Jabra Perform 45 Bluetooth Headset Review
Jan 21, 202300:13:56Tap to summarizeWelcome to this episode of the Headset Advisor Tech Review Podcast, where you'll find out what makes the new Jabra Perform 45 and unique, and more convenient alternative to using a standard walkie talkie.When you listen, you'll find out the details on its greater wireless range, a good idea as to how much it weighs (which isn't much), how much battery life you'll get, and of course how much it costs because everyone wants to know that. And if you listen to the end, you'll get a couple of ideas on how you can score discounts.This episode is narrated by Doug Merritt, the Foundere and CEO of Headset Advisor.If you work in a retail shop, or in a busy warehouse, chances are, there's internal, two way communications taking place. Odds are, that communication is being done through the use of a walkie talkie, or something similar to that. Even though walkie talkies have been used for decades, there are some downsides to using them. Among them include their single purpose design. They're not designed, for example, to be used with phone communications, only direct, two way communications. The other thing is they can be cumbersome to pack around. Some walkie talkies are heavy, and they can be misplaced easily. And if that weren't enough, they typically require you to hold it, which leaves only one hand free to do other things. Fortunately, Jabra has come up with a very attractive alternative in the new Jabra Perform 45 headset.Rather than lugging a walkie talkie around, you can replace that with a tastefully designed, lightweight, great sounding headset.The Jabra Perform 45 weighs about the same as half the weight of a typical household lightbulb. Or, the same as about three tablespoons of your favorite morning coffee. When you look at it in those terms, you have to agree, that's light, and being lightweight means a lot when it comes to wearing a headset.You can not only keep in touch with your coworkers at the press of a button, but you can walk and talk up to 300 feet. Other Bluetooth headsets stop at a maximum distance of 100 feet. More range means a wider footprint for you to move around your workspace.If you don't use two way communicatins, you can download the Jabra Direct software and the walkie button can be repurposed for other commonly used features such as speed dial, mute and more.We tested the microphone for voice sound quality, and noise reduction. It excelled in both areas. We tested its ability to remove noise against the sounds of:Office noiseDogs barkingBabies cryingAnd our personal favorite, the noisy Vitamix blender testJabra states that the Perform 45 removes up to 80% of background noise. Based on our tests, I'd agree. It did a great job to remove all the different noises we threw at it. Noise reduction aside, it also sounded very crisp, clear and professional. The microphone raises up to mute when you're on a call, and it turns off coworker two way chatter when you're needing to help someone face-to-face, which Jabra calls Face2Face mode.In terms of talk time, you get 8 hours of battery life when using the Perform 45 for business call, and up to 20 hours for your two way communications. Recharging the battery takes about 140 minutes.The price is very agreeable for the quality of this product at $149.99.

Jabra Evolve2 Buds - Best Earbuds For Work
Dec 1, 202200:16:32Tap to summarizeIn this episode of the Headset Advisor Tech Review Podcast, I'll be introducing you to a brand new pair of earbuds by one of the most celebrated headset manufacturers, Jabra. Yeah, those guys, the guys who make awesome headsets for work and play, with these new earbuds being the most recent product release.Have a listen to find out if these earbuds sound good, are comfort and give good noise reduction. You'll also find out about features on these earbuds that aren't common to others such as Apple Airpods. So make sure to listen to the entire episode for all the details.This episode is narrated by Doug Merritt, the Founder, and CEO of Headset Advisor.Many people either don't want to wear traditional headsets, or they can't. Some feel it makes them look like they're taking orders at the local drive through, while others tend to get migraine headaches from wearing anything over the head.Whatever the reason, many want an alternative wearing style, and that's where earbud style headsets come in.Using earbuds for business calls isn't the greatest of all headset choices because they're typically lacking in several ways when it comes to using them in business.First, the sound quality on some earbuds aren't good enough to use on important calls. They also lack a battery that lasts long enough to get many people through a demanding work day, and then there's the common problem of not removing background noise. Who wants their callers hearing dogs barking, babies crying or coworkers celebrating? Not me.So how do these new Jabra Evolve2 Earbuds show up to save the day? Let's find out.First, these earbuds sound very good. Good enough to use on business calls? In my opinion, they do. As good as a typical boom microphone headset? Well, I'm