Great utility, minor driver hiccup
Once I got the drivers installed correctly on Windows 11, this worked flawlessly. It acts as a perfect telephone secretary by logging every call. I wish the initial setup guide was a bit more detailed for newer OS versions.

Never miss an important call again
I often miss calls when I am focused on deep work with headphones on. The visual pop-up from the Zipei companion ensures I never miss a client call. Setup took less than 10 minutes.

Perfect for my home office setup
This device solved my biggest workflow issue. Now when the landline rings, I see exactly who is calling on my computer screen before I pick up. The software is lightweight and doesn't slow down my system.

Good value for money
Does exactly what it says on the box. The caller ID pops up instantly. I deducted one star because the software interface looks a bit dated, but functionality-wise, it is excellent.

Essential for small business reception
We use this at our front desk to manage landline inquiries while working on the PC. Being able to type notes directly into the caller's profile during the conversation is a huge time saver. Highly recommended for professionals.
Q: Is this compatible with VoIP phones or only traditional landlines?
A: The Zipei Phone Companion is designed specifically for traditional analog landline connections (RJ11). It is not directly compatible with pure VoIP systems unless they are connected through an analog telephone adapter (ATA).
Q: Can I use this with a Mac running macOS Sonoma?
A: Yes, we support macOS, but please ensure you download the latest driver version from our official website, as older versions may not be fully optimized for Sonoma. Installation instructions are provided in the download package.
Q: Does this device record the actual audio of the calls automatically?
A: The hardware facilitates the connection, but audio recording depends on the third-party software you choose to run alongside our driver. The included basic software focuses on Caller ID display and call logging rather than audio capture.
Q: Does the device require an external power outlet?
A: No, the device is bus-powered. It draws all necessary electricity directly from your computer's USB port, so no external power adapter or wall outlet is required.
Q: What happens if I have two landline numbers coming into one jack?
A: This device supports a single line channel. If you have a dual-line service merged into one jack, the device will typically detect the primary line. For distinct management of two separate numbers, you would need two units.
