TMCnet recently interviewed Ivan Sixto, co-founder and president of I6NET and Fakhri Karray, co-founder and president of Vestec about Asterisk-based ASR solutions. Both companies are now entering in the mainstream as a lower-cost, more flexible and obsolescence-resistant alternative to traditional proprietary software for IVR.