not going that far, but as earbuds go, these are top notch.The Evolve2 earbuds give you get 8 hours of talk time, and with the portable charger, that talk time extends to 33 hours. You can use both earbuds, or just the right or left. And, when one earbud is idle, it can get recharged, and later swapped out with the one in use, which gives you unlimited talk time.Then there's the question that haunts all earbuds; background noise reduction. So how do these earbuds do to remove noise? The simple answer is not that great. We tested them against the sounds of office noise, dogs barking, babies crying, and of course our signature blender test. Basicallly, it didn't reduce any of it. But to be fair, Jabra never designed these earbuds to be noise killers. So, if these earbuds capture your interest, keep in mind the environment they'll be used in.Active Noise Cancellation (or ANC for short), and HearThrough are both standard features on these earbuds. These features aren't commonly found on earbuds, so it's nice they're included.ANC allows the earbud wearer to not be distracted by room noise because there's a button to help surpress it. You stay focused, not distracted, and more productive.HearThrough eliminates the need to remove the earbuds anytime you want to have a face-to-face conversation with someone. No more removing, and returning the headset every time you're interrupted. Less hassle, and less frustration.Use coupon code BLOG to get a nice discount on your order. Trade in your old headset to save even more. And for those who have budget challenges, we have a very affordable monthly headset lease program with headsets starting at just $2.00 per month.Reach out to us here to learn more, or get a tailored headset recommendation.

Best Work From Hom Headset 2022
Nov 28, 202200:19:15Tap to summarizeIn this episode of the Headset Advisor Tech Review Podcast, find out which headset rose to the top of my list for the best work from home headset 2022.Anyone who works from home, understands that there are unique challenges that come along with that. Everything from the sounds of babies crying, dogs barking, doorbells, landscapers all contribute towards making this a challenging place to work. Listen to find out what makes my number one pick the best of the best in 2022, and why this is one headset you really need to be using.This episode is narrated by Doug Merritt, Founder, and CEO of Headset Advisor.So, you work from home, and you have a family canine, and kids too. That, as we know, creates noise challenges and demands for your attention and a lot more. Having the right tools can help you to deal with these things, and one of those tools is a good quality, great sounding headset.Here's the headset that I feel is number one among all the availabe choices out there; the Orosound Tilde Pro.So what makes this headset any better compared to some of the more brand recognizable models? Here's why I think it's worthy of the top spot.1. Sound quality. This headset sounds noticeably better than just about any other headset we've tested to date. And, I have to say, we test a lot of headsets. So if having a headset that gives your callers a nice, deep, rich sound that's better than the rest, then the Orosound Tilde Pro is the headset for you.2. Noise Reduction. Let's be honest here, working from home can be a real challenge when it comes to dealing with all those different sounds going on in the background. The Tilde Pro does a superb job at filtering out unwanted noise. That gives your callers a better audio experience, and keeps them focused on the conversation, and not the noise going on around you.3. Active Noise Cancellation. This is a newer feature not found on all headsets. This is an electronic anti-noise feature that counteracts background sounds. The purpose of this feature is to allow you, the headset wearer, the ability to not be distracted by the sounds going on around you. And, when you're not distracted, you get more done.4. VoiceFirst. This feature allows you to have a face-to-face conversation with someone while wearing the headset, and not have to remove it to do so. Removing a headset, and placing it back on repeatededly throughout the day can get irritating. This feature eliminates the frustration.5. Battery. You get 28 hours of talk time, and 50% charge in 30 minutes. You can even continue using the Tilde Pro when it's plugged in for a recharge. That's someone most headsets can't claim.6. Modularity. The microphone can be used, or not because it's magnetically attached. It's easy to remove and attach. for business calls, use the boom mic, but for entertainment, remove it for listening, but there are several built in mics so you can still have a conversation if the boom mic is stored away. You also have the choice of oversize ear cushions, or those that go against the ear. Your choice in either case.7. Warranty. The Tilde Pro comes with a whopping 3-year warranty. That's one to two years longer than other brands. Longer warranty means longer peace of mind.To save money on a new Orosound Tilde Pro, use coupon code BLOG when checking out on our website, which is www.headsetadvisor.com.

