When your business spans countries and continents, staying on top of your workplace technology can be challenging. From inconsistent service levels and too many vendors to rising operational costs and security risks, enterprise technology leaders are stretched thin when trying to keep everything running smoothly.
Too many organizations still rely on a break-fix mindset, addressing technology issues only after they’ve disrupted the working day and impacted users.
Organizations invest millions in workplace technology, yet the success of a meeting room often comes down to whether it works when people need it to. Every delayed start, dropped call, audio issue, or unsupported user creates frustration, wastes time, and reduces confidence in the workplace experience.
The UK is leading Europe in workplace monitoring, with 81% of British businesses saying employee tracking effectively discourages ‘quiet vacationing’ – employees secretly taking time off without requesting leave.
Meeting room downtime is a familiar problem, especially for businesses with hybrid teams. When the technology fails, meetings start late and people lose time. It also makes joining from another location more frustrating than it should be.
The UK's productivity continues to lag behind its European counterparts, with businesses struggling to balance innovation, worker wellbeing and outdated practices.
Managing meeting room technology has become more complex as work spreads across multiple offices and locations. Reliable, easy-to-use rooms are part of an impactful workplace experience, helping people connect and collaborate without unnecessary friction.
The AV industry is constantly shifting. As communication technologies become so deeply ingrained into our everyday lives, both at home and in the office, the nature of AV is continuously evolving to meet modern needs.
