What is sipgate softphone?

It is used by individuals and teams who want to handle office telephony from a Mac instead of a desk phone. The app supports everyday calling workflows on a computer, including use with a headset and call handling from the desktop. sipgate also offers browser-based access, but the desktop app is intended for users who want a dedicated calling experience on macOS.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This is legitimate business calling software. Microphone access is normal for a softphone, and desktop notifications or launch-at-login behavior may be used so you can notice and answer calls promptly. Because it handles voice communication, call-related account data and contact details may be visible inside the app. Keep it only if you use sipgate, and review microphone and notification permissions in macOS if you want tighter privacy control.
Recommendation: Keep sipgate softphone if you use sipgate for work or personal telephony on your Mac. If you no longer use that service, you can remove the app to free space and reduce background activity, but doing so will stop desktop calling and related notifications.
