 Asterisk VOIP has features that let your business run more effectively and with fewer hassles. And it does all of this for a fraction of the cost of traditional proprietary PBXs.
Asterisk gives you real-time connectivity on both PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) and VoIP networks. Asterisk is much more than a standard PBX.
With Asterisk in your network, you can do telephony in new and more efficient ways, for example:
- You can connect employees working from home to the office PBX over broadband connections. This enables remote users to have calls directly transferred to them as if they were working from their office.
- Connecting offices in various states over VoIP, Internet or a private IP network.
- Giving all employees voicemail, integrated with the Web and their e-mail. This allows users to retrieve their voicemail messages from a web interface or have them directly delivered to their e-mail.
- Building interactive voice applications, that connect to your ordering system or other in-house applications.
- Give access to the company PBX for business travelers, directly from laptop computers using a soft phone application. These can then connect from airport or hotel wireless hotspots.
- Free calls between interstate and International offices.
- ...and much more
Asterisk includes many features only found in top-of-the-line unified messaging systems, such as:
- The ability to interface with normal telephone lines, and VoIP connections
- Music-on-hold for customers waiting in queues, supporting streamed media as well as MP3 music
- Call queues where call agents jointly handle answering incoming calls while monitoring the queue
- Text-to-speech system integration
- Call data record (CDR) generation for integration with billing systems
- Asterisk offers all of the features that you need from your PBX. You will save copious amounts of money by simply eliminating the need to purchase expensive hardware upgrades for your proprietary key telephone system every time you want to upgrade it.
- There will be no need to purchase additional line cards each time you want to add more handsets. Simply purchase a new handset and plug it into your existing network.
