  We are adding multi tenant capabilities to Asterisk PBX Manager http://www.thirdlane.com/opensource.htm#manager, and would really appreciate input from the list. Here are a few questions.

   

  1)       Would you find it useful to have multi tenant system with file based configuration (which is what PBX Manager is currently) or database /realtime configuration would always be required for your typical multi tenant setup?

   

  2)       Would you prefer the system where all the management be performed by one "super admin" or you would prefer that each tenant would have their own administrator with a separate login, etc. Would you prefer to have both, in which case which functions would you allow for the tenant administrator?

   

  3)       Assuming that the tenant has to be selected first, would you prefer the GUI display only the tenant's extensions, phones, maulboxes, etc, or all of these as well as a filed showing which tenant they belong to? Note that all the lists are displayed when selection arguments in scripts assigned to extensions or menu items, so showing everything may be too much.

   

  4)       Should outbound trunks be defined for each tenant or shared?

   

  5)       Would a simple convention of prepending tenant name to phones, voice menus, queues, voicemail contexts, etc work for you?

   

  6)       Would you prefer to share the music on hold (where various classes and playlists could be defined and assigned to any tenant) but not strictly separated by the GUI or have a strict separation (when each class can only be used by one tenant). 

   

  7)       What about sharing conference rooms?

   

   

  You can look at the demo of our current software at https://thirdlane.amer.net:10000/asterisk, Any other requests or suggestions, for the multi tenant and single tenant versions of software are welcome.

   

  Thanks,

   

  Alex
