Has anyone tried mumble?

[mrwalder]

I am thinking of running mumble on my server instead of teamspeak as it uses less resources and NZ upload speeds are pretty appalling, Has anyone tried it and what are your opinions?

I ran a Mumble server for a while. On the server side, it has excellent quality and lower latency than Teamspeak or Ventrilo, but can consume more bandwidth -- all depending on how you set it up, of course. I never admin a TS or Vent server so I can't really make a comparison between the server feature set, but I never found anything lacking in Mumble at least with a small group of friends using the voice chat.
The client seems to be harder for end users to set up and get working well -- whereas TS and Vent mostly work "out of the box", Mumble requires quite a bit more configuration.

Maybe I will just look at ts or vent, thanks

I use Mumble exclusively, both admin and user. I find it to be strictly superior to TS or Vent, but YMMV.
