What is Ventrilo?

Many people have never heard of Ventrilo. Ventrilo is a voice chat software that allows users to communicate through the internet. It is often used by people who play video games, to allow them to talk with other gamers, while playing.

Taken from the Ventrilo.com site:
Ventrilo 3.0.0 is the next evolutionary step of Voice over IP (VoIP) group communications software. Ventrilo is also the industry standard by which all others measure themselves as they attempt to imitate its features.

Ventrilo is best known for it's superior sound quality and minimal use of CPU resources so as not to interfere with day to day operations of the computer or during online game competitions. It is also preferred for the simple user interface that any first time computer user can very quickly learn because the most commonly used features are immediately visible and can be activated with a single click of the mouse.


If you would like to use Ventrilo, first download the software from ventrilo.com then get a Ventrilo Server.