Jabra Engage 40 - New Era Of Call Center Headsets
Nov 16, 202200:17:10Tap to summarizeIn this episode you'll find out about a new wired USB headset by Jabra. You'll find out what makes this headset among the very best for those who rely on a headset throughout the workday.Like many things, not all headsets are the same. In this episode you'll learn what makes this new headset worth your time to check out. You'll also find out how you can save some serious money if you plan on buying one.This episode is narrated by Doug Merritt, Founder and CEO of Headset Advisor.If you spend a large amount of time on the phone and you use a headset, you can appreciate a headset that's lightweight and comfortable, and one that gives you superb sound quality.Not all headsets available today can deliver in these categories:ComfortGreat voice audio qualityExcellent background noise reductionGreat voice quality, when background noise is presentWhen you read descriptive information about different headsets, you'll typically come across something that states how good the headset sounds, and it's ability to remove noise. But, just because that's something that's said, that doesn't mean it's entirely true. After all, sound quality is a bit subjective, though the degree to which a headset can remove background noise is pretty easy to determine.The new Jabra Engage 40 is a wired, USB headset that comes in these configurations;- single ear, without an inline controller- single ear, with a controller- double ear without controller- double ear with an inline controllerYou can also get these headsets that are optimized for Microsoft Teams, or the standard UC version.So what makes the new Jabra Engage 40 a must have headset?To me, it's two key things; Weight Sound quality & noise reductionThis thing weighs only 2 ounces in the mono configuration, the same as two standard sized envelopes. So if you can imagine the weight of two of these envelopes resting on the top of your head, you'll get a sense of appreciation of just how light this headset is.So why does that matter? Well, if you wear a headset all day, such as an Agent in a busy Contact Center, then how much a headset weighs is very important. So my main point number one is weight, because this thing is light.The second point is sound quality. The Jabra Engage 40 sounds fantastic. It clearly sounds every bit as good than any business grade headset, at any price point. And that's saying something really.Next is noise reduction. We put it up against office sounds, dogs barking, and our signature blender test. It passed with flying colors in all of these tests. It did a superb job at removing those noises. So, if you work from home, or in a busy office with noisy coworkers, then the Engage 40 would be a great headset for you to consider if you don't want your callers hearing all the noise around you.Your voice quality remains solid even when noise is present. That's somethng many headsets can't make claim to. Another example of superior audio with the Engage 40.In terms of pricing, it varies by model from $179.00, to $239.00. But, if you want a better price, make sure to use coupon code BLOG when checking out on our website which is www.headsetadvisor.com.You can save more if you trade in your old headsets. We also offer a very affordable monthly headset lease program with headsets starting at just $2.00 per month, and it includes replacement accessories, and a warranty that doesn't expire.So, to learn more about any of our programs, to get answers to your questions, or to receive a tailored, compatible product solution contact us here.

