Steve,Are you referring to the HUD GUI that you get with Fonality? If so, keep in mind that Trixbox includes the HUDLite server. You can download the HUDLite client and control your phones the same way you would with the other Fonality products.

Not only is it not free, it (GUI) is not located on your 
server.  Your * server connects to their server for the GUI 
interface.  You should contact one of their sales reps and have him 
show you the demo.  I actually liked the interface.  I think it is a 
little more user friendly than AAH/Trixbox (I haven't playes with 
HUDLite yet.)  But, that interface you see is on their system, not 
yours.  If Fonality were to go out of business, you would still have 
a working machine, but you would not have the GUI interface to change 
things.  Also, I'm pretty sure you have to buy your phones through 
them.  That could have changed, but that was one way they made their 
money.  Ultimately, I didn't like it because of the lack of control I 
would have.  But, it looks like a good product but probably not 
suitable for the more technically sophisticated people on this list.


This is all based on information from several (8) months 
ago.  Things could have changed.

Actually, no. I am referring to the
Fonality PBXtra vs TrixBox user interfaces.





Thanks,

mind that Trixbox includes the HUDLite server. You can download the HUDLite

No it does not and since you brought up the subjectWe NEVER so far have
refused a customers request... EVER...

Customer can choose to wait for regular queue development cycle or escalate
it by purchasing the appropriate development.
Either way will WILL implement it.
