-sipXconfig is the web based configuration system for sipX.
+sipXpbx is a full-featured SIP pbx proxy. Configuration is done
+via a web interface that also configures User Agents (aka SIP
+phones).
+
+From http://www.sipfoundry.org/features.html
+
+We think sipX is the leading open source IP PBX in terms of
+scalability, robustness and ease of use. The sipX IP PBX has been
+successfully deployed in a lot of places. The largest known
+installation serves more than 5,000 users connected to one redundant
+(HA) system. Small installations go all the way down to a few users
+served by very low cost hardware.
+
+There is a detailed list of features on the sipX Wiki (it is too
+long to re-produce here). Here is why you should consider using
+sipX:
+
+1) sipXconfigYou need an IP PBX that is robust, stable and easy to use
+
+2) Need a system that offers plug & play management of all the
+ components including phones
+
+3) It is a mission critical system and therefore you insist in
+ high-availability redundat configuration. A server failure should
+ not interrupt calls
+
+4) Voice quality is important to you and therefore you want a system
+ that routes media peer-to-peer and not through the PBX
+
+5) SIP standards compliance that allows flexible call routing including
+ SIP trunking
+
+6) Need scalability - sipX is known to work for deployments
+ in excess of 5,000 users connected to one redundant server
+
+7) Lots of features - of course, who does not want that
+
+8) Unlimited number of simultaneous calls, and unlimited number of
+ trunks using distributed gateways
+
+9) Need IT integration with no special needs for specific HW.
+
+10) Runs on off-the-shelf Intel servers
