Well, made the trek to the Tadiran HQ on Fri. EXTREMELY impressive system. 1000 hour VM with Ucmc, flexicall, VERY nice Flex Phones (getting some 120S and 280S phones). Very nice wireless solution.
I can not believe I am going to be able to get the IPX 500 system for the SAME price as an NEC IPK. (under 50K).
The vendor who brought me has been a Tadiran dealer for 10 years and was one of the 1st in my area. They seemed to know him well when I went up there, so looking good so far :-)
BTW, they are now shipping the IPX 500 with 2- 14 port Conference bridges standard.
Flexcall is a standard feature, but IRSS is extra.
They tell me fax capbility should be available in 4 months or so (already have the faxboard included in my quote).
Also learned the Sprint OEM deal will be over soon and they will probably be selling it as Tadiran straight up.
VERY impressed. Coolest thing is all of the processing power for features is on the add in cards, no upgrading porcessors, etc, all Horsepower is run off the add in cards themselves.
VERY nice!

Agree with all your comments. Outstanding system! The only problem as I see it, is marketing. How do you sell a system of this size when the decision maker has never heard of Tadiran? Cisco is over marketed & Tadiran is undermarketed.

Easy, get a list of the systems in use by the US government. Quite an impressive list. Next, buy a demo system trick it out and demo it when you go to sell. I have never lost to a Cisco system if I am able to get in and demo. Go with your strengths, show then those nice looking and easy to use phones. Tadiran is a big name however, just not as much as they are overseas. In military they are huge.

The Tadiran rep specifically said they are now shipping with 2 14 port bridges.
Even the vendor who brought me was surprised to hear that.
Coral Tech, any idea what the others uses for the 72 DSP's are that they are planning?

They can be opened up for Conference Bridges, caller id to analog ports, DTR ports for flexicall, dtd ports for dial tone detection for centrex apps.

I can confirm the 2-14 party bridges as my system went in this week. Very nice so far. Still working out some of the little issues, but very nice so far. We are using A LOT of the features. My 80 or so users are loving it so far this week.
