I think this is pretty standard in the pbx business. The manufacturers don't give out the complete documentation for the system, so it is useless without paying money to your local dealer. Your local dealer doesn't want to help you with a used system, he'd prefer to sell you a brand new one. Source: I work for a dealer.
- closeparen 10y agoI worked for a dealer. The configuration utility for Cisco PBXes (piece of crap, by the way) can only be downloaded by certified Cisco partners. Or BitTorrent.
- voltagex_ 10y agoHell, even the firmware + config can only be downloaded that way. This means if you got used phones that were configured for the proprietary SCCP, you wouldn't be able to reconfigure them as SIP phones without paying the big bucks. Yes, I know about Asterisk's chan_sccp.
