Barco expands hybrid meetings portfolio with ClickShare Present range addition

KUALA LUMPUR, July 26 -- Barco, a global leader in meeting room technology, is about to expand the highly praised and awarded ClickShare family, enabling businesses to prepare for a smooth return to the office and step into the new reality of the hybrid workplace.

Completing the recent wireless conferencing range with two new models of ClickShare Present, its wireless presentation & collaboration solution, the company offers customers worldwide the freedom to equip hybrid meeting rooms according to their own requirements, existing ecosystems, and company IT policies.

“There’s no going back to the way we worked before. We’re no longer prepared to slog to every meeting in person. And the virtual meeting has its shortcomings too,” said Barco Senior VP and GM Enterprise, George Stromeyer in a statement.

“Instead, we are going for something better than both, which we call hybrid, a seamless blend of the physical and the virtual, of in-office and remote.”

Mixed working and collaboration solutions like ClickShare take centre stage in this new era. ClickShare enables seamless, highly engaged collaboration no matter where employees are working, putting the employee at the heart and fosters both engagement and connectivity.

With the introduction of ClickShare Present to the meeting room ecosystem, the company now offers a solution for any customer wanting to turn existing conference rooms into fully equipped hybrid collaboration rooms.

On the other hand, the fully agnostic ClickShare Conference models, launched successfully last year at ISE in Amsterdam, unleash the power of BYOM (Bring Your Own Meeting) by bridging to remote participants through their video service of choice.

ClickShare Conference gives users the freedom to organise hybrid meetings the way they want and where they want. They host calls from their laptop, use their preferred UC&C platform, and wirelessly connect to the meeting room display and AV peripherals.

In addition, ClickShare offers IT managers the freedom to choose between plug & play collaboration with the ClickShare Button or powerful workflow optimisation with the ClickShare Desktop App. Both empower hybrid meetings through the same, simple, intuitive experience.

As an ISO 27001 certified product, the company’s focus is entirely on security and central management, which is essential for IT compatibility.
