What sells our clients in our Demo room is that we have a Cisco 7960/7940, Polycom IP500, IP600, a GrandStream BudgeTone 101 and of course a laptop with FireFly on it. They love to see how all the different phones can integrate. It shows them that they're not locked down to one model phone always, they can experiment with new phones and features and interfaces. They love it.
Another thing is we have each phone on an extension of course, but we also setup a hunt group, a call group, an extension that rings 1 phone for a few rings then rings all the others after no answer (secretary first, then the office can help if they're too busy), etc. it gives them an idea of just how configurable the extensions are. I also have an extension that can dynamically turn on and off a little demo IVR we have setup. Clients have used this to turn on/off the IVR, or activate an after hours voicemail, etc. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Adam Goryachev Sent: Thursday, December 09, 2004 12:25 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: [Asterisk-Users] How to demo the Power of Asterisk Hi all, I have the opportunity to demo asterisk to a large group of people, and was just wandering *how* to do that? ie, I can put a couple of phones on a desk, which looks nice, but doesn't really look exciting, because they are just phones.... so, how do you 'demo' the true power of asterisk?? Hopefully I'll have a couple of minutes to stand up and talk, and then the rest of the time will just be waiting for people to come and check them out, kind of like at a tech exhibition.... Any thoughts/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
