ClickShare Conference (CX-20, CX-30, CX-50) in combination with Logitech videoconference solutions offers a very high quality Bring Your Own Meeting (BYOM) experience for simple meeting rooms to rooms where a high level of flexibility is required. For rooms equipped with a Room UC solution, CX-50 Gen2 in combination with the Logitech CollabOS Bars (Rally Bar, Rally Bar Mini, Rally Bar Huddle) or RoomMate provides a simple workflow with automatic Appliance/BYOD Mode switching.
ClickShare Conference offers wireless, easy-to-use, agnostic content sharing and conferencing from laptops. This is ideally paired with a Logitech MeetUp, Rally/Rally Plus or CollabOS Bar in BYOD mode for dedicated wireless BYOM rooms. Logitech CollabOS Bars and RoomMate provide a room-based experience for MTR, Zoom Room, and other UC services (“Appliance Mode”) in addition to “BYOD Mode” whereby the audio and video peripherals can be used in a UC client on a laptop. CX-50 Gen2 enables the latter with a wireless setup thanks to its automated switching capabilities.
Logitech offers a comprehensive portfolio of video conferencing solutions designed to cater to a variety of needs and budgets. All Logitech cameras boast high-resolution capabilities, intelligent features like automatic framing, grid and speaker view, and seamless integration with popular video conferencing platforms. Logitech prioritizes high-quality audio and video including noise cancelling, ensuring clear communication. Many Logitech products, especially all-in-one systems, require minimal setup and can be operational in minutes, streamlining the video conferencing experience.
Both ClickShare and Logitech devices aim for sustainability comprised of recycled materials, energy-efficient packaging, and power-saving modes, minimizing their environmental impact.
All the capabilities of ClickShare Conference and Logitech devices substantially improve meeting equity for hybrid environments.