Jabra Evolve2 65 Vs Evolve2 75 Comparison
Nov 10, 202200:14:47Tap to summarizeHave a listen to this Podcast to learn about how two highly popular Jabra Bluetooth headsets compare; the Jabra Evolve2 65 vs. the Evolve2 75. There are differences that go beyond the price, so have a listen to find out what they have in common, and what makes them different.And if you listen to the entire episode, you'll get some tips on how you can save money when purchasing either, or both of these models. Even if your budget is tight, I let you know of a way that can allow you to provide new headsets to your team for far less than you can imagine.This episode is narrated by Doug Merritt, Founder and CEO of Headset Advisor.Bluetooth headsets are very popular in part due to the increased use of computers for carrying out our daily business communications.We've all heard of applications like Microsoft Teams, Zoom, RingCentral, Cisco WebEx, Google Meet and the list goes on. One thing in common with all of these applications is headsets are typically used. So, when you want to communicate with coworkers or customers, having a great sounding, comfortable, reliable headset is highly important. And that's where the Evolve2 65, and Evolve2 75 comes in.Battery. Battery strength can be broken down into these categories; talk time, listening time and recharge time. So, let's take a quick look at that.Evolve2 65 Listening time: Up to 37 hoursEvolve2 75 Listening time: Up to 36 hours (w/o ANC on) 33 hours if ANC is onEvolve2 65 35 hours talk time (w/o busy light on), 24 if onEvolve2 75 24 hours (w/o busy light on), 18 if onTo Recharge: Evolve2 65 takes 90 minutes. The Evolve2 75 takes 160 minutes30 minutes on the charger gives the Evolve2 65 40% charge. After 35 minutes on the charger the Evolve2 75 gives you only 30%. After an hour on the charger, the 65 gives you 80%, and after an hour and 10 minutes, the 75 gives you 60%. (Advantage Evolve2 65)By the way, both headsets allow you to continue using them even when they're plugged in for recharging. This is something that you don't find on all headsets.Microphones. The Evolve2 65 has three digital MEMS noise canceling mics, whereas the 75 has 8 (4 digital, 4 analog). Four of the mics are used for the Active Noise Cancelation feature, and HearThrough that's found on the Evolve2 75, but not on the 65. The bottom line when it comes to mics though is sound quality; how they sound, and how well they reduce unwanted noise. Sound quality is subjective, but I prefer the sound and noise reduction on the Evolve2 65.ANC/HearThrough. These are features found on the 75, and not on the 65. Active noise cancelation allows the person wearing the headset to not be distracted by background noise. ANC is an "anti-noise" feature that allows you to stay focused. HearThrough lets you keep the headset on when you want to have a face to face conversation. No need to take it off.Speakers. Both headsets share the same 40mm speakers. For business grade headsets, they both sound very good. Not Bose or Sony level, but superb for a business oriented headset.Wireless range. Both headsets are rated up to 30 meters/100 feet. Standard for Bluetooth headsetes these days.Weight. The mono 65 is in the 3 ounce category, whereas the duo headsets (65 & 75) are in the 6. Standard weight for these kinds of headsets.Price. Evolve 2 65 mono: $263.00, duo: $274.00. Evolve2 75 duo: $384.002 year warrantyUse coupon code BLOG to get a better price. Trade in old headsets to save even more. If the budget is tight, we have an affordable headset lease program starting at $2.00/mo. Questions: www.headsetadvisor.com

Best Sidetone Headset Under $100.00
Oct 29, 202200:15:57Tap to summarizeIn this episode of the Headset Advisor Tech Review Podcast, you'll find out about a very affordable, wired USB headset, that sounds great, is comfortable, and gives you the ability to activate sidetone with the press of a button. No download required, so your IT Department will like that.If you listen to the entire episode, you'll find out the make and model, and you'll also find out how you can save some money on this already affordable USB headset.This is narrated by Doug Merritt, Founder and CEO of Headset Advisor.Sidetone is a feature that a lot of people want in a headset. That's because it allows you to hear your voice enabling you to regulate speech volume. If you can't hear yourself, it's hard to know how loud to talk. The headset in today's episode has the helpful feature of sidetone. So what headset am I referring to? It's the Discover D722U. And yes, it does have sidetone. That makes it a bit unique because most headsets don't offer that feature in a button pressiing form. Instead, they require you to download software to access it. And that's where you could have a problem.Many companies don't allow its employees to download software. That's simply due to security concerns about bringing viruses and other electronic threats into the company IT ecosystem. The good news with the Discover D722U is there's no download required. Besides sidetone, here are some other things that make this a headset you should consider.1. Sound