Together, the companies bring non-proprietary and agnostic solutions to hybrid meetings in business offices, conference rooms, and huddle spaces.
ALLEN, TX, March 25, 2021 – Newline Interactive is pleased to announce an alliance partnership with Barco ClickShare, a global leader in professional meeting room visualization & collaboration solutions.
Today’s meetings require more hybrid-friendly technology as meeting participants are a mix of in-person and remote team members. Newline meets this demand by offering products that maintain interactivity and collaboration while supporting all UC clients. Newline has joined the ClickShare Alliance Program of Barco to improve these hybrid meetings and create an immersive conferencing experience with ClickShare Conference. Newline’s RS, RS+, IP, and X Series are all officially compatible with Barco’s ClickShare Conference products.
ClickShare Conference systems allow meeting hosts to bring their own meetings and connect wirelessly to peripheral technology, instantly merging remote meeting participants with those in the room. This flexible solution is fully agnostic and fully compatible with Newline’s non-proprietary touch displays. Now, hybrid meetings are easier than ever regardless of the UC client you prefer.
“This partnership shows why it’s so important and beneficial to have non-proprietary hardware. Total compatibility from Newline products make it easier to partner with great brands like Barco and deliver new options to the end-user,” said Chris Bradford, president at Newline.
Newline displays offer a frictionless meeting experience for users who want the freedom to navigate between UC clients and those who are loyal to one preferred provider. The power is in the flexibility while not compromising other great features such as impressive touch, wide viewing angles, screen sharing, and modular designs for integrating a camera and microphone. ClickShare Conference elevates the experience for teams that need to connect remote participants without all the fuss and wasted time.
“Our partnership with Newline helps customers create truly better and interactive hybrid meeting experiences. The Newline interactive touch displays compatible with easy, wireless conferencing by ClickShare Conference offer seamless collaborative meeting room solutions where both in-room and remote users can fully engage and connect benefiting from unique touchback features. The future of work is only one click away.” says David Fitzgerald, vice president, Global Alliances at Barco.
