Crestron, the global leader in workplace technology, announces Crestron Flex MM, a sleek and compact best-in-class audio and video conferencing solution and an easy-to-use, deploy, and manage tabletop meeting and collaboration system. With native Microsoft Teams® or Zoom Rooms™ software, Crestron Flex MM is ideal for newly converted or dedicated small workspaces both in the corporate office and the home office.
Organizations must be flexible and agile when addressing evolving workplace needs in the COVID-19 work era. Crestron leaned into its expertise in enterprise AV and UC technology to engineer and deliver multiple new product solutions for successful hybrid working environments. Crestron Flex MM meets the growing demand for best-in-class conferencing technology in any work or learning space.
Crestron Flex MM brings quality tabletop video conferencing to small spaces while delivering one-touch connectivity in a compact footprint. The device features a sleek and sophisticated design with a 40% reduction in size, without sacrificing high-performance audio and video quality found in the tabletop series of devices.
The office of six months ago will be forever changed
Work from anywhere has become a widely accepted concept and even those returning to an office are redefining collaboration and finding new ways to connect with colleagues, partners, and customers – whether hours away or simply in the office next door. The new office perk is access to video conferencing and collaboration technology, as employers seek ways to encourage interaction and support productivity. Crestron forecasts that as companies migrate former huddle spaces into hotel spaces for workers and convert conference rooms into dedicated small team workspaces or management offices, investment in smaller footprint but high performance UC devices that bring enterprise level professional audio and video conferencing solutions to all working environments will increase.
“The pandemic has dramatically shifted the way we work and the spaces we work in,” said Andrew Gross, Director, UC Enterprise at Crestron. “Microsoft Teams and Zoom are household names, huddle rooms and conference spaces are being redefined to team units, and our desks are overrun with migratory devices that are never ready for the next video call. Crestron is quickly engineering products to solve these problems. The future of work is in Crestron’s DNA and solutions such as Crestron Flex MM demonstrate our continuous innovation in enterprise technology that allows people to work efficiently and effectively from anywhere.”
