I concur,
We run about 50 7960's and they work quite well. Sound quality is pretty
good. Like Aaron said, unless you're running call manager you can't
program soft keys, etc. We're looking at going to a different phone
that would give us some more customization options. Also.. Cisco's come
with skinny firmware. You'd have to acquire the SIP firmware from
somewhere. And NO cisco will NOT 'give' it to you
If you need some, I have some for sale! :) :)
That and Cisco won't give you the time of day if you don't use their
stuff ;)
We have about 1600 of the Cisco's on campus, and unless you run them on
the call manager, you're not gonna have nearly as many features as any
other phone that's designed with SIP in mind. That said, if you need a
phone with dialtone, a pretty screen, and limited xml services, then I
will say that the cisco's are extremely easy to provision once you
figure out the upgrade paths.
(Oh, and we're running 7940's and 7960's... if you're looking at the
7912's, etc, good luck, they're a _complete_ pain to work with)

I think one of the differences is: We do pay attention to Asterisk and this

Betreff: [asterisk-users] Snom or Cisco Phones?
Hello
I need to buy IP Phones to work with Asterisk, and I'm in doubt between Snom
and Cisco Phones.
Can you gurus, please, give me your impression of these 2 brands? I need to
focus more in SIP and Asterisk compatibility and less in pricing (yes, I know
the Cisco are more expensive).
Are there any features that Snom has, that Cisco doesnt? And are these features
important?
Thanks
Joao Pereira
