Linphone als Linux-Alternative zu Zoom
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Linphone can replace Zoom for users who need basic HD video/audio calls, screen sharing, and simple chat, especially in environments that prefer open‑source software and SIP‑based infrastructure. It works well for small teams, developers, or anyone comfortable configuring SIP accounts and NAT traversal. However, it lacks Zoom's large‑scale meeting management, built‑in webinar tools, integrated cloud recording, and extensive file‑sharing ecosystem, so it is not a drop‑in substitute for enterprises that rely on those features.

Was gleich funktioniert

- Chat messaging during calls
Was anders ist
- No native support for webinars or large‑scale meetings (Zoom handles hundreds of participants)

- User management, breakout rooms, and polling are missing
- Relies on SIP providers; Zoom provides its own managed service
Ihre Zoom-Dateien öffnen
Zoom recordings are stored in proprietary MP4 containers with optional Zoom‑specific metadata. Linphone cannot open or export those files directly; you would need to use a generic video player or conversion tool to view them. There is no built‑in import of Zoom chat logs or shared files.

Linphone unter Linux installieren
sudo apt install linphonesudo apt install linphoneHäufige Fragen
Can Linphone handle meetings with more than 20 participants?
It can technically connect many participants, but performance and UI become unwieldy; Zoom is more suited for large groups.
Is there a cloud‑recording option in Linphone?
No, Linphone only offers local recording; you would need to capture the screen or use third‑party tools for cloud storage.
Do I need a separate SIP server to use Linphone?
You can use any public SIP provider or set up your own PBX; a server is required but not provided by Linphone itself.
