[asterisk-biz] Which businesses need PBX the most

[AmberVoIP]

asterisk is powerful PBX, which is good for any business. 
it can replace traditional PBX, some examples:

1-4 analog or ISDN BRI lines for small office, 15 seats - each can be
connected over 1-FXS board and traditional phone, 2- SIP/IAX2 phone
(cheaper way USB phone, if have computers), 3- WiFi phones. cost is
same as primitive and ancient analog pbx, but you have all features of
high-level system

T1/E1 board(s) and big office, here an be used old pbx hardware, to
connect all 200-300 seatc to common system. can be used also FXS
boards, FXS sip gateways (16-24 ports), also per-seat solutions, as
above

Distibuted office - while you have numbers in vary cites and countries
and have only one office, or otherwise, you have many branches, but
distribute your phone line (800) over all them. For example, someone
calling to 800, you see his area code and connecting to office near him
or in his city.

Additional advantages. Employee can take sip phone with him to
home/travel abroad and be connected. New Nokias, such as E60 is very
good for it, since can do VoIP over WiFi and 3G.

Of course can add much  more things, like auto-attnadants with
information providing by ivr menu at non-business time, trouble-ticket
systems, cuttency rates/stock quotes over phone etc.

In general - everything is possible by using asterisk, any idea,
related to voice call flow is possible.
