Best DECT Cordless Choice for 3cx

[systemstech]

We have a customer that wants to move forward with all cordless handsets for a small office 4-5 phones. Looking for recommendations from the experts here as to what they feel is the best DECT cordless system. I see Gigaset, Snom & Yealink are supported with a few different models each. They don't want to use the app only, maybe in addition.

We have a two Gigaset N870 (multicell) bases with 9 phones for 1 1/2 year now. Works great. See Gigaset wiki for 3cx interop and setup documentation.

We also recommend Yealink Phones, DECT and Desktop models.

I don't believe any manufacturers DECT phone has BLF ability for shared parking. What we do with some customers is map fake extensions that forward to SP1, SP2, SP3 so that users on DECT phones (and also mobile 3cxphone clients) can pickup shared parking calls by dialing 101 for SP1, 102 for SP2, etc.

For outgoing paging, if you are using a paging ring group just provide the extension number for people.

I've read about doing this to allow transferring a call to the app to pickup calls easily, can you explain are you forwarding to Shared Park or Park Orbit on those extensions? Any other details would be great.
Thanks!

Shared parking is used. Instructions are in my previous email. Make an extension 101 or 1001 and set to forward to SP1. Etc etc. Then when a call is placed on SP1 on a desk phone you can retrieve from the dect by dialling 101 or 1001.
