This is untrue. Digium has not paid/bribed/compensated anyone for testimonials or case studies, and I am disappointed that this misinformation went unchallenged for so long. I'm uncertain where the disconnect is in this comment but it is certainly not valid, and I hope we can discuss privately how this misconception arose.
We have an enthusiastic and unpaid list of Asterisk users for both the Open Source versions as well as for Digium cards/modules/packaged solutions who have volunteered for testimonials and case studies which we publish both for the advancement of Open Source Asterisk and also for Digium's products, depending on what the customer is using. We have not and do not offer compensation for those users or customers in exchange for their words about Asterisk or Digium's offerings, though perhaps I will buy them a beer at Astricon. (Sorry that I took so long to publish a reply, but I missed this message due to a hectic conference schedule and am slowly catching up.)
