As classrooms continue to adopt hybrid learning models, telephony remains a critical tool to support day-to-day communications between teachers, administrators, and parents. Our experts have assisted schools across the globe, including Howe Public Schools, to migrate from legacy phone systems to modern VoIP systems, like Zoom Phone.

We sat down with Howe Public School leaders to hear how Zoom Phone and Poly CCX series desk phones have helped improve daily operations. Here are four key benefits customers can enjoy when choosing Poly |HP and Zoom for your telephony needs:

  1. Ease of Deployment

As shared by education advocate, Lance Ford, “When we bring in a [Poly] device, it’s so easy to provision and get it out of the door. That speed of delivery and with the flexibility to be wherever you need to be is what’s been beautiful about Zoom Phone and Poly.” When customers choose Poly solutions certified for Zoom Phone, you can trust our solutions to power up your Zoom experiences with ease.

  1. Smart Tools built for Mobility

Poly and Zoom understand that school leaders need tools to support effective communications no matter where they are physically working. We are delighted that educators, like Carol Ann Ford, can confidently “jump into it [Zoom Meetings] wherever” they are and keep the conversation going. Poly has a complete suite of certified solutions for Zoom, so whether you start a Zoom phone call on your mobile device with a Poly headset and transition the call to a Poly desk phone at your desk, we have all your communications needs met.

  1. Feature-Rich User Experience

“Our teachers and staff are loving the new Zoom Phone system; from the day of implementation to now, it’s been seamless” – Tammy Parks, Instructional Technology Coordinator

An intuitive user experience is essential to a successful deployment, and Poly uniquely understands this. We’ve thoughtfully engineered the Poly CCX series desk phones with Poly signature audio along with a color-touch display that showcases the familiar Zoom user interface. The modern design and cool features including Zoom directory access and escalating a call to Zoom video make this lineup of desk phones a fan favorite.

  1. Reliable Support You Can Count On

We have a global team of sales and tech support that work closely with customers to ensure the best user experience.

2022 Year In Review: Finding the Hybrid Work Balance with Zoom https://blogs.poly.com/2022-year-review-hybrid-work-balance-zoom/ Tue, 20 Dec 2022 17:00:26 +0000 https://blogs.poly.com/?p=25225

This year gave organizations the opportunity to explore and shape what hybrid work feels and looks like. Companies across all industries were tasked with finding the perfect balance, from determining how many days employees should spend in the office to identifying the right mix of collaboration tools to support various work styles. We’ve all learned together that hybrid work at its best is fluid. We are so proud that IT leaders continue to trust us with helping their teams share ideas, collaborate, and stay connected no matter where they choose to use Zoom services.

This year we launched Zoom-certified solutions that give users the flexibility to show-up and get the job done in style. Here’s a look back on our innovations that unlocked seamless collaboration experiences for Zoom users.

Zoom Phone

As Zoom Phone grows beyond 4 million seats worldwide, we remain committed to offering a full range of enterprise-grade voice solutions that meet every budget. Check out these three product lines that we’ve thoughtfully engineered together with Zoom to deliver seamless hot-desking and home office experiences.

Poly Edge E series – Our most versatile phone to date packed with indispensable features, including some you didn’t even know you needed.

Poly Edge B series – Enjoy these ENERGY STAR® rated phones equipped with audio-enhancing technologies at a shockingly affordable price.

CCX Series – Certified Zoom Phone Appliances that power a native Zoom user interface. We were happy to expand our portfolio to include the CCX 400 and CCX 500 models. Hold tight for CCX 505 to join the batch in 2023!

 Zoom Rooms

One of this year’s standout innovations that leveled-up the hybrid work experience is Zoom Workspace Reservation which allows employees to easily book office meeting spaces on-site or remotely using an interactive map. At Zoom’s annual end-user conference, Zoomtopia, we announced TC10, a two-in-one touch panel for room scheduling and meeting control. The TC10 powering Zoom Workspace Reservation makes meetings more productive and allows users to easily schedule spaces and conference rooms, control Zoom calls in the room, and share content with one simple touch.

