Asterisk turns a computer into a PBX (Private Branch Exchange)—basically a phone system for businesses or individuals. It lets you:

  • Make and receive calls over the internet (VoIP)
  • Set up extensions (like office phone numbers)
  • Create voicemail systems
  • Build interactive voice menus (“Press 1 for sales…”)
  • Route calls automatically

Key features

  • Voice over IP (VoIP) support
  • Call recording
  • Conferencing (group calls)
  • IVR (interactive voice response)
  • Integration with other apps (CRM systems, databases)
