[Freeswitch-users] Grandstream GXP 2000

[Faraz R. Khan]

Only if you want them to hate you :)

My experience has been that you can give GS to people who need the 
functionality but hardly use their phones- like executives. 
Operators/call centre agents/support people etc you might wanna hand a 
MUCH better phone. Polycom/Aastra are excellent choices. I've also had 
much success using Cisco 7911G Global Spares with SIP firmware.

The Linksys SPA922/942 are also amazing phones. All these phones are 
about the same price as the GXP-2000.

Its sad because the customer will blame Asterisk/Freeswitch for the 
phone hanging, distorted voice, random hangups, one way sound, etc when 
its ALL GS fault.

The GXP-2020 is FAR worse. So is the GXV-3000.

Budgetones are fine technically but pathetic to use.
