Logitech, one of the market leaders in the computing world, has the potential to serve the entire meeting room landscape now. Logitech is delivering more functionality than ever, thanks to its sensational and versatile range of products. The 3-pillar philosophy that Logitech takes to meeting room and collaboration device solutions focuses on giving customers choice, room to scale, and a consistent experience in any environment.

We spoke to Simon Dudley, Head of Analyst Relations at Logitech, about the release of a new series of next-generation video conferencing tools, intended to complete the entire meeting room portfolio.

The new portfolio applies to all kinds of meeting rooms, combining Logitech’s simple and intuitive set-up experience, with radically enhanced technology. What’s more, thanks to Room Mate technology, provisioning and set-up is easier than ever.

From a ‘small rooms and meeting spaces’ perspective, Logitech offers the Rally Bar, and the Rally Bar Mini. These innovative tools transform any meetings with 4K video, crisp audio, and a simple all-in-one design. Advanced audio engineering comes with low-distortion speakers, adaptive beamforming microphones, and auto-levelling tech to support better audio communication.

Logitech Rightsense technology and AI viewfinder also supports users with computer vision solutions that can detect human figures, process their position in real-time, and deliver advanced auto-framing and camera control experiences, so participants are always in focus.

The Rally Bar Mini and Rally Bar are easy to set up and use, with flexible mounting options and cable management, and there’s a stunning design to add to the modern minimalist look of any office space.

Both come with features like:

Midsized and Larger Meeting Rooms

For medium-sized meeting rooms, the Rally Bar offers a sensational experience with 5x optical zoom for keeping track of all meeting participants. There’s also the Meeting Plus for larger meeting spaces, which supports high-performance video conferencing equipment set in a larger space.

To enhance the meeting room experience, Logitech also announced the arrival of the RoomMate computing appliance, a solution that allows customers to run video conferencing services on Logitech cameras, without a Mac or PC. The solution simplifies setup, management and video conferencing equipment use, no matter the working environment.

Logitech’s new portfolio comes after the company has gone above and beyond to address stock challenges following the pandemic. Another bonus is that Logitech’s meeting room solutions will work with various leading video conferencing tools, including Microsoft Teams Rooms, and Zoom.

The full collection of meeting room solutions, combined with the easier provisioning system and the AI-enhanced features within the technology, sets a new precedent for meeting room technology. You can run video conferencing apps on the Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini or connect them via USB to any Mac or PC. There’s also support for BYOD technology to run your chosen solution.

Serving the New Modern Meeting Room

From the presence of a second camera on the video bar that supports AI and room analytics, to advanced audio coverage via Rally Mc Pods, businesses now have solutions that are simple and versatile. The Logitech portfolio means that every meeting room, no matter the deployment model or size, can keep every employee connected.

In a world where customers want more choice than ever before, Logitech’s diverse system allows them to access multiple platforms and environments, with absolute ease of use. All the while, Logitech supports incredible scalability for users that might need to upgrade their meeting room requirements over time.

During a time when companies are facing endless sources of disruption and chaos, Logitech’s video collaboration solutions help companies adapt to the age of the new normal. Logitech is working at an incredible pace, to bring cutting edge technology to the marketplace, and transform the end-user experience. The Logitech Rally products are just one example of this.

Perhaps most importantly, with the rise of the hybrid workforce, the Logitech solutions will offer the same experience to both remote and in-office workers, catering to the growing demand for consistent UX across all meeting rooms.

Making Better Meetings More Accessible

The Rally bar collection promises Logitech an easy way to connect with companies and business users all over the world, no matter their needs or meeting demands. With a sleek and stunning design (At any size) and a range to suit any space, Logitech is giving everyone an open door to better meeting experience.

With brilliant optics ranging all the way up to 4K, the Rally bar systems are sure to make any professional look their best in their next meeting, and super-smart AI technology ensures that you don’t have to worry about your camera losing focus on you or your team members. The new products, which are available from January the 19th 2021, come at a compelling price point, ready to attract small businesses.

UK pricing is:

Rally Bar: £3,599

Rally Bar Mini: £2,699

Although the cost might seem high at first, the ROI is also incredibly significant, due to the reduction of costs associated with travel, and in-person employee overheads. The fact that the technology is so easy to set-up, manage, and monitor with Room Mate also reduces the costs associated with having a professional on-hand to set up all of your meeting experiences.
