PolycomSoundstation 2 Conference Phone - Basic Entry Level

Bought to use for parents who have hearing difficulties. This works a treat! Now they can hear all phone conversations clearly.

Extremely compact with superb audio quality and better than the Polycom SoundStation 2 that it replaced (a complete end to "It's very echoey where you are!" comments from callers). One star less strictly for the lack of an LCD, it would have been useful for directory purposes, otherwise immensely happy.

It’s not working after using it for 3 monthsCANT TRUST

Well I didn't realise that this conference phone would not work with our Toshiba telephone system, however the staff in the customer services did thier utmost to help me get it up and running. We tried a different adaptor and cables and eventually got it to work. So would highly recommend buying products from this company. They are very knowledgable and helpful about their products. Oh and yes the conference phone works very well too :-)

I have started to use this conference phone daily but I wish there was a better designed alternative on the market at this price point.As someone who has to listen into remote team calls for an hour or two each day this phone does the job and the audio quality is excellent in both directions. I particularly like the no nonsense glowing red indicators when I am on mute, the unmute button is also relatively easy to hit in a hurry when I want to jump into the conversation though in a perfect product this button would be 3 times larger.So why only 3 stars?The absence of a small phonebook memory is a real problem given that the typical user will be dialing into a small set of conference access numbers and using numeric passcodes.There is no display to double check key presses during dialing.The device has poor quality electronics which means it gets warm 24 hours a day and draws 6.5 watts even when on-hook and idle. Furthermore there is a continual white noise hissing from the speaker when on-hook, I have to pull the mains plug out to stop this.

I bought this for my office and found it makes conference calls very easy and the sound quality is perfect.A must have for anyone who regularly does conference calls.

Unfortunately this phone did not work so it was returned for a refund

Excellent very good high-quality conference phone. I am using it as a normal desk phone in my fairly small office and beauty is that I just never never need to pick up a receiver and I have quality Chris telephone calls all the time. Expensive for my purposes, sheet for its intended purpose of perhaps 10 or 12 people sitting around A conference desk, but from my point of view absolutely wonderful.
