Busylight UC Omega (15410) - Presence Light and Ringer - Busy Light for The Office - Free Busylight Software for Most UC Platforms and Softphones

Great for the home office. Family members can see that I'm in a meeting before interrupting me. It works well with Microsoft Outlook; free/busy/in meeting/presenting all have distinctive colors. It also uses sound to notify you that a meeting is about to start - handy if I'm away from my desk.

These are fantastic. I had some minor difficulty getting it set up - you have to install multiple pieces of software in a particular order and they all run at all times. You can adjust the light manually via one program, but I recommend never touching the manual setting as it will override all of the automatic stuff. The less you mess with it, the better it works. I kind of wish they would simplify it down to a single package. Also, it turns red anytime any software accesses the camera or microphone. I use things like OBS and video editors like Davinci Resolve and these packages turn the light red even when I am not recording. These have sounds that are enabled by default and can be quite loud. For example if a scheduled meeting is starting, they can ring loudly. We went for 5 years doign remote work without a light, but I got fed up with interruptions and bought several of these fo rthe household members who do remote work and it has made a dramatic difference in how we operate. No one needs to shout or signal that we're ina call anymore. We have one mounted outside a bedroom door (these have sticky foam included for this purpose) so no more knocking on doors during calls or peeking in. one of those things we never knew how badly we needed it until after we had it

As a Gartner Analyst working from home this is a godsend since my family never knows when I'm on a call since I've got my headset on for most of the day. I use Microsoft Teams as a softphone and now it's easy for the wife and kids to see my status at a glance. It worked right out of the box with the Teams beta software available for download (make sure you reboot your PC after installation). It was definitely smaller than expected. It's about half as tall as a credit card and about 2/3 as wide - but it does the job and is bright enough for my office which is well lit by big windows which let in a lot of natural light. I can control the status color of the lights directly from within MS Teams and it always stays in sync with my current status whether it's on the phone, free, busy, away, etc. I give it 4 stars because it is somewhat overpriced for the quality but the functionality is good and it works as advertised with no fuss.

I use MS Teams all day, with numerous meetings. I needed this to indicate when I am busy or not so my family knows whether I am able to talk or not. This works perfectly for that purpose. It's not very large, about the size of a US half-dollar around. The cord is about 4 feet long with a USB-A plug.

Works well for me for Zoom and Teams meetings.

I'm so happy with this product. Now my staff knows when I'm on a call or meeting. Also their customer service is superb! They handled my issue promptly and professionally.

It's my fault for not looking at the specs but this light is actually TINY. Wanted to use it as a large signal for others in the office to not speak loudly around me when I'm on a call and this is the size of a tic-tac box, the men in my office don't stand a chance of seeing this tiny thing. Also requires software to be downloaded onto the computer to work, it doesn't automatically register you're taking calls if you plug it into your phone without the software. When you have a computer locked down by IT of downloading software, this won't work for you.

The product is awesome. The software that supports it sucks. It took me a long time to get it working correctly. For any level of customization you have to download their hub software in addition to their software specific to the products the light is linking to. Once you have the hub running it gives little to no feedback if it is talking with the busy light. You can see the different colors assigned to your states, but you cannot change them. You can see the names of the ring tones and a volume controller, but you cannot listen to them. And every time I restart my computer it tries to setup outlook. Again, the hardware is great. I really think the software needs polish.
