Why Flexibility and Ease-of-Use are Crucial for Modern Meeting Rooms
Many Australian businesses are facing the challenge of outdated meeting room setups, especially at a time when hybrid work is becoming the norm. Flexibility and ease of use in meeting rooms aren’t just nice-to-haves—they’re essentials. Engagis can help upgrade your office tech. No more fumbling with complicated systems or dealing with tech glitches that disrupt the flow of meetings.
The Current Landscape
Let’s start by taking a look at the current landscape of the modern meeting room environment.
(1) The Challenge of Outdated Technology
During the pandemic, a lot of companies hurried to cobble together video conference systems. Many of those technologies are becoming outdated now. It’s not keeping up with today’s needs and often falls short of delivering a smooth experience.
(2) The Hybrid Work Conundrum
The future of work is still up in the air—some companies are sticking to the office, others are going remote, and many are opting for a mix. Whatever the choice, the technology in meeting rooms needs to be adaptable. It should work with various platforms, not tie you down to just one. BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and systems that talk to each other can help achieve this flexibility.
The Importance of Flexibility and Ease-of-Use
Flexibility and ease of use are extremely important to businesses and end users.
(1) Benefits to End Users
It’s all about making life easier. Being able to switch smoothly between different meeting platforms is a game changer. User-friendly interfaces mean you don’t need much training. You can just walk in and start your meeting without fuss.
(2) Benefits to Businesses
For businesses, flexibility means you’re not locked into one system. This reduces risk and gives you options. Plus, when meetings are easy to run, employees are happier and more productive. That’s a win-win.

Understanding BYOD in AV for Meeting Rooms
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) allows employees to use their personal devices—like laptops, tablets, or smartphones—in meeting rooms. Instead of relying on expensive, specialised equipment, they can connect with the tools they’re already familiar with. BYOD provides many benefits such as:
(1) Flexibility
One big benefit of BYOD is its flexibility. It makes meetings more dynamic and flexible to changing demands by enabling employees to move between platforms and devices with ease.
(2) Ease-of-use
Another key benefit is the comfort and ease of use that comes with BYOD. Employees are naturally more comfortable using their own devices, which they know inside out. This familiarity reduces the learning curve and leads to quicker, more efficient meetings. When people aren’t struggling with unfamiliar technology, they can focus on what really matters—collaborating and getting work done.
