Next level productivity tool Cisco Headsets are a great asset

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In my organization, Cisco Headsets play a major role by allowing flexibility and mobility for my front desk co-workers, roles as receptionists, sales teams, NOC engineers, and warehouse staff are experiencing all the benefits using models such as Cisco Headsets 720 and 730. These models are capable of delivering high-quality audio while providing comfort and offering a long-lasting battery. Many of these areas no longer need to be configured to forward calls from their deskphone to their cellphones every time they leave the desk for some reason. This has fixed the problem of missing calls and reduced costs with PSTN calls.

Pros

  • High-quality audio
  • Ease to setup the connection with bluetooth devices
  • The battery life is really good

Cons

  • The cushion materials are good, but they could use some improviment.
  • The ANC of 700 series is good, but some times is not enough.

Return on Investment

  • Reducing PSTN calls originated by deskphones that had Call Forward all setup.
  • Areas such as warehouse and front desk had thei productivity increased.
  • Front desk staff are happy since they stop to missing customer calls.

Alternatives Considered

Cisco IP Phones, Cisco 4000 Series Integrated Services Routers (ISR 4000) and Webex App
