Yes it works great in business applications.

Yes it does have limitations, which you can get by with some use of there 
custom.conf files.  Documentation for asterisk and freepbx is done via the 
users and there is not much on it. But it's getting better.  You can see lot 
of info for it on http://aussievoip.com.au/wiki/ . Also there is a new 
update that you can route on the Zap channel number now.

If your able to work with asterisk without a GUI it's better due to you can 
do more. But remember Freepbx has asterisk as it's main part and it works 
just the same.  It's easyer for many to use it but again this comes with 
some short commings.  But all around for the price is the best GUI out 
there.
