Work from anywhere: 5 things to consider when choosing headsets

Updated: Mar 27, 2023

The flexibility you’ve given your people to work from anywhere leaves you with only one choice. Voice and video meetings are here to stay, so choosing the right headsets that are designed for how and where people work is how you get the most out of those meetings. Poly offers a range of professional headsets that promote connectivity with colleagues and customers, with options for multiple workstyles, workspaces, wearing preferences and connectivity requirements.



Consider these key points when choosing the right headsets


1. CONNECTIVITY IS KEY


Professional headsets can connect to either a single device or multiple devices. For connection to both a computer and a mobile device, consider the Voyager UC series or select Blackwire models that include a 3.5 mm connector.


2. WIRED OR WIRELESS


A headset needs to suit the user’s workstyle as well as the needs of their workspace. For the freedom to commute during a call, check on the children, or do a coffee run, consider a wireless headset from the Poly Voyager range.


For plug and play simplicity without the need to worry about charging, consider the Blackwire range.


For a versatile headset that can be used in both wired and wireless modes, consider the Poly Voyager 4210 UC and Voyager 4220 UC.


3. DISCREET DESIGN


For users that spend most of their time on video calls, the look of a headset can feel like an extension of their personality and presence.


For a more discreet wearing style, look to either the Poly Voyager 5200 UC with its over-the-ear design, or the Voyager 6200 UC with its behind-the-neck and attached ear buds design.


4. DISTRACTING NOISE


Shared workspaces – whether at home, in the office or on-the-go – can mean distracting noises need to be avoided for the benefit of people on both sides of the call. Headsets with active noise-canceling (ANC) technology are great for blocking out noise so users can focus. Additionally, noise-canceling microphones allow those on the far side of the call to hear speakers clearly, but not their environment.


For the ultimate in noise reduction performance, consider headsets featuring our Acoustic Fence technology. For a corded option, consider the Blackwire 8225 or the Voyager Focus 2 for wireless connectivity.


5. WEARING STYLE


Headset wearing style largely comes down to personal preference, but your environment also plays a role. Poly headsets come in several different styles to suit individual needs.


For users working in a distracting environment with lots of noise, consider a headset that covers both ears.


For users who need to keep one ear open to their surroundings, look for a headset that covers just one ear, consider either the Savi 8210 or the Voyager 4210.


For users who are new to headsets, there’s a convertible headset like the Savi 8245 UC that gives you the choice of different wearing options, right out of the box.
