It could just be a flat out paid support issue. When you buy a product from switchvox / metaswitch / genband there is inherited (paid) support, that can work through issues. Where as asterisk as an open source vehicle does not come with that. Yes there are plenty of people can can support the open source version, but your typical office admin is not going to be able to do so. Just my 2 cents.
