If you're in the market for a business phone but limited with phone outlets, DECT 6.0 technology is a lifesaver. Between this and the AT&T phones, I'd say VTech is better. PROs include ability to expand; decent speed dial/directory; voicemail; battery-operated; cordless handsets available. CONs sadly would be that you can only add up to 8 extensions (see the first item on the PRO list); to date, I have not found a wireless headset that works with the desksets; picking up a call that is already on hold needs to be done in a specific way or you end up tying up two lines (you get used to it over time.) I do like this phone system, but there are areas of improvement that I'm sure VTech has already made with a newer system. It does the job, and they're a pinch cheaper than the AT&T phones.
