Nir Simionovich has posted details of the beta of the new call analytics service:
Hi All,
I'd like to introduce you to something that we've been working on the past few months now.
Over the course of the past 6 months, we've been working on developing an analytical service for Asterisk based PBX systems. Primarily, currently supporting FreePBX based PBX systems, however, can cater to other variants as well.
So, what is it really about? it's all about your call data and getting an insight to information beyond that of merely CDR records. The humbug project aims at providing a call analytics service, similar to Google Analytics, without you needing to change anything in your dialplan or configuration. Simply insert a small PERL based agent to your Asterisk PBX system, and we'll collect the information directly from the manager port. The agent is fully open sourced, so you can look into it, make sure we don't do anything malicious and simply join in.
As time progresses and more data is accumulated, we'll be launching a call fraud analysis services to accompany the analytical service. The analytical services are totally FREE for you to use. Just go to the humbug website at http://www.humbuglabs.org and register. We'll contact you directly for the agent download. We welcome any critics, advice, code modifications and ideas. If' you've encountered fraud issues with your PBX, we'd love to hear about it, and analyze your case, so we may add it to our fraud signature database.
Asterisk PBX makers who wish to integrate humbug services into their offering are welcome to do so - just let us know, so we'll know who does what and where :-)
Kind Regards,
Nir Simionovich
The Humbug Project
