SIP Service Providers
With Express Talk you could potentially call someone using their internet IP (eg. "bob@123.222.333.444") but this is not usually practical. It is much easier to use a friendly address like "bob@myphoneco.com". To have this you need to sign up with a SIP proxy service. This is almost always free to signup for and usually requires nothing more than an email address. See our SIP Recommended Service Providers List for a list of options.

Some of the companies also provide gateway services. This means cheap phone calls to ordinary (non internet) lines. They are particularly cheap for international calls since you only pay the local call rates.

Express Talk can be integrated with the following applications for a complete business solution:

You should also compare Express Talk to Office Intercom Press to Talk Internet Intercom. Office Intercom is similar to the Express Talk softphone but uses the press to talk model, is also much more suitable for low bandwidth dial-up connections.
