Supporting Today’s Teams
According to Crestron, the work from anywhere environment has emerged as a widely accepted and appealing concept. Even now, as lockdown restrictions ease and people begin to return to the office, we’re all still relying on collaboration and video tools. These systems allow us to connect better with partners, colleagues, and customers.
Whether your team members are located in different rooms, or on opposite sides of the country, the new remote working environment means that access to video conferencing and collaboration tools brings everyone together. As employers continue to find ways of encouraging interaction and productivity, Crestron believes that these experiences will continue to evolve.
One major trend in the communication and collaboration landscape is that large boardrooms are quickly making way for dedicated small team spaces and management offices. These opportunities promise a smaller footprint, but a higher collection of performance UC devices to bring professional video and audio conferencing to all working environments.
Andrew Gross, the Director of UC Enterprise technology at Crestron said that the pandemic has dramatically changed the way that we work, and the spaces that we’re working in. The Microsoft Teams and Zoom technologies have become household names. At the same time, conference spaces and huddle rooms are redefining themselves – becoming crucial team units.
According to Gross, the desks of today’s offices are overrun with devices that aren’t ready for the next video conversation. Crestron is quickly developing products that solve these problems.
