User Testimonials
	FreePBX	Panasonic KX-NSX Series
Likelihood to Recommend	Sangoma FreepBX is a great product if you are able and willing to manage your own PBX system. It requires some know-how to set up but once running, it works very well. There is a large community that helps answer questions, but it isn't "plug and play" so you will need to be able to research and troubleshoot your own issues (or pay for support).

Pros	Sangoma Standard telephony. VM to email. Firewall Expandable extensions. Incentivized Verified User Read full review	Panasonic No answers on this topic
Cons	Sangoma Phone integration/firmware can be clunky and has a learning curve. Relies on crowd sourcing information as expected for open-source. Requires some moderate expertise for setup. Incentivized Verified User Read full review	Panasonic No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Sangoma FreePBX is as functional and easier to set up and manage, at least compared to the version of UCM we were on. The menus are more intuitive and you do not need to have Cisco command-line memorized to make things work. Plus, there is no cost overhead with an open-source software.

Return on Investment	Sangoma Drastically reduced our direct telephony cost as we don't need to have the hardware and support. Very functional and added new functionality that we did not have previously. Incentivized Verified User Read full review	Panasonic No answers on this topic
