Native Integration With AV Conferencing Platforms
Crestron meeting space solutions are natively integrated with Microsoft Teams and Zoom audio video conferencing software. Native integration enables one-touch start, join, and end for meetings with a mix of in-person and remote employees.
Crestron conference room systems also offer interoperability with other popular collaborative platforms, including Skype for Business, Slack, Cisco, WebEx, Amazon Chime, and GoToMeeting.
Room Scheduling
According to market research, scheduling a meeting is one of the biggest pain points executives and managers face in the workplace. Common mistakes like double-booking a meeting room or failing to book a room at all often lead to confusion, frustration, and lost productivity.
Crestron room scheduling makes it easy for anyone to reserve a room in a Crestron-connected space. Crestron scheduling software directly connects to Microsoft Exchange, Office 365, Google, AdAstra, and CollegeNET calendaring platforms. You can book meeting rooms using a wall-mounted touchscreen in the hallway, a tabletop touchscreen in the room, or through the web-based app.
At a glance, it’s easy to check the day’s scheduled meetings and locate available meeting rooms and times. At a touch, it’s easy to schedule, cancel, reschedule, or extend a session.
Wireless Content Sharing
Crestron systems come with built-in AirMedia for wireless presentations. With AirMedia, meeting participants can display content from their own devices (laptops, mobile phones or tablets) and make presentations from their seats. Bring your own device (BYOD) solutions simplify content sharing because participants are more comfortable using their personal devices rather than presenting a PowerPoint or video from a shared computer.
As a bonus, tools like AirMedia help your business create safer, touchless meeting spaces.
Crestron XiO Cloud™ Management
Configure, deploy, and manage an unlimited number of conference rooms with Crestron’s XiO Cloud. Cloud-based management allows your IT team to remotely monitor all Crestron-connected meeting spaces from one web-based platform. You can approve a single settings change or firmware update that will roll out to all devices at once, ensuring every room is up-to-date within minutes. XiO Cloud also offers status updates, instant alerts, and usage data on all devices. Your IT team can provide remote support for malfunctioning systems.
