The benefits of ClickShare: reliable, secure, futureproof room systems

Providing recommendations for new technologies or innovations is a key and exciting part of the job for any consultant. Having been brought in to oversee an office relocation or refurbishment it’s important to not only understand how a particular product or system works, but how it can benefit the company you’re working with once things are up and running in the new, or new-look location.

ClickShare agnostic, wireless conferencing and presentation room systems have been installed in tens of thousands of premises all over the world, helping companies to revolutionise the ways in which their teams collaborate in-room or in hybrid meetings.

Fitted as part of an existing meeting room refurbishment or built into the design of a new huddle space in the new location, ClickShare is a popular choice among IT managers, commercial decision makers and employees using the solutions on a daily basis.

Let’s look at just what makes a ClickShare room system such a popular and wise recommendation.

Reliable conferencing and collaboration systems

Businesses don’t have time for malfunctioning equipment or missing components. In offices around the world there are currently systems that don’t work because of outdated software and equipment, missing or damaged HDMI cables and incompatible peripherals.

ClickShare is not one of these systems and that is a clear, concise reason why so many consultants recommend ClickShare to their clients. Designed to work by connecting any Windows or Apple device to the central Base Unit - that you can integrate in the company network as you prefer- to share content on a central meeting room screen, ClickShare is a fully wireless room system operated through the ClickShare Button or Desktop App.

No period of installation or training is required as ClickShare works in a plug and play manner. Automated, intent-based meeting flows make the experience smart and intuitive for users. Simply connect to the Base Unit, tap the Button or open the App , and users will be able to start a meeting or sharing their screen from their chosen device. Even remote meetings are made easier with our wireless conferencing solutions which allow you to connect wirelessly to USB room camera, mic and speaker and use these room peripherals in your video call.

Protecting the system, and business, against security breaches

With any system connected to a company network these days there are risks. Cyber criminals are more advanced than ever before, as are their techniques, and that means that any recommendation must take security into account.

ClickShare is one of the most technically secure systems around today, and it has ISO 27001 certification to back it up, as the only solution in the market. Each ClickShare system is developed through rigorous, detailed security testing including threat modelling and penetration testing to ensure that it can stand up to all current threats.

Not only that, new security updates can be downloaded automatically to each system through the remote, cloud-based XMS management platform enabling the IT department or administrators within the business to install upgrades that tackle online security risks as soon as they are identified.

Developed for the future, today

Built to perform now in terms of the overall quality of the system, not just its practicality, ClickShare is designed and developed to carry on performing in the months and years ahead. Rather than delivering immediate yet short-term benefits for the company, ClickShare room systems are futureproofed meaning they can be updated and managed through the cloud-based XMS management platform - or the XMS Virtual Edge software if you prefer to manage ClickShare devices on-premise - to ensure that users reap the benefits of updated features and enhanced security.

This means that ClickShare is likely to carry on providing multiple benefits for the company even five years down the line. Where meeting room screens, peripherals and laptops may come and go during that time, a ClickShare system will continue to evolve and offer new features for users with each software update. ClickShare Conference is agnostic, meaning that it is compatible with a wide range of AV USB-peripherals and unified communication (UC&C) technology used by your customers. This makes the ClickShare devices are compatible with the solutions and devices already installed. Current features already include innovative annotation and touchback support which work with touchscreen devices to enable the user to make notes on slides and even swipe through the presentation without having to touch a keyboard or mouse – who knows what may follow in the years ahead?

In addition, when your displays are not in use for conferencing or presenting, they can be used for digital signage. Boosting the ROI of your meeting space, they help inform, impress and inspire thanks to digital signage integrations with alliance partners.
