Logitech MeetUp vs. Yealink Conference Phones

Smaller conference rooms with room for about 4-6 people seems to be a sweet spot for [Logitech Meetup]. They also work well in smaller rooms where people need to move around and might use a whiteboard or something similar. Once you have a longer room or anything outside of what Logitech recommends, it still works, but the quality quickly drops and you're much better off with adding the microphones or opting for one of the other systems designed for bigger rooms.

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.

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.

While the other cameras offer similar solutions, we found for the price to features, the meetup met our needs the best. With the trio, we had issues with Poly's software which the meetup gets around by being able to plug directly into a PC. The panacast, while it worked very well, we would have still needed to pair it with the rest of the equipment for a full experience. With the meetup, we have only needed the meetup, the PC, and an iPad as a controller.

We tried out the poly com and the Avaya. neither of them had clarity at higher volumes. We have some employees with impairment. the avaya was way too expensive and the polycom was just garbage
