What is the best software for recording calls made with VoIP phones in an office? We have come across a situation where we would like to record some phone calls made in the workplace through our soft VoIP phones. Optimally, this software would be able to run on a computer connected to the same network without having to install anything on the server - however, I am not opposed to any solutions including the server. We're using Avaya VoIP phones that go directly into our network.

Why is the argument more v. less taxes and not the simple unfairness of this double taxation?

Does Broadband Talk enable me to call other VOIP phones? I have recently connected via the BT Broadband home hub and received the dedicated phone. I can call all my usual contacts but am unable to phone other VOIP phones. I called the BT Helpline but, quite honestly, they seem to know nothing at all about Broadband talk (didn't even know what I meant by VOIP or SKYPE). Can anyone tell me whether I can or cannot call other internet phones (if so, what am i doing wrong?) Thanks Hi and many thanks for all the help. Unfortunately, I'm still a little confused - the general opinion seems to be that I should be able to call VOIP (assuming the person I'm trying to call has a "number" that I can dial) - am I correct so far? But how is that different to "PC based VOIP" that I can't call? Sorry to be dumb but before I go back to the mind-numbing process of calling the BT helpline, I need to be sure of my understanding. Thanks again

What is the average unit cost per phone for a 5 - 50 unit VOIP setup? I'm getting ready to contract out the installation of a VOIP phone system in our offices. Initially we need 10 units, but will need to expand up to 50 within the next 2 years. On average, what should I expect the initial install and future upgrades to cost? Ideally, I'd like to break this down to a per unit cost, which I know will be higher with fewer phones and lowers as the cost is deferred across more phones. Thanks

Connecting VoIP phones to a cable modem? My friend is thinking about getting VoIP phones, instead of having analog telephone service. The cable technician ran a coaxial cable to where the VoIP phone will go, and then the technician connected the coaxial cable to a cable modem, which can give Internet access. That modem also has a 4-port switch. Can my friend take an RJ45 cable, and connect one end to the cable modem, and then connect the other end to a VoIP phone? If my friend has VoIP service, will the VoIP phone work, or will my friend need more equipment?
Do usb phones / headsets work with all voip services? I use yahoo voice and I love it, and I'm looking into getting a cordless handset and also a bluetooth wireless earpiece for my phone calls. I've only noticed very few voip phones that specifically say they work with yahoo. Does this mean that if it doesn't specifically say it works with yahoo voice, that it won't? For example, if I purchased a voip phone that says it "works with skype and other voip services" does this mean it will work with yahoo phone? Also, for bluetooth headsets and earpieces, will all of these work with my yahoo voice service? (Yes, my computer supports bluetooth.) Thanks in advance!
