This depends on your application. As you say you are able to do everything you
require in dialplan at that is great. I have used AGI fairly extensively becuase
the stuff I want to do can't be done in dialplan alone. For instance i have
written a auto attendants that can be dynamically controlled by a non-techie
user with real time and in call reconfiguration. Also i have written IVR apps
that hook into our CRM and Accounting systems for fault reporting and credit
card payments etc.
What you need is the tool for the job like everything in life :-)

Subject: [asterisk-users] Dialplan programming vs. AGI vs. ???
Just a general question on dialplan programming... I've implemented a
fairly full-featured system using dialplan code only. I've not used any
AGI for it, yet it ticks all the boxes I want it to tick (diverts,
follow-me, voicemail, dnd, outdialing restrictions, simple auto-attendant,
and numerous "star codes" to control it all) This is all aimed at the
small/medium office PBX type application.
But I'm curious as to the approach others use. Is doing dialplan coding in
an AGI more efficient, or do people just do it that way because it's
easier than learning dialplan code? Or are there some things that people
think they can't do any other way?
So I'm just after some ideas, really, possibly to work out if it's worth
my while going down the AGI route for future projects, or not!?!
Any feedback is most welcome!
Cheers,
Gordon
