Softphone developer Counterpath Solutions has released the latest version of its free SIP softphone, X-Lite 3.0 for the Mac operating system.
X-Lite 3.0 is based on eyeBeam 1.5, CounterPath's carrier grade commercial SIP softphone
client, and provides high quality audio/video capabilities, instant
messaging and presence management in combination with zero-touch
configuration, a comprehensive address book and more.
Users
looking for a feature-rich and easy-to-use softphone for their VoIP
service can download X-Lite 3.0 for Windows or Mac for free, from
CounterPath's website. The paid version, eyeBean
1.5 is the same client but adds more functionality such as more lines,
the ability to transfer calls and integration with Microsoft Outlook that lets you call from the Outlook platform.
Users who subscribe to a VoIP or Broadband service will be able to
experience the power of X-Lite as CounterPath enables them to
communicate anytime, anywhere by bringing their communication
experience directly to the end-point, says the company.
With its intuitive & familiar interface, users can seamlessly
transition from a traditional hard phone environment into the world of
Voice over IP. Also by making the navigation simple and user friendly,
X-Lite provides users with easy access to video and address book
management.
Counterpath reports that it has logged more than 2,500,000
downloads (at a current run rate of 130,000 per month) since it
launched the freesoftphone in April 2003.
