Menudex is the application that sits in your system tray and can then be used to quickly locate your Outlook contacts and either, dial, SMS, Skype, or email them.
Menudex does not have its own internal dialler and that is where PhonerLite comes in.
Menudex places all Outlook contacts in a series of menus (A to Z) as well as menus for companies, Recent, and Frequent. Using these menus finding your contacts is a breeze and calling them is instant when used with PhonerLite.
PhonerLite is a softphone that can call contacts over the internet using VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol).
