Dear all,<div><br></div><div>I am working to develop an IVR solution for an NGO in Tamil Nadu, India using Freeswitch open source telephony interface. </div><div><br></div><div>I am looking for any cost effective solution for hardware where concurrent inbound/outbound calls can be made by the IVR system. Some research, I did but I am skeptical, need some more guidance from experts. Number of concurrent calls for initial stage inbound 5-10 but based on response from the community, we will plan for scaling up. Outbound Scheduled calls are of lesser importance right now.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I checked online that PRI line provides me 30 lines for voice which can be used concurrently. But, the rent for the line is very high which cant be feasible for the NGO. </div><div>Min PRI line cost is Rs 4.5 K per month.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Please suggest alternative solutions which I can use for the same. </div><div><br></div><div>1. What about VOIP and using their local access number?</div><div>2. What about SIP based IP phone with extensions?</div>
<div>3. What about trunk lines, DID etc?</div><div>4. What about GSM Modems, GSMOpen?</div><div><br></div><div>I am very new telecom technology. Please help.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div>Ankit</div><div><br>-- <br>
Life is like a rose its upto u feel it as its fragrance or thorns<br>
