Use: In health care for clinics and doctors.
We are using asterix for recording doctor notes which are then transcribed in a back office and uploaded back to Amazon S3 via an automated parser script that updates metadata in the DB via secure APIs that we expose.

Automated call reminders to patients for appointments. The app is very stable – good work guys!

We bought an Asterisk VPS server and it came with Elastix on it. We learned alot with that and soon we upgraded to a dedicated server and deployed our entire request line, live caller dial in system using Asterisk. This is the most flexable Radio station telephone system ever! Other radio stations are asking us where they can buy our system or something similar, I told them “I dunno” lol.

Turn asterisk into Inventory Manager for any retail store or small stores. When the quantity of the goods reaches a threshold limit Asterisk system will wake and call the Store manager or Owner about the inventory status.

Asterisk can read our mail using Flite and MailCall and send it by fax to some one else with hylafax, inform by SMS to that person that a fax or e mail as been send to him, all that we can do´it using voice commands with LumenVox. This way we can manage or office with a phone call while we are driving or traveling.
