Elastix as a communication platform for people with disabilities on emerging countries

Functionality, quality and low costs are difficult to obtain. Many SMB companies around the world have the dilemma to implement top technological solutions to enhance their businesses, but must overcome the budget challenge.

This case study demonstrates how Elastix can be adapted to scenarios where functionality and quality are very important and the project budget is restricted.

To show how to solve this equation we looked up for several cases with these characteristics. After exploring many interesting cases, we chose a group of them that caught our attention; mainly because they show how Elastix is being used as a solution to be implemented in social projects, whether they´re private or governmental.

It is rewarding and interesting to develop functionalities that can be used to implement communication projects that integrate people with disabilities into society. It is interesting not only for the technological point of view but for the budget side as well.

In this document we will present three projects implemented in three different Latin American cities. In one of them we will see the use of Elastix as an entertainment solution for blind people, while in the other two we will see how Elastix helped create effective platforms that made possible to reinsert people with disabilities to working environments.
