    Ventrilo: The Best in VoIP? - Why Ventrilo?


    (Page 2 of 4 )

     

    Ventrilo, or vent as it’s popularly called, is well-liked by computer users because it takes up few resources and offers a very user-friendly interface. The options and functions of the software are obvious right away, making Ventrilo extremely uncomplicated. Since vent requires little to run and is so simple to operate, it’s often used by online gamers. It’s only possible to talk with people using vent by using vent yourself, a fact that’s helped to lead the software to widespread success.

    Ventrilo works on a push-to-talk protocol. When you’re logged into a vent server, you’ll have to hold down a button (the default is left Ctrl) in order to speak. The voices of others will pour out of your speakers; in-program volume adjustments help you put everyone at the right level for your particular computer.

    Want to talk to your gaming friends with the simple touch of a button? Have Internet-savvy family members but don’t want long distance telephone charges? Think that your business could benefit from voice over Internet protocol that allows you to hold meetings despite location? You might went to get vent.
