This Android-based framework brings built-in security and enterprise-grade IT functionalities, allowing Barco to build upon ClickShare’s reputation for simplicity and user-friendly experience. Let’s break down what this means for the future of hybrid collaboration.
Partnering with Microsoft: What It Means for You
The integration of Microsoft’s Device Ecosystem Platform into ClickShare means that future ClickShare products will benefit from Microsoft’s trusted infrastructure, creating an even more seamless experience for users and IT administrators alike. According to Jan van Houtte, EVP Meeting Experience at Barco, “ClickShare will continue to focus on providing simple, premium experiences while leveraging Microsoft’s expertise in security, manageability, and AI capabilities.”
For users, this translates to heightened confidence in the security and performance of their meeting spaces. For IT departments, it means easier management of meeting room devices, ensuring all systems are updated and functioning optimally, no matter the scale of the deployment.
