Likelihood to Recommend The solution has almost everything I need to do my job, which is to keep in touch with my customers by phone calls and meetings. On the go, the softphone has room to improve user experience (Cisco Jabber), and as far as I know, Webex App should fill the gaps left by Jabber, but it depends to upgrade the system to the last version and that costs. Besides that, the solution is rock solid! Good audio quality in voice and video, integration with MSFT Teams and so reliable.
Read full review Digium Asterisk is well suited for a city government as a communications solution for internal and external use. Other options like PBX are more expensive and hard to escalate. VoIP makes it easier to use the communications infrastructure instead that already exists rather than having to wire every phone when the solution is a digital or analog phone. In my city, government offices are not in the same place, which makes it harder to communicate everything together.
Read full review Pros Local routing on remote branches Telephony features flexibility Different endpoint alternatives for all use cases Real integration with other systems or platforms Read full review Easy communication and configuration with many soft phone and hard phone models A great community that helps the software have more and more functionality Read full review Cons The setup flow was limited, unclear, and was not working for a while, IT didn't manage to fix it. The UI looks terribly old, not even a little bit looking like a hardphone. More options during a call. Read full review I have had trouble having my favorites list from Digium connect to my phone and save my preferences there. I have only managed to do this once, but now we have an added person in our Dept. I can add them on Digium, but my phone does not update. Read full review Usability All main features is very easy to access and use, only pressing a button or two (when you need to page up or page down the features set!) in the desk phone or a click of the mouse to place a call, start a chat, video call or a meeting. Very straight forward.
Read full review Support Rating Cisco offers online instruction on the use of the VoIP but it has to be sought out. Likely, the do offer additional support but this is managed by our IT department so it is difficult to determine just how accessible Cisco has been regarding the implementation and ongoing support for this product.
Read full review I have asked in the not so recent past about having my phone updated with my saved Digium "favorites" list but it doesn't seem that this is possible
Read full review Alternatives Considered As we all know,Cisco is one of the best and trusted companies when it comes to networking,most of our materials were all Cisco,Cisco routers,Cisco IP phones..etc They're more handy and easy to use and don't require an IT experience,I used an IP phone to receive a call,and it was very easy to use and the sound was clear,here it comes the good configuration of a Cisco Voip PBx

Vonage Business, and while it is far more expensive and a lot less configurable than Digium, the mobility is essential for my new role. Digium is ideal for a business with both a very technical staff and a user base that is not remote. Digium was selected due to price and ability to create custom applications.
