Appliance Webinar


"Are you an Asterisk developer looking for a small, low cost computer replacement to deploy Asterisk based applications in the Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) and Small/Medium Enterprises (SME) markets? As a manufacturer of both appliance and CTI board solutions, PIKA has experience in helping developers make the best choice between these two deployment options. The challenges of board and PC integration as well as your own company's core competencies and development skill set may affect your choice.

The ideal hardware platform should be completely customizable so you can add your Asterisk value-add to the final package. It also needs to be compatible with VOIP phones, analog devices, and must optionally integrate to the PSTN. This is a tall order but PIKA will show you how to do this in a very competitive fashion"

Joining us you will learn...

  • Factors to consider in choosing an application development platform
  • Telephony features to be considered that may be difficult to integrate in a traditional PC environment
  • Advantages of an embedded development environment
  • Steps required to integrate your Asterisk solution into an embedded PC environment
  • How PIKA makes it easy for non-embedded developers to get started
