Xnet Communications, Inc. is an independent technology center whose core business is the creation of high-end solutions for data communications.

Megafon enables users to talk with other Megafon users for free. However, Megafon is designed to communicate with all devices on all platforms that use VoIP, not just Macs. Megafon users can also call mobile phones, land lines and more, and they can receive calls from normal telephones as well.
The users can also create private telephone networks by using the option to add multiple Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) service providers. It also supports Virtual Private Network (VPN) software, for secure remote connections to a corporate network.
Megafon is offered as a Universal binary application that runs natively on Intel and PowerPC-based Macs.
