Sangoma Customer Testimonials

Stephen Lewis, CTO - Your Golf Travel

I'm sure you get bored of people saying it, but I wanted to express my gratitude for your excellent support - it is without doubt the best I've encountered (across all the software and hardware organisations I've dealt with).

Particular thanks are due to Ben Bueno - I only wish we could find employees who are as skilled (and friendly!) as he is.

Gerry McHugh - Ashelle Networks Ltd.

I would like to thank you at Sangoma, especially Leo for your recent help with case #274. I definitely could not speak highly enough of your support system, and the fact that it is free is unbelievable, the support is so good I don't think any company would have a problem with paying for it.

I have Sangoma cards in all my trixbox systems, which may only be about 10, but I definitely will be using Sangoma for any future systems and interface cards I may need.
