In today’s business landscape, a great portion of collaboration occurs remotely. This makes it crucial to equip meeting rooms with the right technology to facilitate it, with one of the most prevalent solutions being Microsoft Teams Rooms. However, there are still notable bumps in the road regarding execution – whether it’s high costs or physical clutter. As companies try to optimize investments, smaller meeting spaces often suffer the most.
“Most companies have multiple meeting rooms, and since equipping them all with Teams was historically very expensive or difficult to deploy, many chose to equip only the larger ones,” notes Jin Lyu, Product Marketing Manager at MAXHUB.
“Only few huddle rooms are well equipped, but there’s actually a huge potential for the smaller spaces to offer high-quality collaboration experiences.”
The Untapped Potential of Small Meeting Rooms
Small meeting rooms tend to suffer from the same “illnesses” as the larger ones – be it too many cables and adapters, missing controllers, or other inefficiencies keeping the meeting from going smoothly. However, they’re not treated the same.
“Small and medium rooms (accommodating 2-10 participants) are the most frequently used for collaboration, but ironically, they’re the most overlooked by business owners and IT departments,” Lyu says.
This often results in wasted time, difficulty in keeping discussions on track, and related hidden costs.
“Being as important as they are, small rooms should be equipped with a reliable, user-friendly UC solution like Teams to optimize collaboration,” she suggests.
The XCore Kit is designed to help businesses do just that.
MAXHUB XCore Kit for Microsoft Teams Rooms: Affordable, Comprehensive, Efficient
The MAXHUB XCore Kit allows businesses to ease and optimize collaboration in small meeting rooms in several ways:
Reduced Costs: “Before MAXHUB introduced our Teams Rooms solution, most brands offered Teams solutions that cost thousands of dollars to equip meeting rooms with,” Lyu explains.
MAXHUB’s XCore kit allows to cut the previous average budget by almost 50%, which means more businesses (and meeting spaces) can enjoy Teams Rooms without breaking the bank.
High ROI: Between access to superior conferencing capabilities and significant time saved on troubleshooting, MAXHUB calculated a notably higher ROI.
“With a full working hour saved per day, a modest investment of $22 in the XCore kit amounts in total savings of $875 per month.”
Display Included: Another differentiator of MAXHUB’s solutions is display, which is a key component of their offering.
“Most bundles don’t include the display, despite it being one of the most significant components of video conferencing,” Lyu notes.
IT Benefits: Finally, MAXHUB takes good care of IT teams by offering an in-house Device Management tool called Pivot alongside other perks.
“We also have a three-year warranty, unlike most vendors who only offer one or two years, as well as a global support service.”
MAXHUB: Addressing All Meeting Room Scenarios
Other than the XCore kit, MAXHUB offers a diverse portfolio of meeting room solutions to cover every user scenario.
“We’re launching our XCore Kit Pro for larger spaces soon, and we also sell smart displays as a standalone unit, as well as various other meeting room solutions,” Lyu shares.
