SJphone

Our flagship product is SJphone which is the best standard-based softphone for MS Windows, PocketPC, Linux, Mac OS X, web-applications etc.

It supports both SIP and H.323 standards, many features and comes with Internet Telephony Service Providers (ITSP) profiles, e.g. Linux/MAC OS Free World Dialup Profile, and a guide for creating your own profiles.

Downloads, support documents

I found this application to be quite techie-friendly with "Info" pane, Options -> Support -> Bug Reporting -> Start Recording / Submit, forums where developer replies etc etc. Not a pretty application, though there is some mention of "skins".

I "Registered", but I'm not sure if that enables any more functionality. Provided CODECs: GSM 6.10, iLBC 30ms and 20ms, Speex 15.2k and 15.2k 40ms and 8.0k 40ms, G.711 A-Law and u-Law. The purchased Windows SJphone Plus version comes with G.729.
