I know a company that sells a non Asterisk, Hosted SIP solution. Their sales
pitch is
"Do you really want open source?? So some terrorist can enter your system
thru a backdoor and
take over your pbx??"
Sounds funny, but some people buy it.
Thats why I think it would be beneficial for all of us, if we could put
together a list
of major asterisk based installations. Whenever a potential customer repeats
some of the competitions scare tactics
just refer him to that list :-)
