After working through 6 different brands of headsets, wireless, wired and everything inbetween, from Plantronics, Sennheiser and Logitech, we finally settled on these:
They work with the new 3CX Deskphone software natively, have a little circular puck-type thing to allow you to control calls and the noise cancellation is legendary.
The provisioning process is easy peasy if you have Office 365, enable the SSO and staff can self-setup. Have just deployed to 400 users, both office-based and working from home and it was the easiest deployment I've ever done!
If you need to push out via group policy or InTune, I have some powershell and clever msiexec switches to install the new 3CX Deskphone software for all users (By default it only installs into each user's %APPDATA% folder, which is a pain).
We have been offering headsets/softphone as a deskphone alternative for over a year now and there's a definite trend swaying towards the headsets that didn't exist a while ago.
Looking for a Skype headset for use in the office that I can also listen to music on. I've seen the Jabra Evolve 40 on Amazon for £54. Anyone have any experience with it? Any other similar options I should check out? I'm looking for something reasonably compact, light and comfortable that I can hear myself in when I talk so it'll have to have some sort of USB connection I think.
It’s pricey but this is the only one that’s ever worked for me.
