The possibilities of modern technologies are growing every day. And today you can contact your loved ones, even without a phone at hand. To do this, it is enough to have a computer with Internet access, headphones and a microphone. And, of course, you need a special program. Most users use the free Skype application. It is, of course, convenient, but not the only one. Back in 2010, Megafon offered its customers an interesting alternative - the Multifon program.
This application can be downloaded by any Internet user to your computer or even smartphone. It is provided in the same way as Skype, completely free of charge. But over the last program, "Multifon" has one indisputable advantage. She has a common account with a Megafon subscriber number. In addition, if you call a mobile from a computer using "Multifon", a person will see the usual number of hisfriend or relative.
But that's not the only reason why you should at least take a look at "Multifon". The program has a very friendly and obvious interface. Most users will not even have a question about how to make a call from a computer to a phone using the application. In addition, the cost of calls in the Multifon program is very attractive (from 80 kopecks per minute), it does not change even in roaming. It is enough just to have such an application on your computer. True, Internet traffic will be paid separately, but according to the selected local tariff.
Besides, "Multifon" is not only free incoming and cheap outgoing calls. With this program, you can send SMS and MMS messages, chat, share your mood using status, and even make a video call. That is, it does not just make it possible to call through a computer to a phone. This is actually a complete application with which you can communicate with your loved ones over long distances.
But since you can call from a computer to a phone using different programs, the Megafon company did not stop there. Special versions of the program for iPhone and Android have been developed in addition to the standard. The protocols used by the application are also constantly updated. Every day the processing of information goes faster and faster. So far, "Multifon" works only with the Windows operating system, but the developers promise to expand this list in the near future.
After this program was launched into commercial operation, it had unusual applications. For example, you can install it on your work computer or laptop. And since "Multifon" has a single account with a mobile phone, if the cell phone is forgotten at home, you can simply forward all calls to it. And if you install a 3G video camera at home, you can call it at any time through the application and find out how the children are doing. Moreover, such video calls will be free. In general, knowing how to call from a computer to a phone, users of the program will surely find more than one application for it.
Whether this application will have the same commercial success as Skype, only time will tell. However, even today, for many Megafon customers, the Multifon program is preferable, since it is cheaper and more convenient to call from a computer to a phone using it.