quality. The D722U has a very professional sounding microphone. Something that's important when you're talking on business calls. Your callers won't struggle to hear you, because you'll be coming across loud and clear.2. Noise reduction. Nobody wants callers to hear distracting noise going on in the background. This could be the sounds of kids, or dogs if you work at home, or noisy coworkers, road noise, or the sounds of your typical coffee shop. Wherever you work, and whatever your noise challenges, the Discover D722U will do a good job at removing noise so your callers will stay focused on the content of your call, and not those sounds going on around you.3. Comfort. This is a lightweight, comfortable headset. It may look bulky, but don't let the look fool you. It's constructed of high impact, lightweight materials which help to make it comfortable for all day use. Add to that, it comes with cooling gel, memory foam ear cushions that help to keep your ears from heating up.4. Built in speaker. Some computers don't come with speakers. The D722U inline controller has one built in. So you can hear your incoming softphone calls, or just listen to some music while you work.5. Warranty. Many headsets come with a 1-year warranty, and others offer a 2. The D722U comes with a full 3-year warranty. That means longer peace of mind, and you avoid the costs of repairs and replacements. So when those other headset warranties drop off, and leave you exposed, the D722U keeps you covered.6. Price. This headset is priced under $100.00, which makes it a great value when you consider everythng it offers; comfort, great sound quality, sidetone, a longer warranty and a built in speaker. But if you want a better price, make sure to use coupon code BLOG when shopping on our website, which is www.headsetadvisor.com Trade in your old headsets to save even more.And, we have a very affordable headset lease program with headsets starting at just $2.00 per month.

New Poly Voyager 5200 UC With BT700 Adapter
Oct 27, 202200:11:48Tap to summarizeIn this episode of the Headset Advisor Tech Review Podcast, you'll find out about a new update on the highly popular Poly/Plantronics Voyager 5200 UC Bluetooth headset. A great headset just got a little bit better, so make sure to listen to the entire, short episode to get all the details.This episode is narrated by Doug Merritt, Founder, and CEO of Headset Advisor.The Poly Voyager 5200 UC Bluetooth headset is maybe the most popular Bluetooth headset here in the U.S. and around the world. It's an iconic design, and it's lightweight and comfortable, not to mention it sounds great.So what did Poly (you know, Plantronics) do to make this great headset, even better?First, for those who don't know, Plantronics has a new name; Poly. This is the name that came from the merger between two heavyweights in their respective industries; Plantronics, and Polycom. They merged into one company that's now called Poly.Back to the Voyager 5200 UC.The new update on this headset involves the BT700 USB adapter because its been updated, and enhanced. It now gives you a better, more stable wireless connection, better sound quality and longer wireless range. And for anyone who's familiar with this headset, or uses one, those three things are helpful. After all, who doesn't want a more reliable signal, better sound quality and longer wireless range?The battery life hasn't changed from the previous version at 7 hours. The charging case gives you the ability to recharge the headset battery twice wherever you might be. This means that you can get up to 21 hours of talk time from the initial charge, and the two subsequent charges while you're out and about.The buttons have remained the same as well, with the mute, volume up, and down, call control, and power on/off.You can recharge the battery two ways:You can use the included Micro to USB charge cableOr, you can drop the headset into the charge case for a recharge.The microphone on the Voyager 5200 UC sounds very professional. It removes noise pretty well, though I'd like to see it do a slightly better job. Still, it does a solid job. And speaking of reducing noise, the 5200 keeps you sounding clear when there's noise going on in the background. As surprising as it might sound, a lot of headsets can't do that. They may reduce noise fairly well, but when they do, your voice quality suffers. You won't get that with the Voyager 5200 UC. The 5200 UC is compatible with all the leading UC platforms such as Microsoft Teams, RingCentral, Zoom and others, and you can take calls when you're away from your desk thanks to its compatibility, and remote call answering feature. You can avoid voice messages and returning calls because you're accessible up to the headset's wireless range.So if you like the Voyager 5200, you'll like the new version even more. More range, better sound quality, and a more stable connection. There's alot to like about the Poly Voyager 5200 UC, and now you have three new reasons to like it even more.Make sure to use coupon code BLOG when shopping on our website, which is www.headsetadvisor.com When you do, you'll get a nice discount on your order.

