Switchvox SOHO Overview
Switchvox SOHO Overview
Switchvox SOHO is Digium’s switchvox software offering for small or home offices, though many business including larger organizations can still benefit from the great features that SOHO offers. There are two other Switchvox offerings; including free and SMB which I will describe in later blogs. The SOHO version has a smaller feature set and was designed for small offices that require a professional phone system at a lower price point, or lower call volume than the SMB.
SOHO Hardware
Switchvox SOHO was designed to be implemented on the Switchvox AA60 PBX appliance which supports up to 10 concurrent calls . Typically an office of this size has less than 30 users, and might not have a server room with a rack to host a larger machine; the AA60 takes care of that by coming with wall mount brackets, and is small enough to fit into a smaller desktop space. If you are looking for a more robust server offering to host your PBX your next option is upgrading to SMB software which is compatible with a wider variety hardware. If you are looking for redundancy, the AA60 is available in a cold-spare form; in the event that the AA60 shuts down you can simply load the software CD that came with your original purchase to quickly get your office back up and running with minimum downtime.
