Review on πŸ“ž Cisco IP Business Phone 8861: High-resolution Display, Gigabit Ethernet Switch, WLAN Enabled | 1Yr Warranty by Tabitha Johnson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

This phone has a lot of bells and whistles.

This phone has a lot of bells and whistles you probably won't need and one unforgivable flaw. When a call is missed, an orange icon appears on the screen. It won't go away unless you manually delete it each time. For my own line, that doesn't bother me. But I have multiple phone lines on my phone for other people (I have an expansion board) and I don't want these notifications to pop up on my screen all the time, and I don't want to manually clear them all the time! Our IT staff contacted a Cisco engineer who confirmed that this feature cannot be disabled. What was Cisco thinking? Have they even bothered to test these phones on real users?!

Pros
  • Built-in Gigabit Ethernet switch for your network and PC
Cons
  • I don't remember
