The main scope of any organisation choosing to migrate from their
existing system to a full Asterisk solution rests within the comfort
and reassurance of obtaining full reliable coverage throughout its
site. This would ensure an excellent Return on Investment when
considering the following short and long term benefits:
⇒ Excellent system integrity
⇒ System architecture scalability
⇒ Extensive features and call-centre functionalities
⇒ Future-proof technology with reduced upgrades and no
licensing costs
Further scope can be found within the advantages of streamlining
an existing phone system into a single IP-based reliable and cost-
effective telephony solution, which would offer extensive scalability
and could be further expanded to unlimited coverage.
