      @scottalanmiller That's why when people ask me about Office365 or Google Apps I try to keep a very very unbiased opinion of both. I'm deep on the Google services personally, would be an ordeal to fully convert because I've had access so long. But I just can't say one is better than the other because for me it comes down to the business processes that a small business has, their comfort level and willingness to "be different or agile". If they want to stick with what's familar, Office365 all the way. If they don't mind taking a walk on the wild side, Google Apps all the way. They don't care, well see the first description 🙂

              I was using Zoiper, but I got fed up with it. (of course, I was on the free version). I ended up getting a really nice Jabra Pro cell/desk/soft headset. I haven't launched my soft phone since.

                          I'm not sleeping. I got to sleep at 4:15AM CST this morning and was back up at 6:30AM so I could get ready for work onsite. I did fine today. No caffeine has bolstered my energy five-fold.

                            that's okay.

                              I have used several softphones over the years but recently have discovered Linphone and am really thrilled with it. So far I have found it to be rock solid and I really like that it is available on nearly every platform. I am currently using in on Windows 8.1 and iOS 7 but it is open source and I know that it is available on Linux, Mac OSX, Android and Blackberry. Very versatile.

                              I tried this on my MacBook Pro and did not like it at all. Trying it on my Windows dekstop now.

                                I really like the iphone app. the windows client is not that great.

                                  The iPhone client really works well.

                                    I like Jitsi, and Zoiper for Android.

                                      Cool, Jitsi is open source too: https://jitsi.org/

                                      Available for Windows, OSX, RPM (RHEL / SUSE), Ubuntu and Arch. That's pretty cool.

                                        We have started using MicroSIP a bit on Windows. It is in Chocolatey which is handy.

                                            Zulu works well on Windows. Not so much on Fedora yet.
