Little or no complaints means everything is working. Are your extensions IAX softphones or do you "use IAX" for PSTN connectivity? What "network problems" are we talking about? How about taking initiative and creating a user survey and sending it to everyone? You can see IAX stats on the CLI, have you looked at any of that? Have you run with IAX debugging turned on?

Sounds like you are trying to build a solid house in the swamp. Get the foundation good and proper and take it from there.

Frequently there are people who don't complain, so we don't realize
that their call quality is sub-par.

We are using iax.

It seems like there should be a record somewhere if a call was
terminated abnormally.

If you have network traffic problems, address those first and then wait
to hear of more dropped calls.

Depending on your setup, you could use the monitor  app  to determine
whether a call was actually dropped or a hangup by the context of the
conversation.  In a call center environment, "dropped calls" are quite
frequently people hanging up for whatever reason and you can actually
hear the handset go into the cradle (sometimes slam lol.)

If it is happening alot and you have a pri, you can watch your pri debug
span info and see if you are having errors or "normal clearings"

If you are using IAX, maybe the jitterbuffer stats might indicate something.
