Hello Emiliano,

If you want the dialpad and some other "phone-ish" features and you are on 
Linux or Mac OSX (Windows should work too, but I haven't tested in ages) , you 
can always compile the Ring KDE client. It is based on the older "SFLphone" 
software (the previous name of Ring) and retain the full phone/callcenter 
workflow and user interface[1][2]. The issue here is that it is currently not 
packaged and only support Fedora 20+, Arch (current), Gentoo (current), 
Ubuntu/Kubuntu 15.04+, Debian Unstable and OS X Mountain Lion+ (with homebrew). 
It is not very hard to generate the debian and Fedora packages using the 
"packaging" branch from the source, but obviously is a barrier for adoption. I 
plan to resume releasing packages for the next stable version I plan to release 
along with the rest of KDE in early December. Another issue is that it doesn't 
integrate very well with OS X and Gnome desktop, so it look rather ugly there. 
Then it might take a lot of space because of all the KDE dependencies if it is 
your only KDE application.

you can move/stack/close the history and contact panels to get the "simple" 
phone user interface back and the dialpad can be turned on from the View menu.

Regards,
Emmanuel
