Teamspeak VS Ventrilo

[Dropkickmurphys]

hey all, i have a question to ask. which do you think is better out of TS and Vent?

which is more secure? (from hacks etc...)
which gives better sound quality?

etc....

i have used them both, but i need some more opinions.

EDIT: Please give reasons for your choice! Thanks.

Used both, me and my squad prefer Vent.

Ventrilo is far better than teamspeak. Ventrilos speach codecs (is that the right term) are far better than TS. Also. While I was addicted to WoW many of my raiding guilds used Ventrilo due to its stability. And the fact that you can hear and understand alot better while on vent. Teamspeak is a quick, easy and cheap solution to voice chat issues however. But definitely Ventrilo > Teamspeak.

i find that the sound quality on Vent is horrible compared to TS, unless its just my setup...

I find TS has better sound quality as well, plus vent is annoying, at least in TS you can disable the joined/quit sounds and what not. Both programs are stable as well so for the most part it's really just a matter of preference and I hate vent, I don't really like TS either but I do think it's better.

I prefer the TS interface.

 

[vroom_skies]

Vent smokes ts.
You can turn off the alert sounds in vent.

TS seems to have better sound quality, but i only tried vent for a little while

 

[Dropkickmurphys]

i have used Vent and TS probably about the same amount of time, but i dont understand? how can vent be better sound quality? TS is more clear and easier to set up :S

and does anyone know anything about the security of the two?

I like teamspeak prolly just cuz i gots my own server lol, and also if you want a company to host ur own server im pretty sure its cheaper then vent, and also teamspeak 3 is coming out soon so yeah.

I used to use Ventrilo, and thought it was the Bee's Knees but after Trying Team Speak i thought it was much better, the User Side of the server is much more manipulateable, the Admin Part of the server is great, maintenance is so much better than the Ventrilo one with much more features and Users can Register so you know who visitis your server.

IMO Team Speak overcomes Ventrilo in all aspects.

i couldnt find any info on when it is being released.

But TS3 looks really really good, i mean immense, it says they are putting BBCode into the text to make it more manipulateable!!!

looks cool good to see they can even make great improvemnts compared to TS2, even though that program is already awesome
