The modern meeting room demands more than good gear. It needs a strategy. Discover the evolution of AV/IT Technology and how we use it to your advantage.
In the ever-evolving world of audio-visual technology, we’ve witnessed a significant shift from dedicated hardware and software for video endpoints to the use of commercial off-the-shelf hardware running on Windows or Android. This transformation has not only simplified the deployment of meeting endpoints but also integrated them into the broader IT ecosystem, managed by the same tools that oversee workplace laptops and desktops.
At VCSolutions, we bridge those worlds — making sure every space not only looks and sounds good, but performs consistently, is easy to manage, and scales over time.
Meeting Room Architecture Matters
This evolution presents new challenges. Mastering the room’s acoustics, optimizing both natural and artificial lighting, and leveraging the unique dimensions of the space are essential to creating truly impactful experiences.
But it’s equally important to have a deep understanding of the IT tools and management platforms. Every OEM offers one or multiple management platforms needed to apply specific configurations, activating features or provide deeper and richer analytics. This adds complexity to the equation.
Selecting the right equipment based on the use cases and business scenarios is just one element of the process. An equally important aspect is ensuring proper software and hardware lifecycle of these endpoints. Selecting components that will be supported for the next couple of years is essential for mid-term success.
Hybrid Meeting Is the (New) Standard
Market research indicates that hybrid meeting spaces are becoming the norm. According to Gartner, organizations are increasingly investing in video-enabled group spaces with an emphasis on host controls, in-meeting features, easy-join options, and interoperability. Frost & Sullivan’s research highlights that 46% of IT decision-makers are initiating office modernization projects to create tech-enabled spaces that enhance employee experience.
Choosing the Right Audiovisual Equipment Is Only the Start
As we continue to navigate this changing landscape, it’s clear that the integration of AV expertise with IT management tools is not just a trend but a necessity. By staying informed and adaptable, VCsolutions can ensure that your meeting spaces are equipped to meet the demands of the modern workplace. Hybrid meeting spaces of tomorrow today.
