Guys, you are a bunch of cut-ups.....when are you going to take this show on the road?

:rofl:

Irvine? HMMMMMMM.....Toshiba USA right in your back yard.

All are good equipment manufacturers, all (as well as many other systems) can do what you want, and, all being equal, it still comes down to the installation company you decide on. Don't just check references, go the the jobsites and play with the system that is being used and equipped as yours will be.

Good Luck.

You guys ought to be ashamed of yourselves. Ya'll are like wolves on a chicken in the barnyard. The member apparently has narrowed down their future purchase already plus there is the sales weasel pushing the PRI into the mix. The last thing this member needs is more systems to consider. It is obvious by the 3 systems listed that their brain has already been scrambled.

I could have easily said that an ESI system was a far better choice than the best of those 3 but I didn't.

I could have easily said that an ESI was going to be more cost effective than the lowest of those 3 but I didn't.

I could have ask if those 3 systems included integrated Voicemail (like ESI does) but I didn't.

I wanted to address the possibilities of DID without purchasing it from the service provider (easy to do on an ESI) but I didn't.

I wanted to bring up the costs of future service and remote maintenance which ESI has those 3 beat hands down but I didn't.

If this member returns to us for our professional opinions on those 3 systems I believe we should take the high road and help them with what they have chosen even though we all know the systems we represent are a better choice by far.

Notice how I left out the shameless plug for the top notch ESI System from an ESI dealer on the other end of the country that has no financial interest in the future purchase this member will soon be making.

Why a PRI for such a small office?

We want direct dial, haven't heard about a siginificantly cheaper option and aren't interested in VOIP.

I haven't said anything here but I agree with Paul. Sounds like you have been handed a bill of goods as far as DID and PRI too. 10 extensions? I have more than that and 5 lines in my house.

Any small system with an auto attendent will work fine for you. I'm partial to the Avaya Partner and it's got to be much cheaper that what these guys propose.

You can still get analog DID's can't you? Depending on how many you need a PRI may be more cost effective.