Alongside TC10, we announced Poly Studio Bundles for Zoom Rooms — our latest Windows-based solution powered by HP’s Mini Conferencing PC. This was our most memorable highlight of the year, as it was the first collaboration of Poly and HP coming together as one. More importantly, Zoom customers now have a complete portfolio of both Android-based and PC-based solutions for small, medium, and large-sized Zoom Rooms.

We Are Stronger Together

As the year comes to an end, it’s incredible to see how our shared passion for human connection can trailblaze a wave of innovation, design, and technology. Our many accomplishments this year serves as a reminder that teamwork makes the dream work. With 2023 right around the corner, I’m so excited to see how our partnership with Zoom will take hybrid work to new dimensions.

Zoomtopia Featured a CEO Fireside Chat

Hear from HP CEO Enrique Lores and Zoom CEO Eric S. Yuan as they reflect on the power of human connection, the future of hybrid work, and work/life balance. The Zoomtopia 2022 Closing Keynote and Fireside Chat can be found here.

We look forward to what the Poly | HP and Zoom partnership will bring in the new year!

Poly Edge E Celebrates Platform Certification with Zoom https://blogs.poly.com/poly-edge-e-celebrates-first-platform-certification-with-zoom/ Mon, 26 Sep 2022 15:00:21 +0000 https://blogs.poly.com/?p=25028

We’re proud to announce that the Poly Edge E series is officially Zoom certified! This feature-rich line of desk phones checks all the boxes. The cutting-edge design is combined with Poly’s Acoustic Fence and NoiseBlockAI technologies, so you can always speak and be heard with confidence. Whether you’re looking to upgrade a home office, a hoteling area or the front lobby, our Poly Edge E series has you covered. Here are few hot features Zoom Phone users can get excited about:

FLEXIBLE PAIRING—HEADSET OR MOBILE PHONE

With the Poly Edge E series’ Bluetooth pairing ability and range, Zoom users can freely roam away from their personal workspace while staying connected on a Poly headset. In addition, users can pair their smartphone to any Poly Edge E220, E320, E350, E450 and E550 models, so they can answer their mobile device’s incoming calls seamlessly from the Edge E desk phone!

POWER UP ZOOM WITH EASE

Poly understands that Wi-Fi connectivity is essential for Zoom customers with home offices that are not equipped for ethernet connection. So, we’ve made getting started easy. With a power adapter accessory, the Poly Edge E350, E450 and E550 will immediately display the Wi-Fi setup screen for your convenience, so you can unlock all the Zoom Phone features in seconds. It’s that simple.

BUILT WITH SAFETY & INCLUSIVITY IN MIND

With a diverse workforce to support, the Poly Edge E series was designed to help IT decision makers deliver a safe and inclusive user experience. Health and safety are priority, so we’ve added Microban®, an antimicrobial product protection, during the manufacturing process to help reduce germ-spread in the office and at home.

No matter the location, IT decision makers are working hard to deliver accessible solutions to their workforce. The Poly Edge E series helps make that possible for Zoom Phone users. This series was designed to be more accessible, providing features like text-to-speech, audio confirmation and customizable fonts. These offerings make a huge difference, especially for those with impaired vision. No matter what your desk phone needs may be, you can be assured that the Poly Edge E series delivers a safe and inclusive experience.

REDEFINING THE ZOOM PHONE EXPERIENCE

This is just a glimpse of the range of features the Poly Edge E series brings to organizations who are prioritizing a flexible collaboration experience. There are additional innovations like near-field communication (NFC) technology that can be leveraged to simplify the office hoteling experience and new diagnostic tests—not to mention a configurable support contacts menu, making troubleshooting a breeze.

Poly Expands Zoom Phone Appliance Solutions https://blogs.poly.com/poly-expands-zoom-phone-appliance-solutions/ Fri, 01 Jul 2022 17:47:09 +0000 https://blogs.poly.com/?p=24560

The tremendous growth of Zoom Phone over the past three years proves that the desk phone is here to stay. End users expect their desk phones to have high reliability, privacy and security, along with the table-stakes of delivering high-quality audio.

Poly continues to raise the bar on delivering the best Zoom Phone experience. Last summer, we partnered with Zoom to launch Zoom Phone Appliances, featuring the Poly CCX 600 and CCX 700, to deliver a perfect blend of video and audio innovations.

