Conference phones Updated December 14, 2005 When your business has been around for a while, you know the importance of good communication. But you put this in jeopardy if your conferencing system isn't up to par--no client wants to hear echoing and feedback garbling your great ideas. If you're using the same setup that you've had since the start-up years, chances are there's a more up-to-date system that offers clearer communication. Whether your thriving company has one huge conference room, several small ones, or a couple of each, you're sure to find a suitable phone on this list. There are even some wireless options that can be moved easily from room to room. |

| Review summary | If you're looking for a reliable audio solution for your conference room, start with Polycom's SoundStation2 EX. | The Polycom SoundStation Premier provides decent sound for a small to medium-size conference room. | When it comes to cordless conferencing, the Max Wireless offers good bang for your buck. | ClearOne's Max EX is a good choice for businesses that require a flexible conference-phone system that can grow along with their company, but it lacks certain features we expect from this class. | If you have a small to medium-size office and want to invest in only one conference system, the Olympia OL6010 is a solid choice. |
