[asterisk-users] How different is implementing Cisco based system than Asterisk based system?

[Zeeshan Zakaria]

I'll keep this all in mind. I don't plan to become a Cisco expert over
night. Flirts I'll try to make them use Asterisk. I don't know the details
yet. But some of these big organizations don't even want to consider
anything other than the proprietary systems.

sometimes. Cisco supports "SIP", but depending on the product,
asterisk inter-networking with call transfers / dials / etc. can be,
ummm, interesting, and you have to do Transfer() rather than Dial() if
you want subsequent transfers / conferencing, etc. to work within
Cisco. Basically, call setup / control and RTP aren't necessarily on
the same device(s) which is the opposite of my asterisk experience.

sometimes. Again, the size of the deployment is relevant here.

Again, at some point you'll need to call a reseller. In the meantime,
if you want to keep them honest, you should get your hands on paper or
digital copies of the Cisco press books about their phone system
products. Can't recommend anything specific without knowing things
about size and purpose of the install.
