more than Centrex. I don't think Centrex does VOIP at all --- "Christopher J.
