[Asterisk-biz] Astersik support / consulting in Australia

[Scott Stingel]

Hi Adam-
 
Implementing and maintaining an IVR in asterisk is normally a simple
undertaking, and can usually be accomplished by people with only a bit of
telephony and software background (some Linux exposure is helpful).  If the
task at hand is more complex, or if you just want to get things going
quickly and avoid the pitfalls, you could consider hiring a consultant for a
small number of hours to write and test your first application, and use that
as a model for future development.  This can be done remotely if desired.

My company does this kind of thing, and has lots of experience in
programming IVR (see web site), epecially where there is a high-performance
requirement, or where special "glue" logic is required to connect to other
software systems.  please contact me off-list if you need more info.

Having said that, I'm sure people on here (including me) would be happy to
help out with specific questions.
 
Also suggest that you look over the Wiki:

Hi All,
 
My company is interested in setting up an IVR system here in Australia.
While we make extensive use of open source systems in our core business, we
don't have the time or expertise on staff to run up the Asterisk system. 
 
We are considering one of the following two approaches:
1.	employ someone who has the skills to set up and maintain an Asterisk
based IVR system - what skills are needed? Where could we look for such
people? 

2.	engage an Asterisk consultant to set up the system and provide some
training - are there consultants operating in Australia? Can this sort of
thing be done remotely? What kind of expense is involved in setting up the
hardware / software? 
 
Thanks in advance for any advice.
 
Cheers,
 
Adam