This summer we are taking our Zoom Phone Appliance portfolio to the next level with the addition of the Poly CCX 400 and CCX 500! The addition of these powerful desk phones with 5-inch multi-touch LCD displays means Poly now provides Zoom users with a full range of native Zoom-certified solutions that check all the boxes.

LEGENDARY SOUND TECHNOLOGY FOR THE CLEAREST CALLS

Poly’s award-winning HD voice technology ensures better comprehension, productivity and less fatigue. The Poly CCX series is embedded with Opus Codec technology that delivers premium interactive speech and music transmission over the Internet, so you get the best audio experience. Not to mention Poly’s Acoustic Fence and NoiseBlockAI technology which ensures Zoom users can be heard clearly by filtering out distracting background noises.

EASY-TO-USE INTERFACE AND DESIGN

The Poly CCX series is truly built for the modern hybrid workforce. This line-up of desk phones is equipped with color touch displays that showcase the familiar Zoom interface making it super easy to use. Zoom users can access voicemail, calls, calendar, and even escalate audio calls to video all with one touch.

HANDSET OR HEADSET OPTIONS AT YOUR FINGERTIPS

With Poly CCX 500, 600, and 700, Zoom users have the option of selecting a handset phone or a no-handset phone that pairs with one of our Poly headsets like the fan-favorite, Voyager Focus 2 UC, which is equipped with Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) technology. The flexibility of these desk phones ensures both IT and management will have success with Zoom Phone adoption and productivity.

TAKE CONNECTIVITY TO THE NEXT LEVEL

As workstyle needs have evolved over the years, it became clear that both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity were key features of a modern desk phone. And as usual… Poly delivered. We’ve elevated the Zoom Phone experience by enabling Bluetooth support on the CCX 500, 600, and 700 so Zoom users have the freedom to move around during a Zoom call. Ethernet support is a given, but when you can’t connect to a physical ethernet, Zoom users can connect the 600 and 700 to Wi-Fi in the office, at home or on the go.

LEARN MORE

Poly is proud to expand our suite of Zoom-certified solutions and add the Poly CCX 400 and CCX 500. Giving our customers a full range of products that best fit their needs and workstyle is Poly’s highest priority. We have no doubt you will find a solution that best fits your needs from our CCX series suite.

Raising the Bar on the Hybrid Office Experience with Zoom https://blogs.poly.com/raising-the-bar-on-the-hybrid-office-experience-with-zoom/ Thu, 14 Apr 2022 15:00:12 +0000 https://blogs.poly.com/?p=24048

Together, Poly and Zoom continue to elevate the hybrid work experience with timely features that deliver a seamless experience. As organizations actively make their move back into the office, it is essential to provide employees with both a safe and streamlined experience. With that in mind, we’ve engineered Zoom Room Appliances, including the Studio X Series and G7500, to support Zoom Workspace Reservation (beta). This feature allows users to easily book meeting spaces using an interactive map whether they are on-site or remote.  

There are two powerful use cases that have taken hybrid work to the next level: 

Virtual Receptionist Kiosk 

One of the many benefits of hybrid working is the flexibility to work in a range of different environments such as a home, local café or office. When visiting the office, users can interact with a Virtual Receptionist Kiosk powered by the Poly Studio X30 and a touch display screen, to be greeted by a remote receptionist who assists with checking in. Alternatively, users can simply click on the Workspaces button to get a view of available rooms and workspaces in the office for them to reserve. Upon booking, users can scan a QR code on the Zoom app or get the reservation sent to their email. It’s that simple! 

Hotdesking with Zoom Phone 

Poly has a wide range of certified Zoom Phone solutions that are easy to use with all the Poly award-winning audio features. In partnership with Zoom, we launched Zoom Phone Appliances on the Poly CCX 600 and CCX 700 to provide users with a feature-rich experience. These multi-media business phones have a full-color touch display and are fine-tuned to provide a phenomenal video and audio experience. The Poly CCX 600 and CCX 700 make for great personal office workspace solutions and when paired with Zoom’s Hotdesking feature they make it super simple to convert a shared community device into a personal device instantly.  

