  That really wasn't the experience here. We had a thread on empathy a
few months back. Within the lifetime of that thread (may be a week),
empathy went from being everyone's favourite to being completely
broken! Empathy is a great software- just not ready yet. Give it a
little more time.

  Quiet frankly, Linux audio stack is a near complete mess! That
presents quiet a challenge to voice chat developers. Added to that,
proprietary multimedia signaling protocols and formats are tough to
crack! The only good news is the Jingle protocol. The devs are working
hard though. Keep your fingers crossed! Meanwhile you will have to put
up with poor voice chat and video chat capabilities.

  Anyway, since many are interested in cafe management software, but
can't find one- let me make a suggestion. (Most likely to remain just
a suggestion, but I will suggest it anyway). Why don't everyone create
one? (Ducks for cover!) This is not such a hard task - python will do
just fine. Remember  the software for the freedom toaster- it was
entirely created by FSUG-TVM members. Moreover, someone can make it
their college project.
