Check Phone System compatibility via TAPI or SIP

1066 views 1 Updated on July 26, 2022

Update:  To test the compatibility of your phone system, please download the Phone Test Tool. A sptep-by-step user guide is in the ZIP-file included. The tool offers two commmunication channels (TAPI and SIP). You need only one of them to be able to use our CTI addon. 

The goal of that blog article is to describe how to easily test whether TelephoneIntegration addon would work with customer PhoneSystem (PBX) either via TAPI or via SIP. This is the easiest 5 minute testing without any deep technical knowledge about TAPI or SIP.

If you are unsure, please check with your phone system vendor for availability.

3) If #2 is no: Is your phone SIP-based? (yes/no)
If you are unsure, please check with your phone system vendor for details.

4) Depending on Have you been able to verify compatibility using the information below?
