Finally, a Phone System Built with IT in mind

CudaTel by Barracuda Networks is the PBX that IT guys around the globe have been waiting for. It’s easy to install, easy to manage, and has a low cost with a full set of features in every model. With CudaTel, you get: World-class 24x7 support, every feature with every box (no per-user or per-feature fees), a web-based user interface that just makes sense, and standards-based interoperability without proprietary lock-in.

Appliance Design

There’s no bulky equipment to bolt to a plywood board. Put CudaTel in the rack next to your Active Directory, Exchange, Windows and Linux servers. You know that VOIP is just another application on your network— it’s time to manage it that way.

Standards-Based Technology

Have you been burned by proprietary handsets and features? Locked into proprietary technology? CudaTel uses the SIP standard protocol, supported by phones and carriers around the world. Use any SIP-compatible phone, application, or smartphone app: Polycom, SIPDroid, Acrobits— you pick! Then, get connected using any SIP-compliant VOIP service at a fraction of the cost of traditional phone service.

Full-featured Local Management

Administrators can choose to manage users, groups and phones using the CudaTel itself. Management is 100% web based, and does not require any software installation. Initial configuration can also be expedited by leveraging CudaTel with an existing Active Directory or other LDAP directory.

CudaTel 2.5 EA Release

2011/11/10
For those of you who are familiar with and currently own a CudaTel, we tend to keep in good contact with our customers and strive vigorously to also create a good relationship with them. Many of our existing customers have heard through the grape-vine (aka: our support department), that the release of our new 2.5 firmware is very close at hand. As part of the early release process, I have been reviewing a select list of customers and working with them to upgrade their CudaTel. During this process, I’ve collected data to make our firmware more complete and as bug-free as humanly possible. With the help of our newly revamped QA department who spends 23/hours a day vigorously testing (I only let them sleep 1 hour a day). We have gathered over 1400 bug fixes and have added many new features (with the honorable mention of High Availability added to the UI for those customers who have been begging us to implement). If you are among the few and proud who enjoy a good epistle, you can read the following release notes here that have been weeded through for sanity purposes. After all is said and done, our 2.5 firmware is by far the most stable, most lustrous release to date. We hope to keep you updated with more frequent incremental releases in the future. Our next major release will contain a complete overhaul of the UI. Stay tuned for the latest news and updates!
