It’s not too often when I come across a piece of software that immediately makes me want to setup a demo, call up clients and simply say, “You HAVE to see this, this software is for you!”

The other day I had one of those rare moments. Looking through my email there was a newsletter which mentioned OpenVBX , so I signed up for an account with Twilio and got my $30 of free sandbox credit, and then went on to install OpenVBX (with the DreamHost One-Click Installer). It took me about 10 minutes to setup my first call flow, menu items, voicemail, and finally get my first call into the sandbox number.

I haven’t tried modifying the themes yet, or taken too close a look at the API, but it all seems so simple, right out of the box, and I’m already thinking about those first few calls.

Thanks Twilio, you’ve already made me into a fan.
