I'd go with Polycom all the way. We have a number of different types of phones in use, or that we've worked with, including Grandstream, SIpura and Atacom, and the quality difference with the Polycom phones is astounding.

<br>> We have a client that needs to setup about 80 desk phones (about 50<br>> in one location and about another 30 in 5 different locations). Which<br>> brand/model would you recommend. We were personally thinking in
