I'm a Panasonic dealer and never heard of the 826, I think you mean the 824. I personally can't stand the system, but I guess if you keep it real simple it's OK. Around here alarm companies and audio video guys install them. I heard Panasonic is going to discontinue the 824 since they recently made the KX-TDA50G model open to the public. So if you're thinking Panasonic, head for the TDA50G. Both the 824 and TDA50G has a stacked card design.
The ESI 50L is nice for small systems. It has a built in voicemail, easy to use. This system has a stacked card design also. ESI's 200 and 1000 have a slide in card design, those system are for larger installs.
