Yealink Conference Phones are well-suited for small to large-sized businesses. It provides excellent call quality in an easy-to-use interface which makes it perfect for any type of office or conference room. It does require power-over-ethernet, so you will require either a network switch with PoE or a separate adapter that will provide power to the phone.

Yealink Conference Phones 7.0

Based on 2 answers

I have only had to contact Yealink once in the entire time we have been using their phones. The issue was resolved quickly and did not impact our day-to-day business. Their website provides excellent support; user manuals are available, as well as firmware upgrades that you are able to download and install.

We have used Aastra and Grandstream phones as well. The build quality and overall ease-of-use was not as good as the Yealink Conference Phones. Yealink simply works and does not require technical knowledge after it has been set up. The other phones needed more frequent reboots and configurations to get them to work properly.