3 Things To Look For In A Headset Microphone
Oct 26, 202200:09:49Tap to summarizeIn this episode of the Headset Advisor Tech Review Podcast, you'll find out what to look for in a headset microphone when you're shopping around for new headsets. Because the truth is, they don't all sound the same, and they don't all give you what you need for use in business.So have a listen, to find out the three most important things to look for in a headset microphone if you want to sound your best, and give your callers the best possible sound quality experience.This episode is narrated by Doug Merritt, Founder and CEO of Headset Advisor.Any headset that you might consider for business use varies. They vary in a number of ways, and one of those ways is in how it sounds. And you have to agree, that when you use a headset for buisness, sound matters. That's because you're either conveying information, or you're selling something, and in the process, you want your message to be heard. And that can't happen if the headset you're using isn't up to the task.Headset microphones should be evaluated in three key areas; How well you sound when you're talking on a headset How well the headset microphone removes background noise. And often overlooked, but highly important is how you sound when the microphone is working to remove noise. In other words, how you sound when there's noise going on around you.Headsets come in all sizes and shapes, and for that matter, different price points too. Sound quality doesn't always mirror pricing which means just because you pay a lot, or a little for a headset, the sound you'll get is unpredicatable. We've tested some inexpensive headsets that do a good job at these three key areas. We've also tested headsets that cost a lot more, that are average at best in sound quality.So how do you know what you'll get when you make a decision to buy a new headset for you, or your team? You can't go by name brands only, becasue as I mentioned, some fall short, even name brand products.With nearly 30 years of headset experience, it would be my advice for you to try a headset in your place of work before deciding to buy it. Then, and only then will you really know how it will perform in your specfic workplace. You could consult with others in your industry, or you could read reviews, but there's really no substitute for first hand knowledge that can only be obtained by sampling live in your environment. And if your vendor won't provide you with a headset to evaluate, then I'd suggest that you find yourself a new vendor to work with.You want to sound crisp and clear on your calls, and that underscores the need for a great sounding headset microphone.You don't want your callers hearing all that noise going on around you either. Whether you work from home, in an office, on the road, or at the local coffee shop, you have noise to content with. When your callers hear that noise, they get distracted, which takes them away from hearing your message clearly.Believe it or not, many headsets struggle to keep you sounding clear when there's background noise. That's something you want to test before buying any headset. Some headsets have you sounding choppy or garbled when there's noise. Not the sound quality you need when on business calls.If you have questions, or need some help, reach out to us at www.headsetadvisorcom. And if you're looking for headsets, make sure to use coupon code BLOG at checkout for a nice discount. We have bulk pricing available, a trade in program, and even a headset lease plan that includes accessories, and a warranty that doesn't expire. Headsets start at just $2.00 per month.

