Smartswitch: AdvantagesBefore choosing particular product, customer performs analysis of offerings that are present on the market. We will present information that possibly will help you to make your decision on our product. For this we will present conceptual advantages (not accenting your attention on technical details) of our product compared with other similar products in the market of solutions for small and medium telecommunication companies.
Analysis of the market of available solutions should show you that almost 100% of similar products are significantly more expensive. This could be explained by the fact that vendors develop and support their telephony core by themselves, which requires significant financial expenses. Our product is based on open-source Asterisk core, which enables us to minimize expenses for its development and support, and accordingly, to minimize price for our customer.
Small price will mean for you faster return on investments and less expensive business startup. You could save your funds and spend them on acceleration of your business.
Our product is based on open-source multi-functional Asterisk core, which gives us intellectual feature set and potential which exceed the ones of similar products. The latter often appeared earlier and simply were not expected to be used in modern conditions and demands, therefore many of our core features are implemented as helper modules or not implemented at all.
Our product is based in open-source Asterisk core, which is tested and used by thousands of users everyday all over the world and in various conditions and combinations with other software and hardware. Compatibility issues are fixed very quickly. This caused Asterisk to be almost 100% compatible on the contrast with similar products (especially not much spread). Companies simple don't have possibility to test their products in combination with great amount of third-party software and hardware because no one reports compatibility issues.
Our product is based on open-source Asterisk core, which has thousands of distributors all over the world and dedicated developers team. New features appear very quickly unlike similar products which are limited only by their own developers team.
Analysis of the market revealed that our offering costs less that similar products in this segment too.
This means we can handle absolutely any problem that you might have. While evaluating products of other vendors make sure they have similar level of engineering staff and the level of performed work. Some vendors simply develop billing and/or graphical interface for Asterisk. And they have no experience of solving complex telecommunication problems, and you might be left alone in case if they appear.
We apply lots of patches on regular Asterisk release version. These patches aim on increasing quality and stability of work in production. Release version of Asterisk from Digium passes additional processing and gets a set of fixes and improvements. Some of them are taken by Digium team into Asterisk mainline.
This means that our product is more stable than original Asterisk "out of the box". This makes us different from other vendors, which use "pure" Asterisk.
We have Media Proxy, which doesn't have analog in the products of our competitors. This gives our product new modes of handling audio, video and faxes and enhanced performance and quality when comparing with "pure" Asterisk.
There is no doubts that Asterisk is the most widely used telephony software all over the world. Therefore there is a very little chance that partner's or your equipment will be incompatible with the product based on Asterisk. This probability is much less compared with products based on other open-source software.
Asterisk is tested not only by developers but also by thousands of users all over the world. Not every similar product can sound off such testing volume. As a result, basing on Asterisk, we inherit all the best that is in it.
