Google talk (Windows, Mac, Linux) is a free alternative to Skype. It allows to make audio and video calls, create conferences. And it supports a text chat which is much better than the one offered by Skype.

You can use Google Talk software for making calls. And you can also use a Voice and Video Chat browser plugin that supports voice and video chat between Gmail users. The plugin is available for Windows (XP, Vista, and 7), Mac OS X (only on Intel-based Macs), and Linux (Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, and OpenSUSE packages available, but the binaries work on other systems). The plugin must be downloaded and installed, but otherwise seamlessly integrates into the Gmail interface.

Hi friend,
I come to know about lastest Ipad app - PGi GlobalMeet HD, which automatically connect to business meeting, with audio, web and video conferencing solution on a single touch. This will also gives a secure environment for confidential exchanges.
And the exciting thing is, It can be downloaded free from the iPad App Store.
I found an informative blog about this app at Conferencing Shopper website. You can also have a look there for detail.

Has anyone tried the cometcall software? It is available for free so I would like to use that but I would like to know opinions first. I run a small business so cannot afford commercial solutions.
