Create Your Own Luxury Retreat with Automation

Are you new to smart home automation? It’s much more sophisticated than a single smart bulb or voice-activated speaker. When you own a smart home system like Control4, the controller works like the brain of your house, connecting all your technologies, from smart window shades to security cameras. 

And with a smart home system, you can experience more than safety and convenience—you can create a place of ultimate luxury, like a wellness retreat or five-star luxury hotel.

Improve Presentations, Video Calls, and the Conference Room Experience

When gathering in the conference room for a presentation, does it require several minutes to assemble the display and audio? Do you need to find cables to connect a laptop to the main display or spend time emailing files back and forth to get the PowerPoint up? And when the meeting calls for someone else’s screen, are you back to finagling cables and files? 

What about meetings that involve both in-person and remote staff? Do you have an easy way to connect cameras and microphones for better communication? Or do your remote teams struggle to see and hear everyone in the boardroom?

Merge Zoom Video Conferencing with the In-Person Experience 

Does your company conduct video calls in the conference room? And if so, do your teams find themselves straining to hear clearly—asking “What was that?” to remote participants? And do remote employees have to make do with a wide shot of your conference table, unable to see or hear each person clearly? 

It may be time for a different approach. Zoom, the popular video conferencing platform, is helping businesses overcome the hybrid hurdle with its Zoom Room solutions. Zoom Rooms integrate conferencing devices into the video call, making it easy to start virtual meetings. 

As a commercial technology integrator, we help businesses across the Fort Worth, TX, area by installing sophisticated conferencing and Zoom Rooms systems. Here’s why Zoom Rooms are worth it for the modern-day company.

Our Tips for Better Outdoor Audio 

Wouldn’t you love to play your favorite albums and playlists outdoors this spring and summer? But if you only own a portable speaker, you may find it’s not strong enough to project sound across the lawn. Most portable speakers’ audio quality is thin, lacking the musical details you can hear indoors. 

To play music loud enough outside, many homeowners crank the volume, hoping it will reach all ends of the yard. But anyone standing near the stereo will experience deafening sound, and the audio may not extend as far as you’d hoped. 

Luckily, there is another way. Weatherproof outdoor speakers can stay mounted outdoors all year long, so you can enjoy music outside anytime. Here’s how to get the best outdoor audio in your Fort Worth, TX, backyard. To learn more, contact Texadia Systems here. 

How to Set Up Your Workforce Up for Success

Over the past few years, the way we work has immeasurably changed. What was considered a temporary solution to a challenging time became the new normal, and the hybrid workforce became an inherent part of today’s business climate.

So, how are companies responding to this changing workforce? According to a report by Microsoft, many leaders yearn for a return to what once was an office filled with staff. While 87% of employees surveyed said they felt productive, about 85% of leaders were less confident about their hybrid staff’s productivity. Yet, today, people expect autonomy and flexibility around where and when they work. 

How do businesses bridge the gap and ensure a productive and collaborative workforce? The answer is the growing collaboration space that enables employees to work together, whether in the office or halfway around the world. For this space to work, you need the right systems and technologies in place. 

Let’s explore what these spaces look like and how they’re helping businesses in Fort Worth, TX. To start creating productive collaboration spaces in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, contact Texadia Systems here.

Integrating Unified Communications Solutions with Legacy Systems Is Not Worth It

In today’s quickly changing digital world, technology seems to outpace a business's ability to keep up, leading to operating systems and infrastructure that become obsolete or outdated in record time. To maintain a competitive edge, companies understand the need to modernize these legacy systems or get left behind.

According to Data Science Central, 44% of CIOs believe legacy systems represent a major barrier to their company's growth.

One of the business solutions gaining tremendous ground is the new breed of unified communication solutions like Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Google Workspace, and others. These systems integrate all the forms of communication and collaboration, such as messaging, voice, videoconferencing, mobile applications, and document sharing, all with one common interface. 

As these solutions become standard, businesses in Southlake, TX, are looking to integrate them with their legacy systems, including video conferencing and older telephony solutions. And that’s where the problems begin. 

Here are the reasons this integration does not always work as planned. To find out more about the best way to integrate unified communications solutions into your Dallas-Ft. Worth business, contact Texadia Systems. 

Get an LED Lighting Design That Follows the Sun

The lightbulb’s invention changed everything. Suddenly, people could learn and work later in the day, spurring an industrial revolution. The light bulb reduced the number of house fires caused by candles, and people enjoyed more leisure time than ever. 

While we love the lightbulb, it does have its drawbacks. Humans weren’t technically meant to stay up all night, and if you’re using bright, cool-toned lights late in the day, you could be accidentally disrupting your circadian rhythm. 

But we’re in the midst of a new lighting revolution—the age of LED lighting design. With smart LED lighting systems, we can automate lights to complement and balance our internal clocks to live more healthily. 

Read on to see how tunable circadian lighting works and will benefit your University Park, TX home. Interested in a LED lighting design? Contact Texadia Systems to get started. 

Creating Lifestyle Homes with Smart Lighting, Entertainment, Security & More 

If homebuyers want to include home automation in their new home build, they should loop in a smart technology integrator. When a smart home expert is involved early in the designing process, they’ll work with the interior designer or home builder to bring the smart home to life. 

