MicroSIP

 

MicroSIP is a portable SIP softphone based on the PJSIP stack available for Microsoft Windows. It is an alternative SIP softphone for Windows devices.


Installation

Download the latest version of the client from the MicroSIP website. At this writing, the current version is 3.20.3. There are two versions, as we do not yet support video, you can use the Lite version.

If you get an error message from Windows 10 Defender saying "Windows protected your PC," this can be safely ignored.

Simply click the underlined words saying More info and a second button will appear, saying Run anyway. Click that button, and you can proceed with the installation normally.


Unless you have a reason to otherwise, select English from the list and press OK.

If this will be the only SIP client you are using, you can leave the defaults. If you are using another SIP client that you would prefer to remain the default, uncheck the fourth box for Links association. By default, the program will install in your AppData folder, so it does not require administrative rights. Continue with the defaults until the program is installed.

Upon running for the first time, the program may request access through the firewall. Ensure you check Public networks, or you will not be able to make calls from locations outside of your office.
