RE: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk as a phone survey system

Thu, 27 Apr 2006 08:16:11 -0700

 I write perl applications for a living and have developed code to
 talk to all kinds of hardware. What I'd like to do is pull a list of
 phone numbers from sql via dbi and call each. An initial voice
 messsage would be played asking the recipient if they'd
 optionally like to fill out our survey. If so I'd like to on the
 fly play pre-recorded questions and record the touch tone
 response back into the database. Teleyapper looks like it
 does some of what I want but I'm not sure slicing it up is
 better than starting from scratch. There appear to be a few
 CPAN modules to work with Asterisk. I'm looking for advice
 on how hard this is to implement with  Asterisk. TIA, TV JOE

Asterisk is simply a telephony toolkit, so the simple answer is yes, Asterisk can do this. Also, being a toolkit means there are a number of ways to accomplish it. You could right PERL, Python, TCL, C, PHP or numerous other types of scripts that can manage this for you. To see how to do some of the basic functions, you can look at some of the scripts at Nerd Vittles (http://nerdvittles.com). Things like the TeleYapper will give you a basis to work from.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk as a phone survey system


 Hi,

 I'm interested in developing an automated phone survey and am curious
 if Asterisk could be configured to run such a system.. My idea is to
 record a message and a series of sub-questions. The system would
 call each number on a list and play the message, Depending on the
 touch tone response another message would be played. Is it possible
 for asterisk to manage a survey like this? If so can the responses from
 the listeners be recorded. If someone else has done this I'd be interested
 in details.

 TIA , TV JOE
