Softphone desktop application
Bria Solo is a softphone application that offers communication features for personal use. The desktop application was developed by CounterPath Corporation, a unified communications and collaboration provider for enterprises and other services providers. Bria Solo offers the same HD voice and video calling capabilities as its professional counterpart. You will find that the features are displayed in a plain interface. This will help you transition from a phone environment to its Voice over IP capability. Bria Solo Free is also the renamed and updated version of XLite. Users of XLite will now have to upgrade to Bria Solo as well as provide CounterPath the details of their session initiation protocol or SIP details.
Bria Solo is a program for individuals that need a softphone in all their devices. You can use Bria Solo for desktop on Windows and Mac OS X computers. It also has a mobile version for Android and iOS devices. The Windows version of Bria Solo is compatible with Windows 10 only. It should also be the Fall Creator Update or a newer version of Windows 10 with 2-in-1 tablet support. It’s also worth noting that the desktop application works best on 8 GB of RAM and 600 MB of hard disk space.
Enterprise telephone features
Calls will be displayed on the foreground of the application. This means the caller will appear on the call panel. You can also receive push notifications when you’re running the program in the background but you will need to configure the settings to do that. Bria will not automatically launch if a user is calling you and the app is not running on your device. The person can opt to leave you a voice mail but you will need to configure the program with your VoIP service provider or system administrator.
