Getting Started

What products

We recommned you get started with a finished appliance for your first IPBX solutions. Consider Epygi for up to 4 lines and 32 extensions and Allworx for 9 lines and up to 100 extensions.

After your first few successful IPBX appliance sales you are ready to consider selling your first IPBX server based solution. We recommend PBXinSIP for resellers that focus on windows and Asterisk if you have experience with Linux.

If you haven't looked at Asterisk yet get a Asterisk Starter Kit This is the ideal way to discover this open source platform and see if if makes sense for you to get involved in creating your own Telephony solutions.

Call your ABP sales engineer to discuss the different entry points and options depending on your market, current business opportunities and long-term goals.

How to get started and make profits with VoIP

Introduction to VoIP – A resellers perspective on solution delivery

As a reseller starting out in VoIP, your entry into IP based communications is largely the same as starting a new journey. You need a map and a destination before starting out. Otherwise you may end up elsewhere.

ABP provides regional based Introduction to VoIP seminars for resellers that are getting into this growing market. These ½ day tutorials are designed to give you the information you need to start out by addressing some of the most common issues faced in VoIP deployments. Seminars are held once per quarter in major cities including Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas. Denver, New York, Seattle, St. Louis and Ft. Lauderdale. The cost for this is $49 for each participant which includes lunch. Advanced registration is recommended as seating is limited and these always sell out. Call your sales representative and ask about our next seminars so you can choose what best suits your needs.
