Yate Is Free VOIP Client For Linux That Supports Gtalk.

Having worked as a system administrator in a call center environment, I have learned that finding a free VOIP (Voice Over IP) software that actually works is quite difficult. The alternative to that can cost anything from 20$-35$ per month for each username rented from the service provider.

This also includes the server, client and supported usernames for managing and using a VOIP setup. Unfortunately, there are very few VOIP clients for Linux. And an even fewer are free.

Yate (Yet Another Telephony Engine) is a VOIP telephony with flexible routing engine which can reduce infrastructure costs for call center businesses. However, Yate is not merely designed for call centers and can be used as a VOIP client or server by common users who use voice over IP and businesses who require making a lot of calls.
In the protocols section you can enter a sip or use jabber, h323 or iax. Yate can be used as a VoIP server, VoIP client, Conference server for up to 200 channels in a single conference, VoIP to PSTN gateway, PC2Phone and Phone2PC gateway, IP Telephony server and/or client with:
