  1. anybody: The snom ONE mini retails for $599, i dont know where you got the $849 from. The second thing is that the snomONE mini comes with v4.5 of the snomONE software which is a full featured PBX with 20 seats, so there's no real reason to upgrade unless you are looking for the newer features like Fax2email, ActiveSync and Microsoft Lync Presence which have been added in v5.x of snomONE. If this is the case, you can still upgrade the snomONE mini to v5.x at a 50% discount.

    Concurrent calls means how many simultaneous calls can be made on the system at any given time. The snomONE Free comes with 2 concurrent calls. If 2 extensions on the snomONE are talking to each other, that counts as 1 call. If 2 extensions are talking to 2 external numbers, that counts as 2 calls.

  2. snom ONE as a Service (hostedi.am)

    snomONE on cloud is finally here!!!
    We call it Hosted-I-Am or hostedi.am. Our hostedi.am managed voice services will enable businesses to lower the total cost of ownership of their telephone systems by providing a managed snomONE system along with its complete suite of business features. For businesses with multiple branch offices, hostedi.am will provide a single system that will seamlessly connect all locations without the need for a complex infrastructure. Running your phone system in the cloud will now allow your employees to connect to your phone system from anywhere, anytime!

    Bring your own trunk (BYOT)

    We make the service even simpler for you! hostedi.am does not include PSTN termination; giving you the ultimate freedom in selecting the trunk provider of your choice. While this may sound like an extra step, it has significant advantages over traditional cloud based services:


    • Better termination prices. If the SIP trunk comes from the provider of the hosted PBX, it often comes with visible and hidden costs for the termination.
    • Destination-dependent routes. You may have multiple trunks. This means that you can choose also different trunk providers, for example one who gives you service for the USA and another one for India, if you have a lot of calls to India.
    • Independent contracts. If you are not happy with a trunk provider, you are not locked in by the PBX contract. The contract with the SIP provider does not depend on the number of extensions that you have.
    • Public IP. When you use the hostedi.am service, your trunk will use a public IP address. This means that you don't have to deal with NAT and firewall issues like when operating the PBX on a private IP address in your office.

    Setting up SIP trunks has become easy. Most service providers provide online self-service where you can choose your DID and set up the trunk in minutes.

    Sign-up

    Sign-up is really simple. Go to http://www.hostedi.am and sign-in with your snomONE account (if you don't have one yet you can register at no cost). Once you are signed-in follow the steps from the Get Started button.


    Become a reseller

    We believe in the cloud and so should you. Our cloud service introduces a new reseller program for our cloud service. This program will enable hostedi.am resellers to earn recurring revenues from us based on referrals. More details available at partner@vodia.com

  3. Lucadef: snomONE pricing was subsidized on purpose when snomONE was part of snom. The idea was to push the phones and throw in the PBX as an incentive. While this model was ok earlier, it does not make sense now that Vodia is independently running the PBX business. Also i disagree with you on the pricing point. Yes there are a lot of other options out there like 3CX, Brekeke etc. but each comes with its own quirks. Not to mention that you will not find such a huge price difference between these products. It really depends on what you are looking for, e.g. 3CX charges for call licenses while snomONE charges for user licenses, but for a certain size of deployment the prices would be round about the same. On the topic of Microsoft Lync, i am not sure you can deploy Lync for $5000. This might be the cost of the server but you are overlooking the client CAL licenses which add up to $100 plus per user.

  4. Northern: The point the administrator is trying to make is that while you might have paid for the hardware to run the snomONE, you did not pay for the snomONE Free software. While this arrangement was fine when snomONE was part of snom, this does not make much sense now that snomONE is owned by an independent company. Vodia Networks now owns snomONE, and we are solely focusing on the PBX business.

    We are encouraging all our existing customers to upgrade to v5.0 as it comes with a lot of improvements and add-ons like Fax-2-email, MS Lync Presence and Attendant Console function. I'm sure you will find the upgrade to be your moneys worth.

  5. I think i figured out what the problem is.

    You need to have the same SIP and Web password on the snom ONE for the UC Client

    If you have different passwords, it wont work because the UC Client downloads the Contact list using the web password.

  6. I downloaded and installed it. It registered up great and shows good progress! I am currently running PBX 1075. Here is what I have noticed:

     

    Calls - Works as described!

    Phone - Pad works when in call, no problem. I only wish it would pop when a call is made.

    Messages - Play dials voice mail normally. If you are dialed in and listening to a voice mail and press the x button, it dials the voicemail also and both calls talk simultaneously. Is the X button supposed to be delete?

    Frequent Contacts - I don't know how this works. It doesn't correspond to my extensions address book, is there something I need to do here?

    Other Contacts - See Frequent Contacts

    Call History - Not working

     

     

    Good progress guys cant wait for the finished product!

    Can you verify that your UC Client is registered? Do you see a green icon at the bottom left with label "Registered"?

    The Other Contacts list should be populated with the Accounts configured on your snom ONE. The Frequent Contacts gets populated by adding a Contact from the Other Contacts to the list by right click on a contact and then clicking "Copy to Frequent Contacts".

    Call History should be populated with your incoming/outgoing calls.

    The Messages play and delete buttons right now dial into the mailbox. With the newer version of the snom ONE, you will be able to directly listen to the voice message (without dial-in) and also delete it the same way.

  7. eyeless: Can you check if you have accidently turned on the setting "Identity->Behaviour->Intercom Incoming"? Cuz this setting makes the handset accept all incoming calls automatically. Its meant for announcements.
