The question comes down to the differences between Centos 5.x and Debian 8.x
Install media: CD only or CD and USB flash
Kernel version: 2.x or 3.x
Support for newer hardware
Supported updates of distribution
Zaptel vs DAHDI
Ongoing AllStar support.

The old adage applies, If it works, don't fix it. If you are happy with ACID keep it. If you are doing a new install, it's up to you.

Understand, I'm slightly biased.

I’m sure this has been discussed before, but I was unable to find on Google search
a simple list of features that Dial will get me over my current Acid setup. Can I get
an opinion of whether it’s advantageous to migrate to Dial?
