“The most positive highlight of this purchase is the Bluetooth function - I can walk around the house while talking to clients.
On the downside: it gave me huge issues of compatibility to access my laptop's softphone... It's also so good at blocking out external sounds that I can BARELY HEAR my OWN voice while I talk to clients!! I regret spending this much money - I bet a less expensive model would have done a better job... I don't recommend it.
And usually, sales people discuss alternative options before you make a purchase, but mine just processed the order and that was it.”
Hi Emmanuelle,
Sorry to hear you had issues with compatibility to your softphone.
Headsets are compatible as audio devices with all softphones however some softphone brands do require extra plug ins, software or just may not give full functionality with headsets. Its normally the ability to answer/end calls or adjust volume that are affected in these circumstances.
If ever in doubt feel free to give us a call prior to purchase to check out your softphones compatibility.
If you dont already have it, its worth downloading poly lens either on your computer or mobile phone. This will give you the ability to adjust sidetone in your headset which will help with hearing your own voice.
