"Express Talk Best so far"
Version: Express Talk VoIP Softphone 4.04
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I'm using Mac OSX 10.2.8. Tried X-Lite, Voiper, and several more. Mainly for tuning into group teleconferences that are organized through various conference calling companies. Express Talk has been the best, especially since this new upgrade. Earlier difficulties submitting access code. I've discovered that if I need to call back in to conference, because my 2 hour limit has been reached, there's about a 5 minute period before I can re-enter the access code. Otherwise, it's garbled by the receiving computer/phone system. This seems to be the case with all the softphones I've tried, Express-Talk being overall best.
Only complaint is that, unlike X-Lite, you can't change preferences while engaged, eg. from head-set to built-in mic. Records calls, and many features I haven't used, like 6 lines, transferring, hold, conference calling. -

Summary

I couldn't get it to connect to any of my SIP accounts, whether in my LAN or on the internet, although every other SIP client I have works for the same accounts.
When I tried to dial, i heard the ringing tone but since the client didn't connect, nothing happened so I hung up... but the ringing tone kept on going and going.
Then I tried to quit the app and it took half a minute.
Then I started it again, and I got a lovely SPOD for about 5 minutes.
I found this in console.log:
ExpressTalk(21384,0x1824e00) malloc: *** vm_allocate(size=1069056) failed (error code=3)
ExpressTalk(21384,0x1824e00) malloc: *** error: can't allocate region
ExpressTalk(21384,0x1824e00) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in szone_error to debug
repeated a few times. I couldn't find an application log.
Running 10.4.11 on an iMac.
