Jabra Unveils the Evolve2 – New Business Standard Headset Range for Modern Digital Solutions in the Workplace

As digital transformation and Unified Collaboration and Communication (UC&C) accelerates, so does the demand for products and services to support these trends. Jabra announces a new line of future-proof digital headsets, that enhance the user experience by delivering a high degree of concentration, collaboration and flexibility for the ultimate audio experience. LOWELL, MA - March 30th, 2020 - Jabra today announces the launch of its Evolve2 range, designed specifically to support digital transformation in the modern workplace. The Evolve2 85, Evolve2 65, and Evolve2 40 headsets are engineered to help businesses navigate the growing challenges of today’s workplaces in driving adoption of UC&C, while ensuring concentration, collaboration and flexibility remain a priority for employees. As businesses increasingly shift to digital processes, it is ever more important that tech products and solutions they utilize are able to support them in this journey. Enterprises are calling for the ultimate audio experience for their employees. The channel and reseller community are also seeing a growing demand for solutions to support businesses in their digital transformation journeys. The Evolve2 is the next generation of Jabra’s best-selling and market-leading UC headset [1], the Evolve range. Since Jabra’s Evolve range first hit the market in 2014, office work has changed significantly. Tasks are increasing in complexity and are creating a higher need for collaboration, causing an increase of distractions and noise in the office. As a result, workplace productivity remains a constant battle for businesses globally [2]. The new Evolve2 headset range includes seamless integration with software ecosystems, while blocking out more noise, ensuring effective collaboration and enabling optimal working conditions anywhere. But it is not only our office environment that have evolved. In today’s society where our work and private lives overlap regularly, it is important that tech solutions can support every scenario. Jabra’s no-compromise Evolve2 headset range offers features that suit every element of life – whether at work, at home or on-the-go. Analyzing the UC ecosystem Besides elevating productivity inside and outside the workplace, the Evolve2 range allows for monitoring and analyzing the entire UC ecosystem in the company to secure stable and high call quality. Evolve2 will integrate with leading software/monitoring vendors to allow IT Directors and other decision-makers to analyze the performance of every Jabra headset and quickly identify the root cause of poor call quality – whether it is due to Wi-Fi router, UC infrastructure, or the individual user’s headset settings through the Jabra Xpress software. The software also enables easy and secure management of headsets, allowing for firmware updates and the implementation of new features to make life easier for the IT department. As a result, resellers can now offer businesses the ability to advance their digital evolution by future-proofing their employees with the Evolve2 range. Holger Reisinger, SVP, Enterprise Solutions at Jabra, said: “As the importance of digital transformation grows, UC adoption and productivity is climbing the ranks as a key challenge for enterprises globally. We are seeing a growing demand for such solutions from businesses and the channel community. In this scenario, tech can exist as both the problem and the solution. The right tech can help eliminate the hurdles, drive positive user experience and elevate productivity. Our new Evolve2 range aims to do exactly that: by engineering a no-compromise headset that helps companies drive UC adoption and deliver collaboration, concentration and flexibility to the users. With this top-of-the class business headset range, resellers can be certain that they are delivering the ultimate audio experience to their valuable customers worldwide.” The Evolve2 range includes three headsets:
  • The Evolve2 85 offers Digital Hybrid ANC and ten microphones in total, including two microphones in the fully integrated boom-arm (with discrete “hide-away” design) and eight in the ear cups. Users can enjoy up to 37 hours wireless battery life, 40MM speakers for immersive music, and an integrated busy light with 360-degree view on both ear cups. The headset has been developed to take full advantage of the latest in audio chipset technology, enabling the Evolve2 85 to be one step ahead in battery life, solid connectivity and audio processing. Also, the sleek Evolve2 85 is designed with both the office environment and ‘on-the-go’ professional in mind, which ensures the headset can be worn regardless of where you’re working.
