[asterisk-biz] Impressive Asterisk Customer Demos

[Alistair Cunningham]

Dinesh,

We've had lots of positive feedback for the ITSP in a box system, and we 
have a working demo of the web interface online at:

http://itsp.demo.integrics.com/?username=guest;password=guest

We've recently updated it with improved hunt groups, phase 1 of calling 
cards (more calling card features to follow), time of day and date call 
routing, voicemail greeting upload and downloads, and much more.

Coming soon are postpaid enhancements including invoicing, web calling, 
and much more.
