[asterisk-users] Newbie´s question about Asterisk...

[Terry Brummell]

Dean's link has references to Trixbox.  TB has a bad, bad, very bad reputation for being very insecure.  Alternatives to TB are FreePBX & PBX in a Flash.  All are Asterisk based and very easy to set up.

If you already have experience with linux asterisk will be easy for you.

 

Other people will reply with official links but here is how I use Asterisk in my small home office www.cognation.net/asterisk 

 

 

Cheers,

Dean

Hi, My name is Francisco from México. 

Here, in my work we have a very very old panasonic PBX(12 years old). We are growing and we need to increase our external lines(from 3 to 4) and our internal lines(from 6 to 10). Besides we need voice mail and voice menu too. 

We asked for a quote to our panasonic dealer. The whole thing cost about 4,500 dollars. 

My boss just saw a thing called Asterisk this morning looking for options in Google. He asked my to investigate what this thing called Asterisk is and if we could save some money using it instead of the panasonic solution. So, here I am. 

I have some experience as linux sysadmin(we have 1 oracle linux server and 1 linux print server) nevertheless I don´t have any idea where and how to start this evaluation?


Please
Would you give us a clue where to see If Asterisk could work for us?

Thanks for your kind help.
