Hello everyone!
I have a co-worker who wants me to help him start up a side-business selling small offices in our area a very cheap, feature packed UC solution and charging them a little bit of money every month to support. I was thinking about using an open-source solution since they are free, and without licencing costs, otherwise I would be thinking about a Cisco UC500. Another reason not to go the UC500 route is because these are really small businesses, roughly 10 - 30 users apiece and the UC500 can scale up to a few hundred which is awesome from an IT standpoint but not very economical for an office that just wants it to plug into the corner and work with low complexity.
I was thinking
Asterisk or
Elastix which are both great products if you have ever played with them. My question for today is:
Which UC solution would you use, and what hardware? Would you suggest going analog or SIP? Thanks!
