provisioning: templates per company
It would be great to have the option to tweak phone provision templates per company.
Just allowing brand administrators (or only god administrator allowed) to customize phone templates per company.
And only allowing to change the contents but not the urls of templates already configured on god level.
With this and custom options by terminal the provisioning system would be enhanced a lot.
Hi @manfer
If I understand this properly, this would be #183 but at Company level instead of Terminal, isn't it?
Giving access to templates to brand or company admins doesn't sound like a good idea to me. But like in #183, the same field for Terminals could be added to Company, so terminal templates could append (but not change) data to templates with custom company or terminal settings (maybe the second will override company settings, otherwise they could conflict).
Hi @manfer and @Kaian
I think what @manfer means is #31 more than #183.
#183 was an easy way of adding a custom text-only parameter to specific terminals (e.g. callWaiting: no) until #31 is implemented. It was a simple idea suggested by a user and we thought that it could help on the meanwhile.
Currently there is no association between terminal models and companies or brands, so implementing something like this means adding this database relationship and corresponding portal sections.
Nevertheless, lot of work needs to be done in other areas and, honestly, provisioning, along with faxing, is one of the least attractive one. That's why #31 has not made any progress.
In addition, we sometimes think that a carrier oriented solution shouldn't care too much about manufacturer specific UAC configurations... In fact, there are third-party softwares that will do a much better job in this area, why not integrating with them instead of evolving our home-made provisioning system?
These are my 2 cents about this :)
Regards and thanks for your suggestions!!
Hi @cruzccl and @Kaian, this is indeed a duplicate of #31
¿Any third-party software suggestions for provisioning?
Ok, we have closed #31 as this one contains more details :+1:
I can't recommend you any third-party software, as I haven't tested any myself, sorry for that. Some people use Yealink provisioning service, but only works for Yealink phones.
