my vote is Jitsi as it's so far the best SIP option out there in open
source...

Twinkle is 'ubuntu only' which is great but may make things difficult
for companies who are in transiition from proprietary OS to Ubuntu (like
ours and another one I know).

We chose Jitsi to get us through the transition plus it works very well

My two bits
