Tom We came down to linphone and qutecom. linphone echo canceller was a modest plus. But what really made us choose linphone was you use it on android/iphone. That has been a huge plus. As a bonus, you can use any degegistered smartphone - that is, one not hooked up to the cellular network,only wireless - as a softphone. sean -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Tom Hi, Our requirements were different, so we came to three candidates; linphone, ekiga and jitsi Linhphone is easy to pre-configure from a script and the buttons are easier to use, but lacks the possility for an ldap-adres-book. With ekiga you have the adresbook, but you have to use the mouse everywhere (the return-button gives unexpected results) And with jitsi (java-based) you are independant of Qt/GTK. hw -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

For instance, we have a couple of Droids that used to be on Verizon. They work just fine as sip-phones over wifi. sean -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

[asterisk-users] best softphone for 2012?
Just installed asterisknow 1.6. I can access freepbx. I need to test system on my LAN. Which softphone is best to use? I'm running ubuntu on Dell optiplex G260 desktop at home. I'm hoping to setup basic IP PBX for incoming/outgoing calls. No video. Tom -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

I'm running ubuntu on Dell optiplex G260 desktop at home. I'm hoping to setup basic IP PBX for incoming/outgoing calls. No video. We've tried out Qutecom, Linphone and SFLPhone, and all three work well for our client's environment (call-out centre). We finally implemented Qutecom for most of the desktops, for some reason that escapes my memory right now. Ekiga was just too heavy for our needs. There's also Twinkle, which is what we use for testing since it's light and fast.
