Grandstream and Yealink are both great. Polycoms are good also, but are way over priced in today's market. I only use PolyCom for Conference phones.

Have you seen the new Yealink CP960 phones. Those things are pretty niffty. . . and very well priced when compared to polycom's comparable models.

Yes, I saw those. I'd like to get one to try it out. Those run Android. The last Android based desktop phone I tried (a Ubiquiti phone) was totally useless. It was purely eye candy. However, I'm not blaming that on Android.

Don't the Polycom Trio line also use an Android OS?

Ok thanks for the info everyone. Seems Yealink is the consensus here. Ill see what meets the budget. Also learned a bit from the other discussions lol. Interesting how that works

Yealink has a wide range of devices, so make sure you're considering what is required in terms of functionality. Before you start asking for a budget.

@dustinb3403 Understood and thanks. I was planning on that I just didn't type it.

My personal order of preference is

Yealink

Sangoma

Grandstream

I'm about the same, but Snom rather than Grandstream. Used GS a while ago and they were fine, but not great. I wouldn't avoid them, certainly, but they don't make my top three.

Just curious, how long ago was that?

Oh it has been quite a while. Many years.

GS has come a long way since even a year ago.

They are always upgrading their models it seems. But I was referring to their firmware. The firmware improves with each release, and adds stuff that should have been there in the first place, as well as bug fixes as usual.
