Canada’s internet phone landscape has been changing fast, many services were launched back in 2005 & 2006, some are still doing well now, more disappeared from our sight. There is one Canadian internet phone service provider (http://www.vbuzzer.com/ld/canadainternetphone.php) that I tracked and liked from the beginning throughout today, this provider is Vbuzzer. In my opinion, Vbuzzer offers the best quality, the most reliable service, at very low price, if not the lowest in Canada. While using vbuzzer for 3 years, I witnessed its constant improvement of the product, the website, the functionality, and design.

1. The software – Vbuzzer Messenger

Vbuzzer Messenger is a similar concept of instant messaging with pc to phone functionality. At its launch, Vbuzzer is just another soft phone that offer cheap but often cracked phone calls, since then it slowly but steadily evolve into an excellent IM.

- It offers all in one instant messaging with MSN, Yahoo, AIM and ICQ Instant Messenger

- It offers VoIP pc to phone, and phone to pc calling capability

- It offers internet fax over the very same Instant Messenger

- It offers RSS feeds syndications on the IM

- Its user interface is neat

2. The website

Vbuzzer website has undergone major upgrades every 6 months, if not 3 months, I don’t have a close track on their site, but every once in a while, I can see that they added a couple of features here and there, like call forward, call fork, etc.

3. The functionality

It is clear that Vbuzzer team is very busy, and they produce result – you can see a bunch of products listed on the website, from Vbuzzer Messenger, to mobile VoIP, to mobile phone call back, to Asterisk configuration, to VoIP ATA box configuration, to video conferencing, web conferencing, to video mail, to internet fax. In the last few years Vbuzzer has made itself a full blown communication service provider.

4. User Interface

The user interface of both website and vbuzzer messenger have improved every few months, the design is getting neater, cleaner, and friendlier. Recently I found they also upgraded their account management interface, which looks much better than the old version UI.

I have a Vbuzzer Toronto phone number with unlimited Toronto calling plan, I use it with a Linksys RT31P2-NA router ( a Linksys router with VoIP ports integrated). I always have dial tones in the line and never had any problem calling in & out, and the quality is the same as my previous Bell line, literally, no difference in voice quality!

Calling other cities of Canada is pretty cheap, 1.5 cent per minute, well, 1.7 cent after tax, but still, it is cheaper than most of the service providers I know. With that calling quality I get, 1.7 cent is like a breeze, and $10 or $20 deposit does go a long way with Vbuzzer, literally months.

Recently I start to use Vbuzzer as the only IM running on my desktop, after running MSN, Yahoo, and Skype on one computer, I start to look for an all in one alternative, and I’m glad that Vbuzzer provide this unified messaging feature. The experience is so far so good, I never missed any IM from my buddies at MSN and Yahoo. After running all of them altogether, I decided to shut down MSN, and Yahoo, and leave Vbuzzer only on my desktop.

So in my view, Vbuzzer is a superstar in the drama of Canada’s internet phone revolution. Any Canadian that is looking for quality internet phone service should take a serious look at vbuzzer (http://www.vbuzzer.com)
