Re: [General] Trixbox phoning home controversy. said by tommy13v:how is PBXiaf going for you? Amazingly well actually. The install is simple and produces a very stable system. Config Edit is rolled into freePBX and endpoint management is there (one feature trixbox did well and I don't think I can live without). There are the 'kitchen sink' aspects of trixbox that PBXiaf can't match. But perhaps due to the overall simplicity of the install, they have been able to steadily crank out script based features. Overall I'm happy and would recommend it to almost anyone.
Ward's the one who got me into asterisk, and he always seems to have the right combination of technical knowledge, careful motivation, and communication skills to put people on the path to successful asterisk based systems. |

Trixbox does offer HUDlite, trixnet (a kind of trixbox enum service), and literally hundreds of extra packages that a very small minority would find useful. On the other side, PBXiaf offers a small but growing number of their own add-ons as well, that in general have a broader appeal. |

While PBXiaf does offer endpoint management, it is not gui based like trixbox, and requires hand editing config files. Gui based endpoint management is on the freePBX roadmap for version 3, but that release is a long way off.... |
