Logitech Group Video and Audio Conferencing System for Big Meeting Rooms, All in One, 8 GB RAM, Windows 7/8.1/10, macOS 10.10 or Higher

Satisfied

I'm on the board of directors of a large homeowners association located in Arizona. Arizona has some very strict laws about open meetings and some of our members cannot physically attend meetings due to limitations (we're an active adult community). In the interest of being inclusive, we started looking for ways to webcast our board meetings as well as allowing interested clubs to also webcast their general meetings. Prior to this setup, we used the Logitech BCC950 which didn't work well for the large room we conduct meetings in. We have forty in attendance, five board members and over 1,000sf of meeting space. We limped along with it for two years until moving up to this Group system. What a HUGE difference! The biggest improvement is probably in audio - the microphone does an exceptional job of capturing various levels of talking and quickly and unobtrusively adjusts the level controls. We use this with the Zoom software because it's certified for use with Zoom and it is an ideal pairing. The software is inexpensive ($15/mo), simple and records your meetings in their cloud (albeit in lower resolution so you're not taking up GB's of space). The remote for this works from either the front or back of the control unit (speaker box) and the speakerphone function works well for those wishing to use the dial up number instead of the default audio capabilities. My only non-negative negative is the construction. The camera unit feels flimsy as if one false manual turn of the camera would destroy the motor mechanism. In fact, the first one of these we ordered did not function with pan or tilt and was immediately returned for this working unit. We don't have a lot of need to move the camera much and if it were permanently mounted somewhere, doubt it would ever be a problem, just something to watch our for. I can remember when getting this level of video and audio quality cost tens of thousands of dollars. I do suggest, to get the most out of the system, that the user have a dedicated laptop with no bloatware, no anti-virus beyond security essentials or defender, a wired connection to the network no matter how strong and fast the wi-fi signal is and that users take some time to review the training and use videos on logitech and the developer of your platform (Zoom or whomever). Our community has right at $2000 invested in the camera, laptop, A/V cart to store it all on and a very nice Viewsonic digital projector (also bought from Amazon!) and can do a very professional looking "broadcast" with screen sharing and whiteboard capabilities. Add some wireless lapel mics (also from Amazon) and you can follow a presenter as they move around from exhibit to exhibit. I'm sure in another few years, there will be even better/cheaper equipment on the market, such is the nature of technology. But, if you are trying to meet the needs of a community like ours, this is a very cost effective way to do so and one that is much appreciated by those that cannot attend various functions in person.

My review here is pretty simple. If you are looking for top-of-the-line everything, then don't buy this. If, however, you are looking for a conference room solution that has good sound quality, good video and picture quality, and will not cost thousands of dollars, then this is a GREAT buy. Much cheaper on Amazon than on Logitech's website. Very easy to set up. Although it comes with a cable to connect the camera/hub to the microphone unit that will go on a conference table, I ended up paying an extra $99 for a longer cord. The cord that comes with the unit is probably around 20 feet, which would be long enough for most users, so I am not dinging the product at all for my needing a longer cable. The remote control works well and has memory settings for camera positions, which are great if you plan to use this system for more than one area in an office (I have one seeing for when I am using it from a table in my office, and another for when I am zooming from my desk). Logitech software allows for easy adjustment, though I had to do some searching to find the right software to download. Sound quality seems above-average. I Zoom for Court Hearings all the time, and no one has complained about sound quality, though I think my Yeti Blue Microphone probably has better sound quality. I do wish that the camera had more digital zoom capability, but again, that's on me. I think that, when making a purchase like this and choosing to save money (this was half the price of the other setup I was considering), you have to take things like this into account. If you are a smaller business that does not need the absolute best of everything to impress your remote clients, then this is more than ample for your needs.

This item was purchased for a medium size board room. The setup was extremely single. There are only 4 cables that need to be connected making the setup simple: one cable from the Camera to a hub, another cable from the hub to the speaker/microphone, a power cable for the hug and a USB cable running from the hub to the computer/laptop. Using the product is even easier. It is plug and play, by using the included USB cable. Microsoft Teams picks up the Camera and the Speaker automatically. All the staff that has used this product love it and are happy with it. The camera has a great zoom feature and you can pivot around the room. The picture is clear and resolution is awesome with no blurriness. The speaker/microphone has great clear sound. The people on the receiving end hear everybody in the room clearly and the phone in the room hear the people outside of the boardroom clearly as well.

The sound and microphone keep cutting out. Simple unplugging and plugging back in the USB port fix the problem. Video keeps working. Replaced the entire system, updated all drivers on our 12 Gen Dell Optiplex.

This a pricy system but generally it's worth it for your office. It's easy to set up and works as expected. Video quality is excellent as is sound. I would highly recommend.

This product is currently being used at my place of employment for video conferencing using Bluejeans and skype for business. It's reasonably priced, and have not had any issues with this product. The camera comes with a wall mount (minus wall mount) and is a new 2 toned design- gray and black. I think this adds some sophistication to the look. The microphone should be placed within 5 feet of all participants for optimal use. I would recommend this product for business or use when video conferencing is desired.

Words cant describe how great this is. Easy to setup, great video quality, great sounds. One of the best purchases i have made. Perfect for any size office large or small either way it gets the job done and done well.

Well thought out product. It is plug and play and connects very easily. We use it with Zoom and it works very well. It is in a fairly large room and we can put 10 people around it with no audio issues at all. Camera is easy to operate as well.
