Many of us have worked on several different phone systems over the years however I was wondering if there was one particular brand you found to be straight forward, intuitive and basically all around easier to program than the others.

I have heard that both Samsung and ESI are easy to program.

Samsung has very direct and clear programs which allow you to view how your entire system it setup.

ESI is suppose to have a great computer interface.

On the contrary, I have heard its very difficult to program Nitsuko and a couple of the others.

I would be interested in hearing everyone's opinion on the subject.

Thanks.

ESI talks to you, and has interactive help in many parts of programming. How much easier can you get? The PC interface is also nice for remote programming and viewing the existing programming.

Nec is ok too but to most pbx guys I think its all relative. The trick is to understand the wording ie lcr or ccr and the like oh and samsung manuals have been translated 3 times from the original language so the books dont read right as opposed to nortel that reads like a kids novel (very easy to understand)

ESI and The AT&T Partner are by far the easiest. However, most easy ones are not very flexable. Once you have done a system for a while (Even the Nitsuko i series) it does become easy and second nature.

Yeah, I would say the ESI is really easy. But like has been said easy usually = less flexible or capable.

That Nitsuko I-series is an insane system to program. Unless you know exactly what you want and have your manual, notes right in front of your face, you won't stand a chance.

I feel like I'm reading chinease when I look at that manual. It anyone here has programed Samsung or ESI then programed a Nitsuko I-series, you won't believe the difference in effort required to do a simple change.

I hope the newer Nitsuko are easier than the Nitsuko I-series to program?

Thanks
