Free Softphone for Windows, Mac: Zoiper™

Written by 

softphoneOut of 20 or so softphones I’ve tested, I’m only recommending four that I consider keepers. Zoiper 2.0™ is the last but not the least. Don’t confuse Zoiper 2.0™ with Zoiper Communicator™ as the latter is a little bit complicated.  Zoiper 2.0™ is a simple softphone and perfect for computers with little memory on board, as it doesn’t hog resources like the other softphones.

Zoiper 2.0™ allows for free download on Windows™, Linux™ or Mac™. Installation and set-up is a breeze. Follow the instructions below for quick set-up:

zoiper1

Click on options after running it for the first time.

zoiper2

Click on “Add new SIP account” and name the account. Click “OK.”

zoiper31

As usual, you just need to enter your OneSuite VoIP name, password and domain. Enter any preferred name for Caller ID name. Then click “OK.” Now you’re ready to make calls.

Domain: voip.onesuite.com

Username: Onesuite username-voip.onesuite.com

Password: Softphone password

Zoiper 2.0™ conferencing and voicemail features are only available on paid version. Voicemail feature is provider-dependent but OneSuite’s SuiteAdvantage does offer free voicemail feature. You can still retrieve voicemails on Zoiper 2.0™ by entering *0 and call button.

    Can you elaborate where and when the error comes? Did you already installed the softphone? Do you see in the screen if you are logged in already?

    Yes you should put 5060 on the port box to be able to log in. Anything else on that port box will give you an error or it will just time out.
