What is an Asterisk PBX?
Asterisk is an open source PBX software that has revolutionized the telecom industry. Traditional PBX companies have proprietary software and hardware and charge special licensing fees to use their products. Asterisk is free and has been being used by millions of businesses as an alternative to more traditional PBX companies. This new open source IP-PBX software is allowing competition, where now companies can offer lower cost systems with more features without the license fees that have been part of traditional PBX companies.
