[Asterisk-biz] Replacing Mitel SX-200 Digital Hybrid with Asterisk

[Tom Rymes]

I'm sure that you could use a Snom or Cisco set with a sidecar on it.  
However, most people seem to say that the biggest problem with hotels  
is the interface to their billing software, which is difficult at  
best to make fly with asterisk at this point.

Does the customer know that it will not be a simple "hook the cable  
up to the billing server and go" setup with asterisk?
