From what I've heard, none of them are great applications.
You might try calling your phone company's business services
office to see if they have any recommendations.
Look on
www.techtv.com for your question, they have done
some testing and reported on this on two different shows The
Screensavers and Call For Help (recently cancelled, but the
archive should still be up.)
You might look at
www.sourceforge.net to see if they have
some open source telephone programs. Also, look at
www.pcworld.com for reviews and downloads.
Good luck
