Hi I tried Xten, its very good, because it can stay in the taskbar (next to the clock) and start when windows starts, and is allways ready to receive calls. Maybe it s the best way to introduce VoIP to my company workers.... But theres a feature that s missing (or I couldnt find), there s no way to connect this softphone with the adress book. I think this feature is very important, because everybody has allready a big adressbook with the friends emails, and we dont want to have this adressbook replicated (windows adressbook and Xlite phonebook).

Thanks Joao

Can someone share their experience about the implementation of VoIP softphones in a company?.... because usualy people dont want to make changes in the way they work.... I would like to know a way to convince peaple in my company to use them.

X-Ten have some great products, but their sales support have been a bit lazy in responding to my requests I've found. Hopefully better news for you all later on that one.

There is an interesting project at https://sip-communicator.dev.java.net/

This impliments a Java SIP Phone, and is open source so could be modified to your projects I guess. I'm looking at it for the future, but have not got to grips with it yet. Maybe tomorrow! :)

SJPhone is really quite good. Not up there with the X-Ten GUI, but a capable client and for me I've found the Windows/Linux/WinCE compiles useful if you are looking to deploy over hardware from Desktop to WiFi Organiser. ( http://www.sjlabs.com/ )

Finally, if you are working with Linux desktops, Kphone is getting quite good. Still needs work, but reliable and useful at the mo I've found.

hth,

Ian B

Have you tried Xten support? I'm sure they have a way to import the phonebook.
