Logitech GROUP is an HD video conferencing solution designed for meetings of up to 14 people, with optional expansion mics to extend to meetings of up to 20 people. Components include the camera, speakerphone, hub, remote, wall/table mount, and expansion microphones. The system plugs into the user's computer via USB to provide the audio and video components for meetings run on the user's web conferencing software.
Cisco Headset 700 is well suited for professionals who do remote interaction with customers and clients on a daily basis. This device helps them provide top-notch sound quality, great noise cancellation, security and great compatibility with large set of devices. Superior noise cancellation and compatibility is important specially in an open workplace where many co-workers are speaking and the resulting noise causes lack of focus. Additionally, given its decent battery life and quick-charge feature, it can be used for over 20 hours which is a desirable. It is not very appropriate for professionals for whom, calling or remote interaction is not a very necessary part of the job. In such cases, if they use the Headset rarely and don't care too much about quality and security, there are other cheaper alternatives.
When you don´t have enough budget to have a robust conference system, this solution can help you to have good quality video conferences with excellent audio quality and video quality, and the prices of these products are not so high comparing with other brands, I think is a perfect solution for mid enterprises
In crowded environments, very clean and clear communication can be provided for both the person using the headset and the other party with the noise-canceling mechanisms.
Smart Sensor Technology (Mute When You Remove Headphones) is a nice feature in my opinion.
More importantly, it has over 15 hours of talk time. Battery life is very good.
Bluetooth connection - sometimes takes 1-2 times to connect properly.
Receiving multiple calls - sometimes when I am on Webex and receive a call, it disconnects or when I decline the call, it loses the Webex connectivity.
Disconnecting multiple devices using - when I disconnect my phone from it, it will lose connection from my laptop as well.
I have yet to find a use case where the 730 is not appropriate. The audio quality and active noise cancellation capabilities are excellent, and the portability puts it above many alternatives.
Too expensive and too heavy and too uncomfortable. It just didn't deliver the experience that we thought we would get based on the price. I can get the same features, for cheaper, with a more comfortable headset from another vendor. So overall this one just never got put on the final list.
I think the technical support of Logitech GROUP is well when you have an issue you can call them. They answer you quickly, we only use this support a couple of times, because we don´t have many problems with these devices, the performance of these devices is outstanding.
I regularly try out new headsets but I tend to stick with what works best. My three top headsets are: 1) Jabra Evolve 75 - This has a boom mic [that automatically] mutes when lifted - Great feature when on regular calls! ANC works very [well.] Similar to the Cisco headset this doesn't have over-the-ear cups but the ANC works slightly better than the Cisco unit. 2) Jabra Evolve 85 - This is an over-the-ear model which has [superb] ANC. Also extremely comfortable with a well-designed desktop charger and [a] sleek boom mic that folds away into the right-hand ear cup. One thing to note with this headset compared to the Evolve 75 and Cisco is that it takes a while to get used to not being able to hear yourself when ANC is on. Once you get [past] that, you do feel like you're in a different and completely isolated space. Very little ambient noise gets in. 3) Cisco 700 series
We selected Logitech GROUP because the balance cost-benefit was excellent comparing with other vendors. We tried some devices before the purchase, and we discovered that the quality of these devices is excellent, the solutions are easy to handle for end users that don´t have technical skills in general terms is a good cheap solution.
