[asterisk-users] Running Multiple Instances of Asterisk

[C F]

I don't see a problem here. Using includes you dedicate every company
their own directory of configs. Macros are eithere system wide, or
each comapny can create their own. I don't see why this is any harder
than mutilple instances of asterisk.

Sure, you can split things into contexts, but just try and imagine how complex the management is going to become when several companies comprise the same file space.
