They have a full voicemail & whatever thing with a web console for administration, as an OSS app, if you like that. http://www.openvbx.org/ I don't actually use it, but I like the basic idea: spend your expensive programming time on places where your unique contribution adds value to the business. Common infrastructure code, on the other hand, is like a web server: download the appropriate bit of OSS, drop it in, go back to doing valuable work. (I do my voicemail with a Twimlet, which is a less powerful version of the same idea: here's the minimum viable voicemail-to-email script, just copy/paste this URL into your config and you're good to go.) |

Unlike other open source solutions such as Asterisk or Freeswitch (which both suck in their own ways) where you can buy your own VoIP trunking/termination service from any number of companies and negotiate your own pricing.
Tropo has Twilio like functionality and some out of the box features for pbx-ing, but they allow you to either run hosted, or if I'm not mistaken, purchase their own backend telco engine and run in your own network with your own trunking provider.
