You can buy very nice, brand new phones for about $120. You can get cheap new ones for around $80.

Cox wanted $20/month/extension - but that includes them installing a whole new wireplant, switches, phones, etc. They manage the entire thing. At that price it's not a bad offering. They do offer less expensive options that allow you to use your preexisting networking, etc, but I don't have that pricing.
If that is over, say, 18 phones it is not a very good deal. That is quite a lot of money.

Have you used any of the Ubiquiti UVPs?

West Teleservices has DID's to a rather large percentage of their staff, if not everyone.
Yes, we've established that that one, smaller enterprise in the midwest does not follow the norms of the Fortune 500 in the rest of the world very often

Oh it's way to damned expensive - but it's a fully managed/hosted/etc solution.

I tried to find a some videos on them, but the only ones I found were unboxing videos. One guy had a video setting it up, but didn't have a pbx to connect it to for the video.

No "but", it's expensive. As someone who does that all for less.....

Do you still have the same opinion of Elastix as I've read before @scottalanmiller?

I've started and or stated in more than one thread here and on SW that Elastix is basically dead.

Depends when you read it. Elastix was a great product and I think @JaredBusch would agree with me. But as things stand today, it looks like Elastix went under and the lights are still on (website hasn't been taken down yet) but the company itself appears to be gone (a la ShopTech from another thread.)
FreePBX is the key player here now having stepped into Elastix' shoes.

Elastix doesn't seem to be doing anything anymore. It has been months since the last time that they had an update. They tried making their own interface and moving away from the FreePBX interface and it did not work out well for them at all. They ended up having to fall back to their old system and kind of died off in the process.
-
Elastix is not an open source project itself. The devs could be super busy, but there has been almost no real information released for months.
The current systems are not stable enough that I would ever feel comfortable deploying them.
I honestly assume that they are active, but they have ALWAYS had very little presence.
Elastix World was Oct 7-8
Their social media is as active as normal:
https://twitter.com/elastix
https://www.facebook.com/elastixTheir community forum has always been anemic.
The last announcement there is a year old and by Bob, a non-Palosanto employee that seems to be the only face to their community.
There is not even an updated announcement post about Elastix 4 and Elastix MT 1. Instead there is a simple edit to the old announcement linking to another thread by bob that then links to this news post. http://www.elastix.com/en/elastix-splits-into-two-products that was made in January 2015

For those that do not know, Elastix has always been huge outside of the US.
