Poly, one of the world’s market leaders in communication solutions, is helping today’s companies to take advantage of the Teams experience, with new solutions for convenient and efficient meetings.

The Poly solutions for Microsoft Teams Rooms offer a convenient clutter-free experience for businesses. Poly’s high-quality endpoints combine with the ThinkSmart Computing technology from Lenovo to drive a new future for teamwork.

The Poly Room Solutions for Microsoft Teams

To encourage better adoption among teams, Poly reached out to customers with Microsoft Teams Rooms services, as well as those considering deploying new rooms. The team found that the primary concerns from admin was around consistency and ease of deployment. Users want high-quality experiences that are simple and straightforward.

The Poly Room solutions don’t feature a mess of wires to overcome. There’s a simple cable management system to eliminate clutter, allowing for a sleeker room experience. Additionally, the compute and tabletop consoles only need one generous 10m fibre optic cable. This makes installation easier than ever.

To further enhance the simplicity of the experience, the Poly GC8 8-inch touchscreen console has a USB and HDMI port, so you can link your laptop and a USB phone to the same controller. For end-users, Poly even made sure that the meeting experiences would be as intuitive as possible. High-quality audio and intelligent NoiseBlockAI allow for more clarity in conversations.

These functionalities mean that meeting participants can keep the focus on the conversation, while enjoying dynamic and crisp video experiences.
