What is PhonerLite?
PhonerLite is a lightweight softphone for Windows that brings reliable Internet telephony to your desktop. To get started, you only need a full-duplex sound card, a microphone plus speakers or a headset, an Internet connection, and a SIP account from a compatible provider. Multiple SIP profiles can be configured independently so you can separate private and business use with ease.
PhonerLite supports modern encryption standards such as TLS, SRTP, and ZRTP.
Why is "PhonerLite" the right name?
- Phoner: There is an application called Phoner , with that PhonerLite shares common code and the file "sipper.dll". All VoIP specific configurations are the same and can be exchanged between Phoner and PhonerLite without any transformations. If Phoner and PhonerLite are installed in the same directory, they use the same DLL and configuration data (sipper.ini). Basically PhonerLite uses only a different GUI than Phoner.
- Lite: Like in Coke light the name affix suggests a light version of the original product. PhonerLite doesn't save any calories but resources - in this special case space and memory requirements. Usability is much easier than for Phoner due missing CAPI and TAPI related settings.
Is PhonerLite free of charge?
Yes. PhonerLite is freeware and can be used, copied, and redistributed free of charge in both private and business environments. Please note that PhonerLite is not open source. For licensing details, click here.
