sip endpoint for iphone

[technicaluser4]

It would be nice to offer our Avaya customers a SIP endpoint for iphone / blackberry on which they can register their phone as an extension over WIFI/3G.

I have found some products that worked, but is there an Avaya version for such software? Having our customers running around with this and the Avaya logo on the phone would lead to more business opportunities, so how come there is none of this software available yet? - From Avaya?

Because they are very slow on the uptake, besides which they would only charge a large amount for a licence for it anyway

Well the license is already there for the sip endpoint, and there are loads of software that work just fine.

It is very funny though to have it running on your phone with an "ABC" logo and you have to get the customer to think that behind all of that there is an "AVAYA

 

[amriddle01]

Well that's the thing, it wouldn't be a third party endpoint anymore and so would open up the door for a new licence type, or they could chuck it in with the Mobile worker but that would mean not making lots of money for something and Avaya don't like that

That would be a good idea, then we could rid the world of some Call Manglers/Damagers which is never a bad thing

I use the 3CX sip softphone for the iphone.
When you have an iphone 4 then it keeps working, when you close it, because of the multitasking.

When you pay peanuts, you get monkeys!

honey, i fried the IP Office !!!

Sarcasm, it's only one of the services I offer.

 

[technicaluser4]

Yes I got it working on the 3CX, which is good, but then showing it to a prospect customer may think..huh..Avaya on 3cx? confusing eh!

 

[hairlessupportmonkey]

not really.

how about Polycom on an Avaya switch.... confusing?

Polycom works on an Avaya switch....

you dont by Ford Tyres to put on a Ford car do you?

[technicaluser4]

But Polycom do not offer anything for Free same way like 3CX..apart from that Polycom is not a competitor..rather a conferencing solution.

 

[TomMills]

is it specifically the fact that 3cx make a free system that confuses things? because there are other apps that work.

Hi tlpeter,

Do you know if you managed to get the 3CX work with IP Office over the mobile data network? (not WIFI)
I did not succeed myself so I thought it was a 3CX issue, infact they (3CX) told me that over 3G/mobile data networks, it only works with the 3CX platform.

 

[tlpeter]

The ipo should have an external ip address.
Then you need to enter the external ip address in the client.
You also need stun.
I tried it once a long time ago.

BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha... Sip softphone on a iPhone, are you serious? The iPhone CAN do anything but Apple won't allow you.
You're better off with a Android or a hm... Windows Mobile system.

symbian? whats that? like windows 3.1? symbian won't survive, apple and android are taking the lead, microsoft tries to keep up and symbian will only be used for low cost company phones.
Blackberry may be a unpredictable outsider because it is very popular among the youth and they are like real people, they stick on what they have.

Couterpath Makes a SIP Client for the iPhone. Its called Bria and I use it everyday. I have a IP500 V1 and I am using SIP clients and SIP trunks.

Counterpath, the Avaya IP Office Video SIP Softphone is a Counterpath product.

@intrigrant,

Symbian has a build in SIP client for 6 years now in the E-series from Nokia and they work very good. It's free, easy setup, and if you install the "Advanced Sip settings" then you can have more setting then any other App you can download. But i also think that they are loosing it, from Android and others. Nokia has also got a very good Linux phone called the N900 that thing is really amazing. And yes you can even run Win3.1 and Win95 on you phone.
