Inspire Your Team to Focus & Maintain Privacy with Sound Masking

We often discuss how smart technology makes meetings more collaborative. But what about those blocks of time when you need to put your head down and focus on work or conduct an important call with minimal distraction?

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.

Consumer Products Won’t Cut It For Your Business

We are often asked to visit businesses in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex to fix the following issue: A business owner wanted to save time and money, so they decided to implement a product they were already familiar with using in their home. What they ultimately realize is what works really well in a home does not always translate to a commercial boardroom setting. Poor connections, lagging presentations, and inadequate device compatibility are just a few of the issues we’re called on to resolve for Texas businesses.

Do it right the first time – incorporate a commercial-grade product to support your company’s bottom line and your staff’s daily work endeavors. As the leading Crestron dealer serving the North Texas area and beyond, Texadia Systems expertly designs and installs business technology that provides your business the support it needs. Read on below to learn why Apple AirPlay can’t compete with Crestron’s AirMedia 2.0.

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.

Make the Smartest Choices for Your Dallas Business 

CapEx and OpEx—what is the difference? Well, that distinction can make quite an impact on your business’s taxes. 

Capital expenditure (CapEx) are funds your business uses to acquire, upgrade, and maintain physical assets, which could include updating property, landscaping, technology, or equipment. Operational expenditures (OpEx), however, are non-investment purchases that are related to recurring daily operations. For example, OpEx could cover rent, payroll, office supplies, marketing expenses, or transportation. 

So how does a business decide where to allocate CapEx funds? If you’re reading this article, you may be trying to decide if technology upgrades will be effective and financially feasible. In this article, we share how Dallas, TX businesses can use their CapEx funds more effectively.

The Benefits of Voice Over IP in a UC System 

When your company’s communication technologies rely on separate platforms and logins, it can lead to confusion and errors. Switching between different interfaces is frustrating and time-consuming, and new staff may struggle to navigate several websites to find the information and contacts they need. 

Luckily, there’s another approach. Unified communications (UC) consolidates your business’s phone, email, messaging, video conferencing, fax, and more into one seamless platform that’s intuitive for in-person and remote access. 

While the beauty of UC is that everything is integrated into one system, let’s focus on one element first: the phone. Even though video calls and instant messaging are more popular than ever, there’s still an essential need for quick, simple phone calling. Here’s how unified communication solutions can enhance your company’s phone system.

The Simpler Approach to Business Software & Hardware

Have you heard of AV as a Service? Also referred to as AVaaS, it’s a subscription plan that provides technology to your business for a monthly fee. So, whether you need conferencing displays, smart systems, digital signage, or touchscreens, it’s all part of the plan and can be swapped and traded out at any time. AVaaS also includes the installation, management, and technical support services with ongoing training for your team.

Traditionally, businesses would purchase all their hardware upfront. But as a new alternative, AVaaS covers all your needs within a monthly subscription. If you ever decide you don’t need equipment anymore, we’ll take it away and replace it with new hardware.

Some business owners ask us: why wouldn’t I want to own my technology? There are many reasons businesses in Dallas, TX, are switching to AVaaS and forgoing hardware ownership. You may find your company could benefit, too!

GO WIRELESS & SIMPLIFY THE CONFERENCE ROOM EXPERIENCE

Modern conference room AV is incredibly convenient and helpful—when it’s done right. We’ve seen many businesses in the Plano, TX, area that struggle with outdated conferencing systems that slow down their meetings.

This can change with a wireless conference room system that’s easy for everyone to use. Wireless content-sharing devices make it simple to share content on displays and speakers, while a room control system consolidates all room devices into one platform.

Return to the Office with Better Conferencing Experiences

Is your team returning to the office full-time—or embracing a hybrid model with some days remote? Many companies are excited about the prospect of being together in the office again, where personal connections and collaboration can thrive.

This is also a great time to reassess your conference room audio video. Is it built to accommodate virtual calls with remote workers or clients? Can your sound and video reach every eye and ear in larger spaces and auditoriums?

While you might be tempted to continue using the tech you’ve had for years, there are very valuable reasons why it’s worth it to upgrade to high-quality AV. Could your Plano, TX, business benefit from an AV installation? Contact Texadia Systems if you’re interested to learn more!

How to Make Your Conference Room Hands-Free

Wherever the “new normal” is heading, businesses of all kinds are going contactless. Restaurants have started curbside pickups with online payments and QR code menus. Meanwhile, most offices shifted to work-from-home, with video calls and Slack messages in the place of in-person meetings.

But not all jobs can be done remotely, and many people are aching to get out of their houses. As we return to our offices, we need to think of new ways to use technology effectively and safely.

That’s where touchless AV comes into play. Read on to learn how a touchless meeting room will work in your Dallas, TX office.

Should Your Texas Company Switch Too? Learn How AVas a Service Works 

What is AV as a Service? Also known as AVaaS, it’s a subscription plan that provides your business all the technology your staff needs, from conferencing hardware to digital signage. AVaaS plans include installations, maintenance, and technical support with ongoing training.
