Did they ever add DNS SRV records for SIP Trunking with IP Office?  When I
tested 4.10 it only supported a single IP entry instead of either multiple
IP's or DNS with SRV record support.

That is on the Avaya Communication Manager, which is the Enterprise
platform. The IP Office is a small business platform, and has a completely
different support model. 

 

Absolutely EVERYTHING for the IP Office is right here, available to
everybody with no prerequisites:

If I remember correctly on the higher end Avaya switches the maintenance fee
is also considered the right to use fee for the software. And it is not
cheap, WAY more than smartnet.

I know it just amazes me they are saying this.  They are saying that they
will call the vendor that sold it and the vendor will do all the work, of
course for a fee, then they will not need maintenance from Avaya. If they
have a hardware problem they just keep a $500 system on the shelf and
replace it... Just seems odd. I don't know why everyone doesn't jump ship to
this if it is that cheap.

Unless they've changed totally then that's BS, Avaya's support was
expensive, and had contracts that were a royal pain to get out of if/when
you ever need to change anything, the ones I had also auto renewed and they
totally did not cover upgrades. This was 2-3 years ago and for a  Magix PBX
so I can't be sure but that's the experience I had.

Remember to compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges.

You don't HAVE to pay support to Cisco after you buy the system. It will run
and you can get support (but not major upgrades) from other venues, this
list being one.

I doubt highly that Avaya provides both hardware and major software
maintenance at no cost.

I have a customer that is looking at Avaya IP office system. One of their
biggest complaints with Cisco is the Smart net for the hardware and, ESW /
UCSS for the software. Avaya is telling them that there is NO maintenance
with their system. ever. So once they buy it they will not have the
reoccurring cost. I don't deal with any other systems except Cisco but this
just does not sound correct. Has anyone had experience with this?