So how easy is it? When users are ready to check into their reserved office workspace, they use their mobile device to scan the QR code on the CCX desk phone via the Zoom app. Once users enter their pin on the CCX phone, they are automatically signed in to their personal Zoom account and can enjoy the intuitive Zoom interface to access contacts and meetings. When they’re ready to log off, they do so with just a few touches and now the workspace will show up as available on the interactive map. 

Here’s a short video that shows just how powerful these innovations can be to support hybrid workforces:

Poly and Zoom: 2021 in Review https://blogs.poly.com/poly-and-zoom-2021-in-review/ Thu, 30 Dec 2021 21:00:48 +0000 https://blogs.poly.com/?p=23613

Poly and Zoom Take Hybrid Collaboration to Greater Heights with Thoughtful Innovations

With the New Year quickly approaching, it’s safe to say we’re all looking forward to a fresh start. Whether it’s getting back to the gym, reading new books, or starting a new hobby outside of work, everyone is ready to do their best. Likewise, this new era of hybrid work has encouraged companies to prioritize human connection and invest in collaboration solutions that ensure everyone can meet as equals, no matter the distance.

Poly works in partnership with Zoom to deliver innovations that bridge the connection gap between remote and hybrid participants. We recently released some exciting updates that further elevate the meeting experience in meeting rooms and personal workspaces:

Microsoft Guest Join

Back in September, we were super excited to announce the Poly Studio X70, an all-in-one video bar-certified for Zoom services, at Zoomtopia. This feature-rich video bar is truly built for Zoom Rooms, as it’s finely tuned to deliver crystal clear video and audio for large-sized conference rooms. Participants in the conference room can seamlessly join Zoom meetings and look their best. But it gets better.

Zoom Rooms customers will be able to join Microsoft Teams meetings from Poly’s appliances natively without the need for any additional services or licensing. With Poly Studio X70 and G7500 with Poly Studio E70 camera, Zoom Rooms subscribers are empowered to meet how they want with the tap of a button and never compromise the high-quality Poly audio and video experience.

Zoom Rooms Smart Gallery

Poly and Zoom have collaborated to deliver Zoom Smart Gallery that gives remote participants a “seat” at the table. Poly Director AI technology allows remote participants to remain focused on the active speakers in the room and contribute to the conversation with confidence. Zoom Smart Gallery is currently supported on Studio X30 and Studio X50, which are perfect solutions for huddle and medium-sized rooms. Keep a lookout for software updates in the New Year as Poly and Zoom continue to refine and expand the Smart Gallery experience on more Poly solutions including Studio X70 and Studio E70.

Workspace Reservation

 The rapid growth of Zoom Phone has proven that phone capabilities remain a critical communication tool for hybrid workforces. Earlier this year, we worked with Zoom to launch appliances for Zoom Phone with the Poly CCX 600 and 700. Zoom Phone users can enjoy a video-first experience with a familiar user interface that is intuitive and packed with cool features like Zoom Whiteboard. The latest CCX innovation that embraces the “on-the-go” workstyle is workspace reservation, which allows users to temporarily sign into a provisioned desk phone in shared spaces. It’s that simple.

Certified Personal Devices

This year we’ve all quickly learned the importance of having a web camera that has shutter privacy paired with a headset that lets you know you’re muted on Zoom team calls. Thankfully, Poly has a nice spread of headsets, web cameras, and speakerphones certified across Zoom’s Personal Workspace categories. Poly’s headsets certified by Zoom, such as the Voyager Focus 2 and Voyager 4300 series, are also equipped with Poly’s Acoustic Fence technology so you can speak with confidence knowing that background noise is blocked out. Pair a Poly headset with the Poly Studio P5 webcam and a cool Zoom virtual background, and you’re ready to show off. Of course, if you prefer a speakerphone versus a headset for your personal workspace, the portable Poly Sync 20 helps keep echo and noise out so you remain focused during your Zoom meetings!

This is Only the Beginning

This year organizations across all industries are learning that the key to adapting to this new way of work is to provide employees with the perfect blend of in-office, home, and on-the-go working environments. Poly has invested decades in research to understand the unique challenges that come with delivering a collaborative and engaging connection for participants in-and-outside of the office. Our close collaboration with Zoom has allowed us to power human connections for years to come.

