Turn over a new leaf this autumn and improve collaboration with our brand-new features! With this update, we are offering new content sharing options, added flexibility to firmware updates and much more, enhancing meeting experiences for both participants and admins.
Have you ever been in the middle of a presentation and realized you´d like to dig deeper into the topic and share an additional asset? Or share and compare two different items? Be that an Excel sheet, a Word document, a visual or a webpage?
With this autumn release, a meeting participant can use their laptop to share not only one but now two distinct content items on a dual-screen setup (available with ClickShare CX-50 2nd gen and the ClickShare Bar Pro) from the ClickShare Desktop App. Boost efficiency and enjoy more productive meetings!
Don´t have the ClickShare Desktop App deployed in your organization?
Thanks to ConferenceView, you can share your presentation while keeping remote participants' video on screen, encouraging more natural interactions, engagement between participants in different locations and boosting productivity.
We have improved the interface design for a more recognizable, less intrusive experience that feels more like a natural part of your meeting flow.

Navigating firmware updates in large organizations can be daunting due to varying release schedules and operational demands. To address this, we’ve enhanced our ClickShare management options, granting IT administrators greater control and flexibility:
Up to this release you could manage your firmware updates via XMS Cloud as such:
This autumn, we are adding an extra option:
With this release, we recognize the growing presence of macOS devices in enterprise environments and expand our deployment capabilities to meet this customer demand.
Previously only available to Windows, our ClickShare Desktop Application can now be deployed en masse across macOS systems.
By enabling mass deployment, IT admins can streamline setup processes, ensure a seamless and unified experience across all devices in the organization, and maintain them consistently updated.
Thanks to the ClickShare Windows Driver, users who don’t have the ClickShare App installed on their laptop are not required to manually start the Button App each time they plug in a Button.
As mentioned in the summer release, we are updating the ClickShare Windows driver to ensure your Button users have the best possible experience.
Sarting with this firmware release, version 1.24 will be required to automatically start the Button App when plugging in a Button, in the case when the ClickShare App is not installed on the laptop.
Still need to update your Button App driver?
Managing firmware compatibility between ClickShare units and Jabra room peripherals just got easier with the latest update.
Traditionally, IT managers needed to manually check the Barco validated peripheral webpage to confirm firmware compatibility.
From this autumn, we are simplifying this process by automatically detecting connected peripherals, identifying their firmware versions, and verifying if they are using a ClickShare-validated firmware combination.
We are launching this feature in beta with support for five popular Jabra peripherals: PanaCast 50, Link 380, Speak 750, Speak 810, and Speak 275.
Microsoft´s Shared Spaces refer to various types of meeting and work areas that support collaborative work environments.
These include spaces where participants simply bring and use their laptop to connect to a Teams call and to meeting room peripherals (cameras, mics, all-in-one bars, etc.) and are able to collaborate effortlessly.
ClickShare not only shares but enables this vision. That is why, in February 2024, Barco and ClickShare entered a formal agreement with Microsoft that brings more ease of management for IT admins and better meeting experiences for participants.
With this agreement, IT admins can access room usage data of their ClickShare-enabled rooms in the Microsoft Teams Rooms Pro Management Portal.
This opens the way for understanding how meeting spaces are used and optimizing them based on the data.
With the autumn release, we are simplifying the process of onboarding ClickShare devices on the Microsoft Teams Room Pro Management Portal.
You can now effortlessly add your ClickShare devices in the Microsoft Teams Pro Portal and enjoy simplified integration of your meeting spaces.
The real game changer is the allocation of devices. Each device is already named after the room it’s in, making it straightforward for admins to assign devices correctly—no more guesswork matching base units with rooms.
This feature is truly unique in our market and is a significant advantage in managing meeting spaces efficiently.
Once allocated, you will instantly enjoy the shared spaces experience within Microsoft Teams when using the Button.
ClickShare consists of different components: Base Units, Buttons, Apps and the XMS Cloud management platform. Make sure each component is updated to guarantee the best experience.
