Cisco IP Phones vs. OnSIP

We have found so many use cases for Cisco IP Phones and have not come across too many situations where they were not well suited, other than being mobile. We have moved to another Cisco Solution for Mobile communications. We have phones all over the place, in offices, in clinical areas, in lobby or public areas, and even in all of our conferencing and meeting spaces.

I think OnSIP is well suited to be used in any organization that has a stable, reliable internet connection. The service is top notch and I haven't found a competitor that can beat the service. I've recommended the service to other manufacturing businesses and churches. The organizations that have switched have been extremely pleased with the service.

• So while the 6800 range may not offer slick features, it still provides all the core functionality that businesses have come to expect from their VoIP handsets.
• Most of the handsets that make up the 6800 series do come with a greyscale display, which may be disappointing if employees are used to working with color VoIP solutions.

• Accept more phone brands/models
• Make your website easier to use
• Make provisioning a new phone easier

i think it's profitable and a good return on investment as a person who make an architecture based on VOIP with IP phones i really enjoyed the process of configuration of the router , the switch and everything and then when i had to test the communication between two phones I've configured it was a joy. Also it's a good phone to receive and give calls to our clients.

Easy to use Functions are self-explanatory Light Efficient I generally have no complaints about them as they get the job done. Just a few employments on maybe graphics or so otherwise they are really great 👍 no complaints... Maybe it is just because is just a user and doesn't implement them or something.

Cisco support for me has always been my biggest issue with Cisco. It is very difficult to open a ticket without having your support contact info updated on Cisco Portal, which in most cases, is dependent on resellers getting this done in a timely manner.

The 8800 series phone is lighter and has a better build quality with all except the flagship phones from Yealink, Mitel, and Avaya. The Yealink S59 and Avaya Vantage have a touch screen interface the make them more akin to the old DX650 which is more high-end than the 8800 currently.

We have found OnSIP to be just as good if not better than any of the other services we have researched or used. Once again, the value of OnSIP is unbelievable. Our rates at this organization are less than half of what the competitors were charging. I don't see us changing anytime soon.

• I set up the desk for new hires in our group - it is super easy to plug in this phone and have them up and running.
• Having the ability to pre-program speed dial numbers ensures that new hires are able to reach help without having to search for a number.
• The ability to program ring tones is great, so if we are in the shared space meeting and we hear a phone ring, we know who's phone is ringing - the meeting can go on without everyone leaving to check.

• It has reduced our telecom expenses drastically.