Five Go BIG moments from Zoomtopia 2021 https://blogs.poly.com/five-go-big-moments-from-zoomtopia-2021/ Wed, 15 Sep 2021 16:02:09 +0000 https://blogs.poly.com/?p=5422

This year, Zoom took the Zoomtopia experience to the next level by hosting the annual conference on their recently announced virtual platform, Zoom Events. This year’s Zoomtopia theme was Imaginarium, and we were super excited to showcase how Poly’s complete suite of certified hardware solutions for Zoom help companies to reimagine their workspaces. Here are some memorable moments from this year’s event:

Introducing the Conference Room Heroes: Poly Studio X70 and E70

Two years ago, Poly partnered with Zoom to introduce the Zoom Rooms Appliances category with the launch of the first Zoom-certified video bars, Poly Studio X30 and X50, perfect for huddle spaces and medium-sized conference rooms. This year we were excited to expand the lineup with the introduction of the Poly Studio X70 and E70, delivering a native Zoom Rooms experience for large conference rooms. During this week’s event, attendees got to experience a 3D showcase of Poly Studio X70 and E70 during the Zoom Rooms Virtual Reality breakout session – super cool!

LIVE Demo of Zoom Rooms Smart Gallery: Poly Thought Leadership Session

As an annual Platinum Sponsor of Zoomtopia, Poly always enjoys the opportunity to connect and share our latest research, insights, and innovations with attendees. This year, Jennifer Adams, leader of Poly’s Workstyle Persona Research, partnered with Zoom experts to share the best practices and latest revelations around supporting the hybrid workforce as companies build out their return to the office strategy. We closed out our session with a LIVE demo of Zoom Rooms Smart Gallery on the Poly Studio X50 that showcased the power of Poly’s DirectorAI technology, a suite of new features capable of seamless transitions between active speakers. Poly solutions for Zoom Rooms paired with the Zoom Rooms Smart Gallery feature make conversations feel that much closer for everyone in the “room”.

Driving Change: Poly featured in Education & Healthcare Thought Leadership Sessions

This year Poly’s healthcare subject matter expert, Scott Simmons, participated in a breakout session to discuss how solutions, like the Poly Telehealth Station, are important for healthcare delivery organizations to provide comprehensive care. On the Education front, Melissa Griggs from our Poly Grants Assistance Program team, joined Zoom’s Global Education Solutions Lead, Pat LaMorte, for a one-on-one conversation on funding and best practices around long-term education needs.

Experience the Poly Difference: Zoom Interactive Workspace Design Tool

In the true spirit of the conference’s Imaginarium theme, attendees could use Zoom’s Interactive Workspace Design Tool to imagine how Poly solutions could be deployed in various Zoom work environments, like the home office, phone booth, or huddle spaces. A standout showcase was the in-office personal workspace that features the Poly CCX 700 desk phone, Voyager 4220 headset, and Poly Studio P5 webcam – all of which are Zoom certified devices. We knew this interactive tool would be a hit, so we filled our virtual showcase booth with helpful resources along with Poly experts to answer questions and coordinate live product demonstrations.

Keep a lookout for more Poly devices and workspaces to be added in the coming months!

Zoom Phone goes from 0 to 2 Million Seats Worldwide

Earlier this year we partnered with Zoom to officially launch the Zoom Phone Appliances category, and we’ve seen tremendous growth in a short period of time. It was great to hear from Zoom leadership on their plans to expand the Zoom phone cloud platform with cool features including video voicemail, which is a big upgrade from traditional voicemail to now a more personable alternative. I loved seeing Poly customers share their experience in a Zoom Phone breakout session of how Poly and Zoom technology provide the flexibility required to meet the demands of their hybrid workforce. On another note, our Zoom Phone Appliances, Poly CCX 600 with EagleEye mini camera and CCX 700 desk phones, were recognized in the Zoom Phone showcase as ideal solutions that deliver the perfect blend of video and audio. I’m looking forward to our engineers working together to deliver a native Zoom Phone experience on the rest of the CCX series.

Imagining the Future Together

We are proud to partner with Zoom to continue to trailblaze the video revolution as companies across the globe begin to fully embrace a hybrid working infrastructure. No matter where or how you work, we are working hard to ensure you have a reliable and seamless user experience every time.
