How does Phone Amego compare with VonaLink ScreenPop?

Both products provide VoIP Caller ID, but they use different approaches. VonaLink ScreenPop monitors VoIP (SIP) traffic on your LAN, so is compatible with most SIP based VoIP services. In order to monitor SIP traffic, you must use an Ethernet hub (not a switch) to connect the WAN side of your VoIP adapter to the Ethernet port of the computer running the VonaLink software. Wireless connections are not supported. Phone Amego connects directly with Linksys/Sipura VoIP telephone adaptors to read call status. There are no restrictions on your network topology, but you must use one of the supported telephone adapters. VonaLink ScreenPop can block calls based on the calling number. Google Voice and other VoIP services now provide call blocking as well. VonaLink SoloRecord can record your VoIP calls. Google Voice provides call recording as well (for incoming calls).
