A Softphone is a computer program which allows you to make and receive calls using VoIP. While many softphones exist we only recommend those from Counterpath. Softphones do require your internet and computer to always be on and we highly recommend using a good quality USB headset.

ATA (Analog Telephone Adapter) Devices allow standard telephones or fax machines to use VoIP by connecting them to the internet via a router. These devices have a limited feature set available.

IP Phones look like typical office phones, except they plug directly into your internet router instead of a phone jack. These phones are highly recommended since they are configured for all features available on our system.

There are 3 basic requirements needed for our service; high speed internet, a router and a SIP compliant device. This device could be one of our supported IP Phones, ATA devices, Conference Phones and Softphones in addition to those from other reputable manufacturers.
