<p>I use Polycoms with all new deployments. Linksys/Cisco SPA stuff is nice too, but we stopped using them. One reason was because of Polycom's UC Firmware and the possibilities when using it. Besides that, they have a more 'polished' feel to them and the speakerphones are unbelievable, even with their entry class phones.</p>
<p>Cisco 79XX series are absolute crap. They can't be trusted, not when using SIP. Grandstream makes OK phones, probably not ready for primetime (although I dig their ATAs because they just work). Aastras have indeed some bugs that are annoying. Haven't really tried Snom well enough to give a good or bad review.</p>

The Cisco 7961 in my home office does not have a backlit LCD screen<br>
(like the Polycom IP670). Quite annoying in low light conditions so it's<br>
gathering dust.<br>

Thanks for the info.<br>
