User reviews

If you use quill or any programs which allow a user to enter HTML into the DOM be sure to disable zulu from running on these tags. Zulu mixed with components like these can cause the following - 1) Infinite change detection which will crash your website. 2) The user will very likely save the HTML zulu modifies.

Oh my... we love our PBXact phone system and now we can easily dial our phones or make a call through the computer just by right-clicking on a telephone number and dial... The toolbar dropdown that detects and displays phone numbers on a page needs a bit of work as it is slow to refresh. HOWEVER - Clicking on a phone number anywhere on a page and then dial is not delayed whatsoever and works PERFECTLY. So, the dropdown issue has not been a big deal for my staff at all. We are very happy to have this tool - Thanks Sangoma.
