bryan,
can it be that polycom is the best? 
  • my headset doesn't work with the 600 volume resets to default on every hangup,
  • speakerphone resets intermittenly (haven't figured out why),
  • my 301 has a speaker phone but no mic (very useful!), every config changes reboots the phone taking 60+ seconds to restart,
  • if you change 'Registration 4' *and* 'Registration 5' only the submit button you clicked on updates, the other registration remains the same... 
granted, I haven't tried the server tftpboot option, but even so, making minor changes is quite a chore...  perhaps once you hack though it and things settle out, it gets better?...

please help me in my miss-understanding of polycom, I am still looking for a good sip phone... maybe you could convince me to give them another chance?
thanks for your help.

Chris,

Having deployed every major brand of sip handset in numbers greater than 100, I can say that I recommend the Polycom product hands-down for these types of roll-outs.  Provisioning and management are superior and the product if of generally better quality than the SPA line.

If you want more details, please feel free to contact me off-list.

Thanks,

Greetings list,

Does anyone have any experiences they'd like to share deploying these phones in medium-size asterisk setups, e.g. 40+ users? I have a project coming up to deploy 100 phones over 2 offices and the client rather likes these phones. Are there any obvious pitfalls/configuration difficulties/quality issues etc. using these phones? If so, what alternatives would people suggest with a similar feature set and price range?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Chris
