Nick,
Thanks this is exactly what I am looking for. Yealink seems to be the up and
comer. How is their support? Their documentation and release notes look like a
joke, so I am a little concerned. There doesn't seem to be much version
tracking on bug fix numbering like Polycom is known for.
Is there a reason to use the old Polycom IP line since the VVX series has
replaced it?
Quite the opposite. Software development of the older SoundPoint models has
ceased. The VVX series are still undergoing active development, so they will be
more supportable over time.
The Grandstream GXP2140 looks like one hell of a deal for under $100 including
24BLF keys, but it looks like it looks like it has a paper insert for the BLFs.
In todays world with ever changing add moves drops do you really think paper
labels are even a viable option? Seems like a nightmare to me.

In the following order.
1. Yealink, (T41P, T46G, T48G) Easy to configure. Easy to upgrade. Just works.
No real bugs that I've found.
2. Polycom, (IP330, 550, 650..etc) Just works. Not as easy to configure. Has a
few oddities. But once it's up. It's pretty solid.
3. Grandstream. (GXP2140) Haven't had much seat time with them. But they might
unseat polycom from the number two spot. Easy to upgrade/configure like the
yealink. Just stay away from the android based ones. I've had some real issues
with those.
Used with Asterisk, Mostly in a hosted PBX environment. I really like the easy
of using more advanced features in the yealink, Like multicast paging. BLF is
super simple..etc.
I will say though. I've got two Polycom IP650's in use at a local pizza place.
Phones have queues on them for when customers call in. And are really put
through hell. Hundreds of calls a day. Absolutely covered in flour and pizza.
(The phone handsets are physically shiny now it's been handled so much). And it
just keeps chugging (knock on wood).

Subject: [VoiceOps] What is your favorite line of IP Phones and Why? What is
your favorite line of IP phones and why? What PBX or softswitch do you use
these line of phones with? I would love to hear responses for both Hosted PBX
applications, and On-Prem PBX applications.
Is there any reason or need to use non IP phones in todays environment? I know
NEC, Avya, and others make multiple digital non SIP phone systems.
