This little voice conference unit provides absolutely first class call qualities - I am told the microphone works extremely well even some way from the unit, and the quality of sound is pretty much identical to the caller being in the room with you.It is super easy to set up - just plug it into a USB port.So why only 4 stars? Because the unit is apparently permanently fixed so that its controls only work in conjunction with Microsoft Lync. It will of course also work with Skype, provided you use Skype's on-screen controls, and no doubt anything else that can be piped to a microphone and speaker. This sounds like a commercial decision rather than a technical one - the version hooked into Skype is currently more expensive than the Lync one,

I wanted a small speakerphone unit to travel with my Surface Pro 2 device - although the built-in speakers/microphones are fine on the Surface, they don't work well brilliantly when trying to involve an entire meeting room in a conference call.As per the other reviews, the on/off-hook buttons are specific to Lync (and OCS), but the volume up/down and mute buttons work fine with any application. Indeed, I've been able to host great conference calls in a reasonably large meeting room via Skype.Another perk is that the Polycom CX100 is recognised as a full speaker/microphone set. I've been able to record audio directly into OneNote - great for capturing the audio in meetings for future reference.Sound quality is great - I've had no complaints about the audio from my side,

I needed a desk top speakerphone for my Cisco soft phone as was spending hours in calls with a headset. after a bit of research settled on this one. Although it does say it is optimised for Lync it will work with the Cisco communicator soft phone too. I had a bit of hassle setting it up, but seems much if that was down to me plugging it into a USB hub rather than direct to the laptop.. Once direct connected it worked fine with windows 7. Comes with a nice case and the cable stores in the back of the unit itself too. Not cheap, but for me it does what I wanted and expect it to last...

Vastly superior performance compared with my laptop built-in microphone and speaker. Two handy features make this stand out: firstly the USB cable neatly folds into the back of the product making it very easy to slip into a brief case, or even a pocket. Second, there is a clear easy-to-use mute button. This was a real boon as using the screen-based mute button on Skype for example can be awkward during conversations. Further, it auto-installed in seconds on my Windows 7 laptop.

If you use MOC and you work from home this device is a must have. Wearing headphones all day long is no fun - and now I no longer have to do so. This device is solidly made and feels "quality". The sound is excellent, and it works seamlessly with MOC and Livemeeting - but don't buy it if you want to use it with anything else - it won't double up as a speaker.

This is a great bit of kit if you regularly use MS lync or office communicator. I am home office based and its like having your own conference facilities in my humble office. I also travel a lot on projects and this is great for those basic meeting rooms that you are shoved in as a group so you can have a group call in this small package.

The CX100 works very nicely with MS Lync or Communicator. Simple to install - plug and go, no messy driver downloads. The only sad thing: Lync is a bandwidth hog. Even on hard wired 100Mb ethernet (nevermind wifi) audio quality can be poor and slips into 'robotic' sounding. This is not the fault of the CX100: it's Lync.

I bought this for work conference calls using Lync. The polygon CX100 unit is every bit as clear as my polycom desktop phone. Great microphone pick up and brilliant speaker. Also has a headphone socket. Easy to install as plug and play, and the portable case and cable tidy is very neat. One of my better investments

Required speakerphone for conference calls using Microsoft Lync. Had experience of a similar unit working effectively for this purpose.This unit is easy to use and works perfectly providing excellent audio capabilities. Certainly recommend as an effective, compact unit which delivers good audio communication.

Does exactly what I wanted it to do. Fantastic to be able to mute/unmute without having to find the right window. Microphones are good and sensitive and is very useful when used with several people in a meeting room.

Easy to install device that increases efficiency when working with Office Communicator. When hosting concalls with a lot of partcipants I do plug in a headset to loose the background noice! Worthwhile the money!

I use this with Lync / Skype on a variety of laptops. It has always worked with no set up needed. Sound quality is good. I have used it in meetings of up to 10 people with no problems.
