User Testimonials
	Cisco Business Edition 6000 (discontinued)	Logitech Connect
Likelihood to Recommend	Discontinued Products Cisco Business Edition 6000 (BE6000) is well suited on small and medium sites that need entry-level voice and IP telephony capabilities, together with powerful, easy-to-use collaboration tools. However , if a single user interface or VMware servers are deal breakers for you, I suggest another call system will likely be a better fit. Jorge E. Cantillo C. Network Consulting Engineer Read full review	Logitech No answers on this topic
Pros	Discontinued Products provides phone support for many models of phones and conferencing devices provides full telephony support for pretty much any phone requirement including call centre options 911 service dialing options and tracking bundle pricing on voice, phone and server licensing Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Logitech No answers on this topic
Cons	Discontinued Products Include tools for inter-cluster migration, currently these are provided by 3rd parties Improve the software upgrade process by automating the pre-upgrade and post-upgrade checks Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Logitech No answers on this topic

Support Rating	Discontinued Products Overall, the product provides excellent value for money. Our employees may interact at the same time on the Cisco Business Edition 6000 without disrupting the conversation. We have a significant number of employees that perform the same thing with calls, texting, and presence, and none of them have an issue.

Alternatives Considered	Discontinued Products Both Mitel and [Cisco Business Edition 6000 (BE6000)] allow the benefit of virtualization. If desired you could have an entirely virtual system. Cisco handles the virtualization a little better, however Mitel MiCollab is easier to integrate presence and calls. Cisco underlying architecture seems to be a little more stable, Mitel seems to be a little more user friendly. There are pros and cons and both are good solutions.

Return on Investment	Discontinued Products Been easy to scale as our business has grown and from acquisitions Been pretty easy to maintain the software and upgrade it over its lifetime to date Software and license renewals are pretty straight forward Adding newer model hardware to the system is pretty straight forward Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Logitech No answers on this topic
