        @scottalanmiller I assume @WLS-ITGuy means from FreePBX 13

        We didn't upgrade from 13, we did a clean slate build.

        So was this for a new install, or for a previous customer? If previous, how did you migrate all of your settings over?

          We did it on beta, so it was for internal. Wouldn't do that to outside customers.

          PBX are really easy to migrate by hand, no need to bring cruft over. IF you have hundreds of users and complex IVRs, yeah that can be a pain. For a typical SMB, how long does a manual migration take, an hour? And if you are cleaning up craft as you go, pruning extensions, it can be a break even on time.

            Bullshit. Again you have no perspective.

            An hour to migrate an entire PBX? Voicemail passwords? Extensions and secrets?

            Bull fucking shit.

                yeah, I tend to agree with JB here. Unless you can script the creation extensions with matching passwords, etc, etc, etc... anything more than a tiny shop will be more work to rebuild and manually migrate than to upgrade.

                        It appears that Firmware updates are now part of the system level updates done by yum as of version 14.

                            Yes. It is certianly still beta. I had major issues the first time then minor issues the last time.

                            The last time was my company PBX and I have some strangeness with my desk phone connecting. But another user's desk phone is not having the same problems.

                              @jaredbusch Good to know. I was thinking about doing this but I wasn't sure if it was truly still in beta or Sangoma was not keeping up to date.
