I am trying to select a telecommunications system for our mid-size
company. We have narrowed it down to 3 suites. Cisco Unified
Videoconferencing, the tandberg Centric, and Polycom VSX. Is there
anybody out there that has had a bad experience or good experience with
any of these systems?

Dear George,

>From my past expirince in video conferenicing industry i would
appriciate you choosing the best brand available among the
rest...except the declaration of Polycom in your choice list. Polycom
is no longer considered to be an option available for serious VC
activity. Cisco on other hand is highly integrated to any system
available till date of any configuration and intigrity so no doubt
about its performance but still pricing is always a mandatory Query
anyone would like to workout. Tandberg is no wonder the market leader
when it comes to videconferencing and its beign in the industry since
the origin of VC technology. going with tandberg is always a sensible
way overall. There are also few more option such as Aethra and Marconi
and both seem to be strong contender for any VC requirment with its
higest level of technology updates and performance wise output makes
them my all time favorite..do check in for those newly updated VegaX
series [aethra.com] and high standardized Marconi [marconi.com]...


all the best for optimized buying..

Do you have any legacy equipment?

IP Only? ISDN?

How many sites/users are you looking to integrate?

Are you considering meeting rooms or desktop or both?

What is your relationship with your vendors? are they your IT resource
or are they a AV group? The answer will likely shed light on their
recommendations.

You can find refurbished polycoms on Ebay.
I've use the VSX 7000 and the VSX 5000
the VS4000 the 512 and 128.

I like the VSX 7000 it still has a real PTZ camera.
It still comes with the Polycom mic ( the best audio and
audio-cancelling in the business) I purchased the VSX 7000 with the
Soundstation audio bridge. This allows us to make both regular
conference call as well as video calls and bridge the calls together.

I'm going to upgrade to the Multipoint software, I wish I had purchased
that instead of the People + content. So I'm going to shell out another
$2100.00 just to enable multipoint.

My Old VS4000 came with that feature.

I use the VSX 7000 in stereo mode with the base speaker and send the
video to a Sony 40" LCD in 16:9 mode through the VGA connector.

I've connected to Tandbergs and have had no problems. I set them up for
group meetings, one on one and mutlisite.

Don't get the VSX 5000 unless your out of money.
I put as much money into lighting, tables and a blue curtain with logo
as I did on VSX 7000s with Soundstation and the 40" Sony LCD and sound
system.
