We use primarily use Aastra in our network. We have about 150 480i's deployed and 20-30 5(3,5,7,7i's) series deployed. Definitely different than the Snom in their general feel and overall usability but that is all relative to the user. Aastra's definitely have their issues. I find that reboots are often required to get them right. Plus the firmware fixes are slow coming from the Manufacture for the mean time to resolve/repair reported issues. On the upside I find them very easy to manage (although http provision puts snom and aastra on an equal playing field) and when we conducted our initial customer feedback surveys the Aastra's had a higher rating than the Snoms. Now if we could just get either to do BLA that would be the golden ticket in my mind lol :) "Brian West" <brian@freeswitch.org> wrote in message news:<95680F14-7FB9-4F44-A87C-8E04BA389C61@freeswitch.org>...
They seem a little cheap feeling to me... I have a 55i on my desk but
I'm not too fond of it yet. /b

If you like SNOM, try the Aastra 5i series. Really cool.
