Best Softphone Choice
« on: September 28, 2020, 08:57:47 AM »
Hi everyone, I have been searching the forums a bit but am still confused on this topic.  I am looking for the "best" softphone that I could use for my situation.  We have a MiVoice Office 250.  I have one, maybe two, users that would like a softphone that can work remotely.  Ideally I would like something that is standalone and doesn't require another platform/software to be installed alongside the MiVoice Office 250.  Just want to install the softphone on their machine, configure it with our teleworker/public address, add the phone wherever needed in my 250, and go - if that is possible.  I see the MiCollab Client Softphone listed - but I am unclear if that requires me to have a MiCollab server or anything like that?  It doesn't have to have any extra features, just dialing by extension and dialing outbound using our trunks on the controller.  I do have a couple spare Cat F licenses if a SIP solution is something that would work best.  If I use a SIP softphone, can it connect to our public IP address of our controller and register?  And, to add on top of this...we are MAC users, so I know this will severely limit my possibilities.  I do have Parallels running Windows on the machine, so that could be an option if necessary.

Thanks for your opinions!
