Re: Anybody heard of these guys?
The 3cx system has a link to voip to phone line products on their web pages. THey will even let you on their forums for tfree community support in getting it running. It was recommended to me as a nice way to test PBX/OCS2007 integration testing in my home lab as well and it was nice for that. It's a pretty nice looking little product in that it also runs on Windows and I don't need to go pay attention to a linux box. Just normal Windows stuff. I seriously considered getting one of those hardware boxes and just running it as my main home setup for fun. :) Been a while since I fired up my test environment though.

OT: RE: Anybody heard of these guys?
I put a Switchvox (Digium branded Asterisk solution with a good http interface) system in one of our small offices (7 person) this past July. Had a few issues with it at first where the FXS/FXO ports were acting funny, but Digium got everything smoothed out. Been working great since. We’re running VOIP trunking to the box for most of the calls and VOIP faxing, and have a couple POTS lines on it for backup. If anyone wants to talk specifics, feel free to email me off-list. -JP -Original Message- From: Dennis Melahn [mailto:den...@advancedav.com] Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2010 9:20 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Anybody heard of these guys?

RE: [MARKETING] RE: Anybody heard of these guys?
We are currently PBX shopping... The ShoreTel story looks pretty great (lots of features for a great price), unless you need a complex IVR/CallCenter functionality. Unfortunately, we have a call center and complex IVR requirements so will spend a bit more. Asterisk can do "anything" and like most Linuxy things, is limited in practice by the skill of the admin and the labor budget. ~JasonG > -Original Message- > From: Dennis Melahn [mailto:den...@advancedav.com] > Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2010 09:20 > To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues > Subject: [MARKETING] RE: Anybody heard of these guys? > > I'm currently shopping for an IP solution.
