Qlingen vs Yeastar P-Series
Yeastar's P-Series comes as an appliance, a software install or a cloud edition, licensed by edition and user count, with the Linkus clients. Qlingen is a Yeastar P-Series alternative you run on your own cloud: a multi-tenant phone system on FreeSWITCH with call queues, callbacks, a browser softphone, a mobile app, an AI assistant and a full REST API — deployed and managed on a server in your own cloud account from one panel.
