In my experience, Cisco stuff is generally "looks nice, has a huge reputation, 
but sucks a lot in reality"-- especially when it comes to their phones. The 
SIP firmware tends to be the "we make it because we have to" and doesn't get 
the attention that the SCCP firmware does.

That said, at work we use only Cisco IP phones (and I'm the one stuck 
supporting them). So I can't comment on Snom or other products-- for all I 
know they could be even worse, but I tend to doubt it.
