In their own words
Bria Solo
Bria Solo is a softphone for individual users who want voice and video calling through a service provider, call server or IP PBX they choose. It does not include voice or messaging service, so it must be paired with one of those systems. Calling accounts are configured in a web portal that stores settings for use across devices. Example integrations include Asterisk, FreePBX, sipgate and onsip; contacts can come from Google, Microsoft Outlook, iOS and Android. The paid plan includes HD voice and video, call transfer and forwarding, auto answer, recording and call history. Bria Solo Free costs nothing and supports one device and one SIP/VoIP account, with weekly call limits and personal, non-commercial use. Bria Solo costs $2.95 a year, billed $35.40 per year on an annual plan, with taxes not included. A 21-day trial is advertised without a credit card; the pricing note lists a 14-day trial. Apps are available for Windows, macOS, iOS and Android.
