Firstly from well suited:
I have implemented Codec Device and Room Kit Pro in governmental place and it suited very well. It was again on Prem solution working with Cisco Meeting Servers and different countries were connected to the meeting. Network quality was perfect and Video quality voice quality were above the great. Everybody asked about the device which we were using after the call. Mainly the IT guys.

For not so well experience I can say the place where we used Board Pro 55 but we have faced with the microphone problems. For the solutions we used wired Cisco SX20 devices microphones it solved the problem. But Board pro 55 itself made our experience little bit bad.

Immersive and productive video conferencing experience. The hardware is easy to set up and use, and provides a seamless, integrated experience for video conferencing, screen sharing, and content sharing. The systems support both wired and wireless connections and are compatible with a variety of collaboration tools and platforms. It is less appropriate where people use this device only for passthrough functionality.

Cisco Room Series Review

So with our current setups, it's quite hard to do really large groups as well as having lots of individuals and having everyone still feel like they're part of it. It tends to just fall to whoever you can see on the screen at the time and then the mass in the room. But things where it does work really well is we run regular, I suppose, business-wide updates, we call them town halls, and being able to have everyone connect easily no matter where they are in Australia just to be a part of it.

During product presentations where we can be on one screen as well on the other side where the client or customer is also on one screen as if we are doing face to face meetings. The clarity of the audio is also superb, and no need for any noise cancellation headsets or sometimes the use of in-ear monitors.

When we were acting as a training department for onboarding our colleagues, we utilized the Cisco Room Series to conduct webinars. The high-quality video and audio, paired with content-sharing capabilities, ensured our onboardees received a comprehensive, interactive learning experience, regardless of their physical location, such as if they were connecting from home instead of the office.

I would not use a Cisco Room Series device on a really small environment, or, obviously, on a Desk (but, before the Desk Series were available, there wasn't really a Cisco alternative), so I would go for the correct Cisco Room Series device for meeting rooms with a capacity of 5 people or more. For anything smaller than that, I would choose a Desk Series device.

For multinational corporations such as ours, the Cisco Room Series allows for seamless high-definition video conferencing, connecting boardrooms worldwide. This ensures clear communication, cultivates team unity across branches, and facilitates timely decision-making without the cost and time of international travel, where we can save and also increase efficiency as much as possible.

The room kit plus are suitable for large rooms as they cover the required audio and video needs. However, it is difficult to integrate them in auditoriums since the physical ports are not enough for the integrations.

The Cisco Webex Room Kit has a higher quality meeting experience than other similar products, especially with audio and video. There is a USB passthrough and the upcoming support allowing the device to be a fully functional MS Teams Rooms device. I like that there is a lot of customization and analytics available via Control Hub.

If there is a collaboration space, there is a Room Kit solution that is appropriate. From the Room Kit Phone that is conference table sized and enables audio-only screen sharing capabilities on an existing display to the Room Kit Pro with multiple ceiling mics and the Presenter Camera for the back of the room, there isn't a better picture or clearer audio.

The Webex Room Series is well suited for any company utilizing Cisco products and services. It interacts well either in the cloud or registered on prem and brings a lot of options to users as how to display content or video inside a meeting. It is not appropriate for very large training rooms or very small rooms where excess noise can be disruptive.

Totally appropriate in offices or meeting rooms where there are directors and perfect audio and image are needed, obviously good bandwidth and network quality are also required. I do not recommend it in schools or small offices since there are teams that for a third of its cost do very interesting things and with a very good performance. I think that if it were more accessible in terms of cost and licensing, we could find one of these in any meeting room.

Large boardrooms and conference halls can benefit from the Cisco Webex Room Series. It could be overkill for huddle rooms, but the board, mini, and USB devices in the Room series can meet those requirements. However, where it really excels is in interoperability, as both Zoom and Microsoft Teams are more closed and designed to lock in customers for one particular provider.

It is well suited for large conference rooms and board rooms. It is probably overkilled for huddle rooms however the smaller Room series devices like the board, mini, and USB can address those needs. Where it shines though is the interop as Zoom and MS Teams are more proprietary and aim at vendor lock-in.

Suites well - Easy to configure, good camera quality, best speaker system inbuilt, Clear Mic. Best used in travel. Easy to carry. Less Appropriate - Only the Camera should be connected via USB. The device can be used with external ApplicationSpeaker tracking should be available with a basic model. Works only when LIC is available.

They are well suited in conference/meeting rooms, easy to use with the tabletop touch panel, and to share content via HDMI inputs. Our users are very comfortable with them and prefer them over other manufacturers (ie: MS Teams systems) due to fewer points of failure and not many components involved from the table to the video system.

For any customer support or assistance, Cisco Webex Room Series is hands down the best tool to use. If a customer needs assistance on configuration for a new device, the way to go is CWRS. Anyhow for social meetings or anything not work-related it would not be the first choice, even though it is a pretty capable software for this kind of situation, simpler or popular software are preferred.
