Hi Olivior,

We have recently worked on a WebRTC based agent panel. As based on my
experience I think that WebRTC based phones are far better and cheaper then
those soft / sip phone. the big plus is that they are easy to customize and
developer can use the power of browser and web to build / offer features
which are not possible with regular phones.

Regarding your concern about BLF or call history, for me as a being
developer it is just a matter of customization.

Regards
