TrueConf Server allows to make calls from client applications to H.323-endpoints, as well as invite them to multipoint conferences.
The number of H.323 connections in the full version of the server is limited according to the license terms (5 or 10 connections are permitted in a conference).
The free version TrueConf Server Free is limited to one H.323 connection (whether it is a group conference or a 1-on-1 video call).
