Hi,
We are currently using autodialer software that is capable of sending SMS and calling (with prerecorded messages) if there is an alarm. When the first person is not responding within 1 minute, a new SMS is send. After 3 times, the next person is tried. And so on. An alarm can be acknowledged by SMS or calling to a special number and entering a code.
The problem is that this setup is not flexible. The only way to configure this software (running on windows) is logging in to the box. The only way to send an alarm is via a snmp trap.
So I want to replace this box to a more setup-friendly (if possible open source) solution. A google search was not very helpfull, so do you hobbiters have an idea for software that I can use?
Stef
Stef,
I have no doubt that Asterisk can do this (festival or recording for voices, any number of things for SMS/email). The trick will be to learn and impliment it!
