Types of Computer Phone Software
Phone software can be customized to fit the look and feel that you want for your applications. Softphones can be standalone programs or can be embedded in your PC or Web application:
Standalone Softphone
A standalone softphone is a PC program that includes softphone API routines.
This program can be developed in C/C++, Visual Basic, Active X Control, .NET Control and other PC programming protocols.
Database has developed a number of softphone models that can be used as standalone applications on your agent desktops. We also can customize your softphone for the look and feel that best suits your organization. And with our extensive software library, you can develop your own PC softphones.
Softphone Embedded in PC Applications
Softphone library calls can be embedded in your PC applications, effectively "CTI enabling" these applications. Phone information can be passed to these PC applications which can be launched based upon a phone event such as a received phone call.
Applications can be written in C/C++, Visual Basic, Active X Control, .NET Control and other protocols. Refer to our Softphone API manual.
Softphone Embedded in Web Application
Softphone functions can be embedded in your existing Web application. Phone functions can be initiated from your browser application.
Softphone Buttons Embedded in Existing Web Applications
The above example demonstrates the use of phone functions within a browser based application. Phone buttons can be embedded anywhere in your web application, connecting your users with our phone systems. This option provides limited phone functionality due to the asynchronous nature of web operation.
Web Application Embedded In Softphone
Conversely, the DSC softphone can control web applications within itself, offering complete navigational control of web pages and applications based upon phone events. The softphone can control which web page appears based upon a phone event such as the receipt of a call. This feature provides the maximum phone control and allows the softphone to launch web pages, passing variable information to each page as it is displayed.

The graphic buttons are just examples and can be tailored to fit your specific phone applications.
