Overall, Jive communications is the best choice out there - by far. I have $200 Cisco router purchased at BestBuy a few years ago, and better than 3meg up/down internet speed and it has performed flawlessly. I've seen complaints of sound clipping elsewhere, but I can honestly say I think this has everything to do with router settings. If you want ANY VOIP phone to work, you need to have a router that provides QOS (Quality of Service) settings. What that means is that on the router, you can set the port the phone is plugged into to have priorty over the other ports. When someone is downloading a large file, or playing a game over the internet, the sound quality will remain consistent because the QOS setting ensures it always has enough bandwidth.
I've been using Jive for 2.5 years and never experienced any problems that couldn't be quickly resolved. Most needs were things like making changes to how calls were routed, or adding/deleting users from the system. In cases where I forgot, a quick call to the Jive team resulted in action and resolution.
I would highly recommnend Jive to anyone looking for a good small business solution.
