Hi all, I'm new to VoIP, now we have a project that needs a PBX with client APPs. In our team we have argument for choosing PBX. By so far, we have following candidates: A: Open source 1) Asterisk PBX (http://www.asterisk.org) (with longest history that almost every one knows it, now the last version using the PJSIP stack) 2) FreeSwitch (http://www.freeswitch.org) (A lot people recommended it to us) B: Commercial 1) Vodia PBX (http://www.vodia.com). It comes from SNOM, but acquired by a HongKong company now 2) PortSIP PBX (http://www.portsip.com/portsip-pbx). It also includes VoIP SDK, WebRTC and offer rebranding app for free. My boss prefers the Open Source PBX since they are free, but our CTO prefers the commercial editions, according to whom the business PBX has better support, and the performance is good, and easy to use - considering our team all are new to VoIP/PBX. We have did some searching of Asterisk, here are my questions: 1. Does the last Asterisk using PJSIP stack ? 2. Does there has the comparison of PJSIP and reSIProcate, sofia(using by FreeSwicth) ? 3. Is it easy to compile and setup Asterisk? 4. Which Asterisk version is recommended? And does Asterisk support Windows ? Thanks in advance . Best regards,

Even if asterisk is supported on windows, you don't want to do that. Not for production, anyway. I used asterisk since its very beginning, but I switched to freeswitch because i think it has better performance, great support and you can do basically anything you can think of with it. Even if its learning curve is a little steep. Good luck!

Thanks for your stuff David, yes, as my previous email said, a lot of peoples recommended the FS to us. But seems the stack sofia is no longer maintained by NOKIA, this is what we worried. How do you think the commercial PBX ? We have tried Vodia PBX <http://www.vodia.com>, PortSIP PBX <https://www.portsip.com/portsip-pbx> and 3CX <http://www.3cx.com>, currently we are prefer the PortSIP since they are offer us the free rebrand app, but the Vodia also a good choice....

Disclaimer: I work for a company that sells commercial Asterisk-based PBX-es. I'll just note that there are companies and companies that give you Asterisk as a commercial and supported product. The tradeoff here is that you are then (depending on the terms of the support contract) less free to tweak the system. From your description this seems like an important feature. (I am not familiar enough with FreeSwitch or any other software and can't comment on them) > > We have did some searching of Asterisk, here are my questions: > > 1. Does the last Asterisk using PJSIP stack ? Asterisk uses PJSIP as of version 12. It was added alongside the internal Asterisk SIP "stack" (chan_sip.c: a file that exceeds 1MB and people don't enjoy changing). In Asterisk 13 it became the default. > 2. Does there has the comparison of PJSIP and reSIProcate, sofia(using by > FreeSwicth) ? I believe that sofia's independent development is rather lacking at the moemnt. At the time the FreeSwitch developers chose it it was the best choise. But when it was time for the Asterisk developers to replace chan_sip with a saner SIP stack they preffered reSIProcate (even though it was C++ and not C as Asterisk it) and PJSIP (even though it required patching it to allow dynamic linking) over sofia. Because at least at the time the sofia stack was lacking development. See https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/SIP+Stack+Research > 3. Is it easy to compile and setup Asterisk? Yes, basically. But what do you want to do with it? Asterisk (and also FreeSwitch, as I understand it) is not a PBX. It is a toolkit with which you can build a PBX. For instance, FreePBX is a PBX based on Asterisk. But do you really need a PBX? Or do you need a more generic telephony server? > 4. Which Asterisk version is recommended? That depends on the timing of your product. In Asterisk odd versions are LTS (maintained and supported for a longer time frame). The current LTS is 13 but 14 has also been released. Specifically PJSIP is one of the features that has been maturing. If you want a PBX right now, go for 13. If you aim for a product to be released a year from now, use current git master and wait for it to become 15. > And does Asterisk support Windows ?

Hi all, Finally we make decision that go with PortSIP PBX, the reasons are below: 1. Support the easy cluster deployment for handle large concurrent calls and provide 2. All REST API(this is very important to us for integrate the PBX with our current system), and also offer the rebrand app for free. 3. The multi-tenant feature, since we will deploy our project on cloud for offers the service to customers. Thanks all for your suggestions, we have learned a lot of !
