Hybrid meetings fail when remote participants can’t see or hear well. Dedicated room systems solve that.

What a room kit includes

A camera, microphones, speakers, a display, and a control panel or compute unit, all designed to work together.

Microsoft Teams Rooms

Deeply integrated with Microsoft 365, including calendar, Teams chat, and SharePoint. Best for companies already standardized on Teams.

Zoom Rooms

Platform-focused and often praised for simplicity and flexibility. Works well if your organization uses Zoom or needs to join a variety of meeting platforms.

Many systems are flexible

Several vendors now offer hardware that supports multiple platforms, though features are usually best on the platform the device is built for.

Choosing hardware

– Room size: small huddle rooms, medium, or large boardrooms need different cameras and microphones

– Camera: auto-framing and speaker tracking help hybrid participants feel included

– Audio: ceiling or table microphones for large rooms

– Displays: one or two screens, sized for the room

– Simple joining: one-touch meeting join

Don’t overlook

– Acoustic treatment of the room

– Lighting

– Network quality

– Licensing and management costs
