When I look down the list of phone systems on this site, it looks very established manufactures like Avaya Nortel etc, If you install a new voip system like Allworx or say a Hosted IP system, you have to make your post in "other systems"
What does it take to establish new "room's" on this site for up & coming new phone systems?

We do have a VOIP category. In general, our support forum really is for tried and true products. As new ones come along, they may be added. The general consensus here is that there aren't any IP-only systems that have reached that point.

A poll was just conducted to see what brands that the members were servicing. The results of that poll showed that anything excluding CISCO with more then 10% of the members servicing it is represented. Until a product becomes popular enough to the section active it should stay in the Other Systems area.
Results of the poll below
What products do you service ?
Asterisk - Trixbox etc. 4% (4)
Atlas 4% (4)
Avaya - Lucent 62% (58)
Cisco 14% (13)
Comdial 39% (37)
ESI 19% (18)
Executone - Isoetec 12% (11)
Inter-Tel 21% (20)
Iwatsu 10% (9)
Mitel 27% (25)
NEC 38% (36)
Nitsuko - Tie 14% (13)
Nortel 56% (53)
Panasonic 48% (45)
Samsung 26% (24)
Shoretel 3% (3)
Sprint - Tadiran 5% (5)
Telrad 4% (4)
Toshiba 40% (38)
TransTel 3% (3)
Vodavi 31% (29)

Looks like even the old 1A2 beat out Allworx and Asterisk by a wide margin. That tell you anything?

It says that Asterisk has 25% of the number of installers as something that has been in use for 30 years. There's two ways to read it.

Actually 1A2 has been in use for closer to 60 years, if you include 1A1 and accept that there are STILL 1A2 systems operating out there! And there are only 17 of us still servicing 1A2 because there aren't that many folks that have a clue how to service them, but they sure can sell 'bells and whistles'!  John C. (Not Garand)

We had a poll?
Asterisk has enough community resources out there. it doesn't really need it's own forum if you spend a few minutes in google looking for your answers.

This may be a little off topic, but I was wondering how many are out there actually steering their cutomers towards hosted ip solutions?
All I've heard are horror stories. Anyone have something nice to say about this?