Just like a home builder works with electricians, plumbers, and other contractors, a home automation professional needs to be involved in AV, lighting, security, and other smart technologies. Here’s why a smart technology expert should be included in all luxury home-build projects and what you can expect from their service.

Music Lovers, See What You’ve Been Missing

Few things can transform a day like music. Even if you start your morning feeling stressed, tired, or overall ‘blah,’ once the first few notes of your favorite music play, it all melts away, and the air shifts. 

You can make music a more integral part of daily life with a high-end home audio system that brings sound to speakers across your house. Take your music listening beyond portable speakers, and get inspired by these home audio ideas below!

Build a System That Works for Your Security Needs

One of the surest ways to improve business security is to install an access control system. In large corporations, access control manages who can and cannot enter buildings and provides swift entry to your staff. 

While keys have historically functioned as ‘access control,’ they can be easily lost and are time-consuming to replace or issue. Plus, if hundreds or even thousands of people pass through your business, using keys will cause clusters at the door, letting unwarranted people slip in behind. 

Instead, integrated access control provides instant access through a turnstile or door with a quick tap of a card, phone scan, or other methods. And not all access control systems have to function the same. You can customize remote access control to meet your business’s unique needs.

Before installing a remote access control system, consider these four questions. And to get started with access control in the Plano, TX or Dallas/Ft. Worth area, contact Texadia Systems here. 

Get Creative & Engage with Customers through Stunning Video Displays

In the Harry Potter movies, we marveled at paintings that magically moved on the Hogwarts walls. Isn't it incredible that today, with technology like microLED displays, we can achieve that magic in real life? What once would have been a poster or TV can be replaced by sleek, ultra-thin video walls of any shape or size. 

You can use digital signage in endless ways at your business, like a blank canvas open for your imagination. Whether you’re enhancing the atmosphere or sharing critical information, digital signage is a smart way to engage customers in any industry. 

In this article, we’ll share three unique ways to use digital signs for your business. And the magic of it? You can change how you use it at any time.

How to Make Your Hotel the Business Destination in Dallas

When businessmen and women touch down in Dallas with briefcases and laptops, will they be heading to your hotel? 

Not if your conference rooms haven’t been updated in many years. After all, a lot has changed in the business world in the past few years, and if your meeting rooms are outdated, you’ll need updated AV that can support hybrid meetings. 

With the right tools in your meeting rooms, local and faraway businesses will likely choose your hotel for their next trips and conferences. And if the conferencing experience exceeds their expectations, they may even book your hotel every time they’re in town. 

Read on to see what hotel AV you need to succeed in the modern business world. And to upgrade your Texas hotel’s AV, contact Texadia Systems to get started today. 

How You Can Customize Your Smart Lighting System 

Have you used a smart bulb before? They’ve become increasingly popular in recent years and are even available at stores like The Home Depot and online on Amazon. While it’s fun to play with lighting colors from your phone, DIY smart bulbs aren’t a practical solution to illuminate your entire house. They often have trouble saving settings, don’t communicate with each other, and lack customization options. 

But there is an alternative. Sophisticated lighting control systems like Lutron and Control4 are built for whole-home control and are smart enough to group lights together and operate them on a schedule. 

The possibilities are nearly endless with high-end lighting systems that can be used to make your house look and feel more comfortable than ever. 

Here’s how you can control LED lights in your Southlake home with smart systems like Lutron and Control4. And to bring smart lighting to your Texas home, contact Texadia Systems here. 

Who Knew Window Shades Could Be So Beneficial?

Have you experienced the magic of motorized shades? 

Controlling multiple window shades at once is handy, especially when it’s done through a single tap of a button. But when you automate your motorized shades to follow a routine—and when you use the right kind of shading materials—you achieve incredible things. 

What kinds of things? When done right, your motorized shades help your home reduce energy consumption and even preserve your furniture, wall coverings, and artwork to last longer. 

While these benefits may seem far-fetched, below we’ll explain how automating motorized shades work wonders for your Dallas, TX home. And to learn more about smart home technologies, contact Texadia Systems here. 

The Pros & Cons of TVs vs. Projectors

Projector systems have long reigned supreme in home theaters. After all, TVs aren’t large enough to create the cinematic, immersive experience you expect to see in a movie theater. 

That is until recently. Brands like Sony have been manufacturing LED and OLED displays in larger dimensions than ever, now reaching 100 inches wide with the Sony BRAVIA XR X92. At more than eight feet in length, Sony’s 100-inch television can rival the image size of a home theater projector. 

But which should you use in your home theater design—a projector or 100-inch TV? We compare both below to help you find the best choice. 

And if you’re looking for a home theater installation in the Dallas, TX, area, contact Texadia Systems to learn more. 

Design Your Conference Room with Better Audio in Mind 

Aren’t hybrid meetings incredible? Some teams meet from the office while other participants are located elsewhere, and we can all still see and hear each other with tools like Zoom and Teams. 

If only it were that simple. In reality, many businesses need help to overcome technical difficulties with hybrid meetings. One major challenge is audio. Remote participants often cannot hear what people in the conference room are saying since the only microphone is at the front of the room. Likewise, in the conference room, the only speakers are below the display, making staff strain to hear and pay attention. 

Hybrid meetings in the conference room aren’t meant to be treated the same way as using a laptop. Instead, businesses need the proper conference room AV to create a successful collaboration experience. Here’s how we can build systems that help your McKinney, TX, business succeed.
