I'll second that, CentOS 4.4 + FreePBX 2.1.3 + Asterisk 1.2.13 + Sangoma A200D + Aastra 9133i's running 4 months without a reboot and no memory leaks fielding about 150 calls a day. Everyone loves the system. These are normal users used to tradtitional phone systems.
I would not go as far as saying it's guaranteed solid as a rock until can get at least 1 year of uptime but it's pretty stable for sure! As far as the other GUI's. They all have their strengths. I would not rely on others opinions too much as everyones requirements and preferences seem to be a bit different. I would set up a test system and see if FreePBX works for you first. If not then you can start to explore some of the commecial alternatives. I would stay away from Trixbox. Besides, if you don't know enough Linux to set it all up yourself you should not be doing production installs IMHO. -----Original Message----- From: Mailing Lists [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 02, 2007 6:32 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Need comparison between PBXtra, Trixbox,Thirdlane, Druid, Aheeva etc. On Mar 2, 2007, at 9:14 PM, Zeeshan Zakaria wrote: > Hi, > > For a customer, I am looking for a good and reliable Asterisk based > system.

I started with Trixbox and used it for a few weeks before I simply downloaded and compiled my own. Honestly, it is not that hard. Just follow the instructions. I created a series of scripts to run against a fresh CentOS install which deal with compiling and installing everything, including the FreePBX dependencies. I'd be happy to share it. I don't do any video conferencing, and I don't patch Asterisk for faxing. FreePBX works quite well. Combined with all the features of modern SIP phones, there is nothing you can't do. I run my systems using the Intel 975XBX2 motherboard (975 chipset), which I assembled by buying components from New Egg. Very stable - no issues with CentOS. -Joe _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
