Meeting Speakerphones

In today’s hybrid work environment, meeting speakerphones are an important part of UCC, whether in large meeting rooms or remote home offices. This category, which includes both conference phones and speakerphones, is essential for clear communication. Conference phones are typically found in boardrooms and large meeting spaces, offering advanced features like multi-directional microphones and noise cancellation to facilitate group discussions. On the other hand, speakerphones are more compact and versatile, making them ideal for individual use or small huddle rooms.

Jabra currently leads the market in this category, holding the largest share despite a recent 3% decline in average prices compared to the market decline of 1%. The brand’s success can be attributed to its reputation for high-quality audio solutions that cater to both enterprise and home office markets. Jabra’s product range includes well-known models such as the Speak series which dominated the trending table this month, and which are popular for their portability and user-friendly interfaces. There is a clear difference in pricing, with conference phones having a higher average price in the region of £500 due to their advanced audio features and connectivity options.
