Mobile Softphone App on both iOS and Android available!

I am confused. How is this app any different from the many other SIP apps such as CSipSimple?
(Besides the convient QR for setup, that was pretty slick)

It's not really much different at all. This is actually made by Acrobits and they also sell basically the same App in the App stores on their own that's not provider specific.

This is just a managed version is automatically configured and managed by us for users.

The bulk of our users aren't tech savvy enough to configure their own so this is just an easy option that we can officially support since we can control the provisioning/config remotely.

Functionality wise..no real difference than most others except SMS likely being integrated into our soon.

Russell,

The mobile phone application shouldn't have any impact on your BYOD credentials. The tokens that it uses are independent of the BYOD credentials. However, it still uses the same BYOD credentials on the backend provisioning server.

Thanks for the responses Tim and Daniel. I've installed it. The QR code approach to set the credentials was pretty cool!

I have my VoipO set to simulring to my cell. Do I need to disable that feature if I'm installing the Mobile Softphone app on my cell?
