Hi Kumar,

I recommend you the Eyebeam.
Maybe you don't have the softphone well configured for presence,
On the Presence Tab you have to choose "Presence Agent" for "Mode".
On the Storage Tab you have to choose "XCAP" for "Storage Method" and
enter your xcap server (e.g. http://<ip-address>:8080/xcap-root/) for
"Root URL"

Regards,
Toni
