Taking Microsoft Teams to the next level with ClickShare Conference

ClickShare-Button-New-1.jpgWith a record 90% increase1 in video conferencing (VC) app downloads it’s evident that VC has provided a vital lifeline to keep people connected during the pandemic. Microsoft Teams surpassed 75 million daily active users, up from 32 million daily active users since March and now plan to increase visible participants in video calls from 9 to 492. Workflow platforms like Microsoft Teams have quickly become common practise in connecting people worldwide in many lines of business, education and even pleasure. Thanks to their simplicity and ease-of-use, people turned their cameras on, and the number of daily video call minutes rose into the hundreds of millions. Video conference will remain high on the priority list for communication and collaboration, even after returning to the office following lockdown, especially for Microsoft Teams users.

Team up Microsoft Teams and ClickShare Conference in any meeting
Efficient videoconference meetings help your customers across different locations to collaborate more closely, improve team integration and is the next best thing to being there. Barco’s ClickShare Conference wireless solutions enhances that same, efficient way of collaboration from any type of office meeting room.

Barco have designed the ClickShare Conference range to work seamlessly with Workflow solutions like Microsoft Teams, or your customers’ existing video conferencing platforms, and also with the audio and video USB-peripherals in the meeting room – such as microphones, soundbars and cameras – without the hassle of physically having to connect them with cables and adapters.

As people return to a very different office to the one they left 4 months ago, many of your customers will now have a need for BYOM – Bring Your Own Meeting – where they can start a Microsoft Teams call from their own laptop and minimize the items they touch.

In less than 7 seconds, with a single click of a button, your customer can connect wirelessly to the in-room display and the audio and video peripherals in their meeting room.

Barco’s ClickShare Conference solution enables them to run their Microsoft Teams call, share content on the meeting room screen, collaborate with interactivity features and push that same content to remote participants for a truly immersive and engaging meeting for all participants.
