New Elastix Beta Version 2 released today (0.9 Beta 2)

If you did not know, Elastix is an appliance software that integrates the best OSS tools available for Asterisk-based PBXs into a single package. It also has its own set of utilities. If you are a developer, you can easily add your own modules.
I have not tested it yet but I soon will. The system seems to be a very well thought out product and one might have a OSS product that is truly a tool for Unified Communications.
Some of the features provided natively by Elastix are:

  • VIDEO support. You can use videophones with Elastix!
  • Virtualization support. You can run multiple Elastix virtual machines on the same box.
  • Really friendly Web user interface
  • "Fax to email" for incoming faxes. Also, you can send any digital document to a fax number through a virtual printer.
  • Billing interface
  • Module for automatic outgoing campaigns
  • Graphical configuration of network parameters
  • Resource usage reporting
  • Remote restart/shutdown options
  • Incoming/outgoing calls and channel usage reports
  • Integrated voicemail module
  • Voicemail Web interface
  • Integrated operator panel module
  • Extra SugarCRM and Calling Card modules included
  • Download section with commonly used accesories
  • Embedded help interface
  • Instant messaging server (Openfire) integrated
  • Multi-lingual support.
  • Mail server integrated including multi-domain support
  • Web based email interface
You will find all the information and the new beta downloads at Elastix site.
