OpenVBX which works with Indian Telephony networks
It’s finally here. and for those who don’t know OpenVBX its a open source web phone system created by Twilio. It allows you to create your business phone system using a simple drag and drop approach. Accompanied by its plugin repository, it has become a very successful and hacker friendly for people to come out with very innovative integrations. You can find some videos here:
You want A/B testing of your call flows, we got you covered. You want call routing, that’s there too. What about CRM integration? Absolutely yes. You can find these and a lot more plugins at the Plugin Repository, Because it is such a useful system and it is open source, other telephony guys have also provided their own flavours, the most famous of which is TropoVBX
some time back in may june of 2010 i was working on a app called talkifi, so for that i was hacking openvbx and trying to make it work with http://www.kookoo.in/ due to time constraint and all i thought of using some one’s help in building openvbx for kookoo i have posted the project on stalkninja (StalkNinja ). luckely i found this amazing guy from IIT Chennai Mr.Janardhan a first year student who could complete the task. You can find the project details here, http://stalkninja.com/
As i got busy with other things and didn’t find time to devote on this project I have decided to give the code to KooKoo so others can build on top of it. kookoo team have hosted it on GitHub you can download the code here. 
Steps to get started:
- Download code
- Host it on your PHP enabled web server
- Open the site in your browser
- Login as admin@kookoovbx.com and password test123
- Create your flow and paste the URL of the flow in your KooKoo settings page.
- Call your KooKoo number and listen to your flow.
So go ahead, download KooKooVBX and use it to build your own innovative cloud business phone systems. Since it is all in PHP, you are free to create/hack your own system and resell it on top of KooKo
o which is kind of robust easy to scale platform and spread across 8 states as of now.
Great work …:)
Thanks Rajesh
Its really amazing, I have just installed it on my server, I have created one flow also but not able to get what to do now. What is my virtual phone number. Also I wan’t able to do auto install thats why just changed credentials in the database config file and imported sql file in the database, I don’t know where to put twilio account details. Can you please help me on this. URL of the installation is http://mobidenthospitals.in/koo/
aman, you dont need to create a twilio account for this .. just get one Kookoo account and add the calling url in kookoo admin with the url that you have created using this openvbx. you can drop me an email if you need more help on this
Thanks for your reply bro, I just created an account on kookoo.in but its asking for some application url. What is it? and after logging in its giving me some pin, where do I put it?
application url is the one that you get after creating a flow in the openvbx u need to copy past this url in the kookoo admin panel
It worked bro, thanks alot. Its really awesome
how much will I get charged for using these service.(call cost)
you can check the pricing plans on http://kookoo.in and for any discounts you can get in touch with there support team.
i had success fully install
but
“Hey, you don’t have any of your own phone numbers!
You can get toll free numbers, or local numbers in nearly any area code, that people can use to call you.”
how to import nos
soumya, you need to register with kookoo.in and get a phone number, once you have registered there you need to add a URL in there dashboard so you can copy past the URL that you have generated using openvbx tool in there dashboard so every time some one calls your number the Flow in the openvbx will be invoked
thats how it works . little bit different from the twilio
