If Elastix is so good, how come their website sucks?
-
@JaredBusch Ah I see. Yeah, not sure what's going on there, but the .org is the legit site. lol
-
According to WHOIS .com was created 4.29.02 by [email protected] and the .org was created 3.03.06 by [email protected]. They would have been better off forwarding the .com to .org. Plus the Google could penalize them for duplicate content (design doesn't count).
-
@technobabble The .com site is for their new paid services.
-
Maybe their paid services aren't very good.

Ah ha...there is some madness behind it all. Perhaps they will catch wind on this thread and add the link from the .com site to the .org site making everyone happy!

As they don't speak English, it is unlikely.
NTG does so much Elastix work, maybe we should host a US site.

@scottalanmiller is 2.4 updatable to Asterisk 11 and FreePBX 2.11? That is basically what I want out of 2.5 I'll install 2.4 if I can do that. Otherwise I will use PBX in a Flash at this client.
-
@FiyaFly can verify the FreePBX version. But I know that we've had Asterisk 11 on E2.4.

From what I can tell, Elastix 2.4 runs FreePBX 2.8.1r17 at the latest updates.

@scottalanmiller @FiyaFly was that done manually? I was under the impression that the built in update did not take it to Asterisk 11. I can drop to console and do yum updates, but that defeats the purpose of using the Elastix package.
-
We do no manual updates. Everything is from the supported package repo.

I remember seeing some discussion in the Spiceworks community about someone wanting to manually update the FreePBX version to a latter version to use the endpoint manager functionality. I've not done as I didn't want to break Elastix by doing that. If you want FreePBX 2.11 features like the parking pro and endpoint manager, I'd just roll with it as a distro to start.

Every time I throw Elastix on a box the first thing I do is run yum updates. I think, out of the box, Elastix runs Asterisk a few versions back, but a yum update brings it to 11.7

Yes. It needs patched to get all of the updates. It is a mature release at this point.
