Cisco Room Phone vs. Crestron Mercury

Good scenario: Medium rooms with requires a good coverage of sound where people are located 3 meters far from the device works very good. Less appropriate: areas where using wired extension microphone are no allowed. This is could be a challenge if you have a table without holes to pass cabling through.

It is well suited for small to medium sized conference room where video calls with your own device can be utilized. The Mercury essentially allows you to use any communication platform that you currently are using on your own devices. Works well as a stand alone speaker phone as well

We have not had any issues with the device, but expect support to be as good as Cisco always has been for us.

I've use a lot of the Webex Room devices and the Room Phone is a great transition for the traditional conference phone to a modern UI and platform with Control Hub integration. Like all the other major OS platforms out there, the push to unify the user interface has some real advantages and I think that Cisco is accomplishing that goal here.

The Poly can use any video platform, but you have to pick only one. You do not have the ability to BYOD and use a different platform. Both the camera unit and the controller are connected to your network separately and sometime come un-paired and will not "speak" to each other and must be reset
