[asterisk-users] Any Suggestions for Election Polling Application?

2006-09-29 Thread Gerald Drouillard
Looking to set up an outbound only Asterisk installation for 5 to 10 
attendants that will cold calling phone numbers in a database.  The 
customer would like the server to call the numbers as needed and 
transfer the call to an open attendant if a voice response is detected.


The customer called this call banking but it does not seem to 
translate directly into what Asterisk calls it?


Would Asterisk be able to do this?

Anybody have good experiences with softphone software?

Would Asterisk able to tranfer the person's name/phone number back to 
the softphone once the connection is made?


Any suggestions for SIP phones?

Any trouble with using ITSP like Vonage if the user has a good internet 
connection?

Hi Gerald,
What about initiating the calls inbound via the web? Check out
www.cognation.net/Mexuar 

We have also implemented a proof of concept using email to deliver the
same campaign mechanics as well.
