Ubiquiti VOIP phone systems

I have used both Snom and Yealink. Yealink wins hands down. Now for speaker phone my favorites are Revolabs.

Revolabs equipment is pretty ugly. . .
Can't they pretty it up a bit. . .

might be ugly but the sound quality is amazing. Both the speaker and the microphones.

@Minion-Queen that may be, but appearance is the first thing that people notice.

I actually like the Grandstream. I use the 5 GXP2140s in my office. A great PoE phone. I don't have very complex needs but the quality is great and it works. Sound quality is pretty good too.

They are Android based IIRC. They look sharp and the pricing isn't bad. I think @scottalanmiller had gotten one to test with previously?
Want one, but have not acquired one yet. They look super cool, though.

Yeah I think he did but didn't like them. Scott prefers Sangoma and Snom if I remember correctly.
Our experience with Grandstream is that they were insanely cheap and worked okay and died often. If you need something that is going to get beat up and won't last long anyway or is super likely to be stolen, they are great. But over time, you don't save money and they are very obviously a cheaper phone. So it's not like they were "bad", but once Yealink got withing 20% of their price, their point was really gone.

How long ago was that? I have 65 of them working great right now.....

With T56 series here the 48s dropped down to $170 range, everything else has gotten even cheaper.
The t56a is the cost that Yealink 48s was a month ago, and it is android. About $199.
I got Ubiquiti phones in to test and have updated them a couple times. At last pass they still couldn't park or use BLF reliably.
I can't imagine leaving Yealink.
