Pros: Available the world over; Call & billing history.
Cons: Advertisements; Lots of errors on website.
Summary: I first began using Internet telephony - that is, the PC-to-Phone or PC-to-PC system - back in 1998, with Net2Phone. It was a still paid service then, and when similar FREE services like Dialpad were launched, I naturally flocked to them instead. When ... read more

Pros: Well, it does work
Cons: Net2Phone 2.1 installs BargainBuddy
Summary: In 2001 I installed Net2Phone 1.x on my notebook with the intention of making international PC to PC calls. I didn't expect much in the way of quality over what was then the first DSL connection in my neighbourhood. I underestimated Net2Phone. Perhaps it ... read more

Pros: None that I discovered.
Cons: Bad sound quality.
Non-existent customer service.
$25 minimum.
Summary: Add my name to this list of people who have gotten suckered by this so-called "service."
I was moving overseas and looking for a cheap way to keep in touch with friends and family back in the U.S. when I discovered Net2Phone. So I signed on. ... read more

Pros: Widely known
Cons: Requires a $25 minimum to use, trouble with trial use
Summary: I recently decided to get rid of my land line and go totally wireless. I signed up with Verizon and got my wife and son on the family share plan. So far so good, but what if we run out of our anytime minutes? It seemed foolish to add a large number of ... read more

Pros: it is ok when it works
Cons: unreliable, especially on weekends when traffic increases, problems with billing
Summary: I make frequent phone calls from the US to Europe, and even though the 30-something cents/minute rate from the regular phone companies is not so bad, compared to the prices charged in Europe (e.g. $1 per minute in Poland) I was tempted to cut the costs ... read more

Pros: If you have a clear connection, and if you credit card gives you cash back
Cons: Free lunch is getting less and less.
Summary: Before Net2phone, there was a dialpad, dialtree, and all other free pc to phone, pc to pc software.
It's pretty neat that you can call someone by using a pc, and the other party just received a call from original phone.

Pros: Easy to connect.
Cons: Appalling customer service. False charges.
Summary: Despite the easy-to-use interface and good rates (plus free 5 min calls within the US), I do not recommend this product.
After a week of use I wanted to add funds to my account and found out that it has been moved to 'inactive' status. This ... read more

Pros: Inexpensive calls
Cons: Unreliable, billing problems
Summary: Net2phone is has been around for awhile. They allow you to make free 5 minute calls in the US and low price domestic and International calls. I have friends in Europe so I figured I'd try it out. My long distance savings were 50% over MCI or ATT.

Pros: Great Idea, and It's FREE...
Cons: Delay/Echo Can Mess up Conversations...
Summary: Earlier this year I first heard about a few programs that you can use to make free calls to anywhere in the US, so naturally I got excited. The first program that I used for this feature was Yahoo Messenger, it was pretty bad most of the time, there was ... read more

Pros: Better than Dialpad from developing countries (Egypt, Ukraine) with poor internet.
Cons: Poor customer service. Helpless desk attitude.
Summary: I decided to try AIMphone (Net2Phone) when Dialpad wouldn't work on account of poor connections, probably a high number of lost packets coming from countries with inadequate IP services.
Generally the quality was better - both Dialpad and Net2Phone ... read more

Pros: Free domestic calling within the U.S.
Cons: People may ask you if you have a cold...
Summary: It's always nice to save money.
If you run a business you know that even a few dollars a day can affect your bottom line.

Needless to ... read more