Here’s Why The Orosound Tilde Pro Is Perfect For Zoom Calls
Oct 24, 202200:14:15Tap to summarizeIn this episode you'll learn about a Bluetooth wireless headset that's perfect for all your Zoom voice and video calls. Listen in to find out what makes this headset better than others so you'll always sound your best when on your calls.You'll also find out about a discount you can use if you buy one of these headsets, and you'll also find out about a unique purchasing program only available through Headset Advisor. So make sure to listen to the entire episode so you get all the details.This episode is narrated by Doug Merritt, Founder and CEO of Headset Advisor.For a business to achieve name recognition to the level that pretty much everybody knows it, is not an easy task. But that's exactly what Zoom has accomplished. Zoom went from a fairly recognizable name, to one that's achieved household name recognition status. We all know about being on a "Zoom call" and what that means. But when you're on those calls, what is the best device to use so you're heard loud, clear and professionally? How about the microphone and speakers that you find in any of the Laptops? Probably not your best option. Well, how about using a usb speakerphone? Better, but is it best? Not really. You could always get one of those cheap plug in goose neck mics, but that would put you in the lower rungs of the microphone food chain. So what's best? A high quality wireless headset.I'm not referring to just any headset, I'm referring to a good one because you want to sound good on all your calls. Here's the headset for you.The Orosound Tilde ProIt gives you voice quality that's far superior to just about any other headset available. And the noise reducing microphone eliminates unwanted background noise so your callers will hear you, and not the sounds going on around you.You get a battery that gives you 28 hours of talk time so you won't need to charge this headset every day. In fact, you may only need to charge it once a week. And when you're recharging, you can use the headset, where others will keep you waiting.The Tilde Pro comes with a feature called Active Noise Cancelation, or ANC for short. ANC is designed to give the person wearing the headset control over the amount of noise they hear. You have 10 stages of noise control, so you can dial it up, or down, depending on how much you want to hear so you can keep focused on your work.The Voice First feature allows you to have a face to face conversation, without the need to remove the headset. It can become very frustrating to keep taking off the headset throughout the day, but with Voice First, you just press a button to have a conversation.The excellent noise canceling microphone is magnetically attached. You can use it, or remove it at will. It removes simply, and reattaches easy as well. So when on important calls, use the boom mic for the best sound quality. Then, when listening to music, remove it for a headphones look.The ear cushions are interchangeable between those that go against the ear, and those that fully surround the ear. Either way, you get to choose the ones that are right for you. And the sound quality of the ear speakers are first rate. Truthfully, they sound extremely good, and though not to the level of Bose, for a business headset, the Tilde Pro sounds incredible.The Tilde Pro also comes with a USB Adapter so you won't need to connect to your computer via Bluetooth, which can be unstable, and give you compromised sound quality.

Oct 22, 202200:15:22Tap to summarizeIn this episode of the Headset Advisor Tech Review Podcast, you'll learn about a wireless headset that's perfect for use in a Contact Center.You'll find out what this headset can do that others cannot, and why that unique ability is helpful to Agents, and to Center Managers too. It's not often that you come across a headset that breaks out of the tradional mold, but this is one wireless headset that does. So make sure to listen to the entire episode so you can find out what set this headset apart from all the others.This episode is narrated by the Founder and CEO of Headset Advisor, Doug MerrittEvery once in awhile something new comes along that breaks out of the mold or ordinary, or traditional. In this Podcast, you'll find out about one such product in the Discover Adapt 30 Bluetooth wireless headset, and what makes it a headset like no other.Let's start with how this headset can be worn. As you know, when you select a headset, that's the wearing style you get unless you pay to replace it for another. The Discover Adapt 30 can be worn over the head covering one ear, or, you can change it over to a dual ear wearing style. That's because this headset is modular, and it comes with both headbands. And worth noting is the dual headband contains two live, active ear speakers, and not one that shares sound from one live speaker to a second, dead one. So, you get true binaural sound.Having this flexibility is useful because sometimes you want to hear what's going on around you, in which case, you'd snap on the single ear headband. But, for those times when things get noisy which makes it hard to concentrate (and places a drag on worker productivity), then remove the single ear headband, and snap on the double ear band. You'll hear less of your background noise, concentrate better, and get more done in the process.There are other things that make this a nice headset to consider for use in a Contact Center. The microphone is professional grade which means you'll sound professional on calls, and the noise canceling microphone will help eliminate unwanted background noise. So your callers won't struggle to hear you.It comes with a USB adapter for use with the leading UC applications, and it gives you a better, steadier wireless connection compared to connecting via Bluetooth.It comes with an industry leading 3-year warranty too. And before you dismiss this as inconsequential, consider that you'll be protected for a longer period of time against anything that might happen to the headset. This means that when the other brands warranty drops off, leaving you exposed to unexpected costs, the Adapt 30 keeps you covered, and protected against the costs of replacements or repairs. So you have longer peace of mind, and you save money too.And if you'd like to save money on the Discover Adapt 30, make sure to use coupon code BLOG when shopping on our website, which is www.headsetadvisor.com.
