The Good

The Jabra BIZ 2300 MS has been designed specifically for the needs of contact centres that use Lync & Skype for Business. It has HD quality sound, is durable, comfortable enough to be worn all day and has some great features to keep your staff happy.

If you have some heavy breathers, this headset is perfect for you! The air shock microphone removes that breathing sound that is so off-putting. As you’d expect, the microphone is noise cancelling to eliminate background noise and wideband to give a natural sounding voice. To protect your staff, all Jabra headsets have PeakStop™ protection to immediately reduce any loud noises to a safe level.

The microphone boom arm is ‘unbreakable’ and spins 360 degrees. The arm is flexible for perfect mic positioning and the headband is adjustable for comfort. The soft foam ear cushions are sized large.

One of the weak spots in any headset is the cable. However Jabra have made the 2300 series with a Kevlar re-inforced cord, so presumably it’s also bullet-proof. Please don’t test that!

The Not So Good

As with any corded headset, with the Biz 2300 UC you are tied to your computer via a cable, this can be frustrating when wires lie across your desk and get in the way of papers or drop down and get crushed & tangled under chair wheels. If your work requires that you get up from your desk (whether on a call or not) you’ll need to unplug the headset or take it off each time & reclip / put it back on when you return.  If you do this alot it can get super-annoying so a wireless headset could save you time, hassle (and hair!)

Duo headsets are not for everyone. Yes, they’re great in noisy offices BUT if you’re sociable / need to speak to colleagues regularly, you might get annoyed by having to take it off or pushing the earcup off your ear to hear them.

The Verdict

The BIZ 2300 USB MS Duo is custom built for contact centres. It’s tough and reasonably priced as well as providing all day wearing comfort and HD quality sound for Lync & Skype for Business users.

Other Headsets To Consider Before Buying

For those that prefer a mono wearing style, the one-eared may be a better option to stay sociable. If you’re on a tight budget have a look at the or the excellent .

Another factor to consider is the extra productivity that can be gained from the freedom to walk away from your desk while on a call. It is worth checking out the is a great value wireless duo option and also works with desk phone. If you’re buying for an office rather than call centre, wireless is now the norm and your staff will LOVE you for this upgrade.
