Barco enhances ClickShare wireless room systems with digital signage capabilities

KORTRIJK, Belgium, May 2022— Barco, global leader in professional meeting room visualization and collaboration solutions, announces that its ClickShare solution for wireless presentation and conferencing has been extended with digital signage capabilities. Meeting room displays that are connected to ClickShare can now be leveraged as corporate branding tools to impress, inspire and inform by distributing digital signage messages. The first digital signage integrations are made possible by ClickShare alliance partners Signagelive, Seenspire and Korbyt.

Office managers are increasingly looking for cost-effective ways to disseminate information across locations in the organization towards employees, visitors and customers. At the same time, IT managers want to maximize the return on investment of their meeting room technology, displays and conferencing systems. Barco has joined forces with alliance partners Signagelive, Seenspire and Korbyt to present an answer to these needs.

From collaboration canvas to digital signage platform

Digital signage messages can now easily be distributed across a range of ClickShare devices located in the facility. This enables organizations to keep meeting room visitors informed and engaged by delivering focused messages. Without needing additional hardware investments, the functionality of existing meeting room displays can be extended from presenting and conferencing towards digital signage.

You can now simply publish and push content from your preferred digital signage platform to all meeting rooms equipped with ClickShare Conference or ClickShare Present and other locations in the workplace. Activation is simple and painless: you just need to enable signage on ClickShare from the XMS cloud management platform.

ClickShare’s digital signage alliance partners

“ClickShare steps up its integration with digital signage, offering customers the opportunity to increase the ROI of their meeting spaces,” says Michaël Vanderheeren (Product Management Direct Workplace at Barco). “In collaboration with our digital signage alliance partners, our customers can get the most out of their meeting spaces and turn them into corporate branding tools, helping them to communicate and exchange information, like welcome messages, news, social feeds, customized and branded content and boost engagement in their workplace.”

Barco’s customer-first approach is the starting point for our new alliance partnerships with Signagelive, Seenspire and Korbyt on digital signage integration.

Signagelive (www.signagelive.com) is a global leader in the development and delivery of digital signage applications and interactive media solutions.

Jason Cremins, CEO at Signalive, comments: “The launch of Signagelive for ClickShare enables organizations to extend the reach of their digital signage to meeting rooms and huddle spaces. From a single cloud-based platform, unified dynamic messages integrated with internal data systems and calendar software can be published to ClickShare, engaging employees and visitors in contextual and highly engaging content. We are proud to be digital signage alliance partner for ClickShare and look forward to demonstrating to Barco partners and customers the benefits of Signagelive for ClickShare.”

Seenspire (www.seenspire.com) is a subscription-based streaming service for digital signage content. The company offers worldwide AV and System Integrators access to fresh and engaging content for their displays. Content managers can use Seenspire to keep meeting room users informed by streaming continuously updated information across ClickShare Conference and ClickShare Present-equipped meeting rooms.
 



 “Through the partnership with Seenspire, Clickshare users can effectively leverage the digital signage feature, regardless of the users' current digital signage CMS. With our joint solution, Clickshare users can now stream unlimited Social, Infotainment, and Collaboration content and effectively communicate via meeting room displays, “ says Samuel Mekonen, CEO Seenspire.
 

Korbyt Anywhere (www.korbyt.com) is a workplace experience platform that enables companies to reach their workforce to deliver relevant content, data, and information, or enable easy access to the systems and resources on any screen, anywhere.

“As organizations continue to encourage employees to return to the office our purpose is to make their workplace experience stellar”, says Korbyt’s CEO, Ankur Ahlowalia. “Aligning with Barco on this initiative makes it easy for our shared customers to maximize their IT investments and use ClickShare products and Korbyt’s CMS to communicate and engage with the employees that surround all the meeting room and collaborative displays available in their facilities.”
