When to Choose Poly Studio X72

Large conference rooms (14-20+ people) that need a premium all-in-one solution with native platform support

The Poly Studio X72 is the flagship all-in-one video bar for large conference rooms. Its dual-camera AI Director system handles big rooms with ease, and the integrated compute means no separate PC is needed for Zoom or Teams Rooms. The price is steep, but for large-room deployments, the X72 delivers enterprise-grade quality.

Strengths

  • Dual-camera system with AI Director for intelligent framing of up to 20+ participants
  • Exceptional audio with NoiseBlockAI and Acoustic Fence technology
  • Native Zoom, Teams, and open SIP support — no external compute needed
  • Premium build quality with versatile wall-mount and table-stand options

Limitations

  • Premium price at $6,999 is a significant investment
  • Large form factor may not suit smaller rooms
  • Requires Poly Lens for full remote management capabilities

When to Choose Neat Bar Pro

Large conference rooms (14-20 people) in Zoom or Teams environments that prioritize design and AI framing

The Neat Bar Pro combines striking industrial design with powerful AI video capabilities. Neat Symmetry's multi-camera framing is among the best available, and Neat Pulse makes IT management straightforward. The limited platform support (Zoom/Teams only) is the main drawback for organizations using Google Meet or open SIP.

Strengths

  • Three wide-angle cameras with Neat Symmetry for intelligent participant framing
  • Stunning industrial design with premium materials and minimal footprint
  • Neat Pulse cloud management for remote monitoring and updates
  • Purpose-built for Zoom and Microsoft Teams with deep native integration

Limitations

  • Limited to Zoom and Teams — no open SIP or Google Meet support
  • Premium pricing at $5,850 for the bar alone (Neat Pad controller sold separately)
  • Older product (2022) though still actively supported with regular firmware updates
