Bandwidth.com has just made an investment in FreePBX,
the popular front-end interface to Asterisk-based distros. I discussed this
news with Philippe Lindheimer just a couple hours ago. One of the questions
I asked was if Bandwidth.com would get "preferred treatment"
within the FreePBX interface, since Bandwidth.com offers SIP trunking.
Obviously, if
FreePBX gives Bandwidth.com a prominent position in the GUI or they make it
"easier" to configure FreePBX (i.e. plug-n-play) that could be a
huge boon to Bandwidth.com Philippe said that that isn't part of the
investment announcement being made today, however, that is something they
are looking at.
As for the purpose of the investment, Philippe said it was mostly due to Bandwidth.com's desire to grow the market and help build the FreePBX community. The idea is that the more IP-PBXs out there, the more SIP trunks, and hence more revenue for Bandwidth.com. I have some further thoughts on this, but I'm pretty busy today and wanted to share the news. |
