The V500 delivers good video and sound quality and offers nice features, such as remote administration and management, at an attractive price. Yet the unit has several limitations that you should understand before making a purchase.

Polycom's V500 provides good video and sound quality, IP and ISDN connectivity, and remote administration. The unit is a solid H.264-compliant video conferencing solution for small and medium-sized conference rooms or telecommuters. Budget-conscious businesses seeking a no-frills video conferencing endpoint should carefully consider the V500.
