Video conferencing solutions for office workplaces and home offices
In recent years, companies have been confronted with a number of challenges. This is especially true for the issue of teleworking. In the meantime, many employees can be found in the office again, but many companies now offer their employees more freedom and often rely on a balanced mix of presence work and home office. To ensure that the so-called "new work" functions smoothly, it is important to find the right solutions for collaboration. Some companies therefore no longer offer fixed workplaces but rely on "desk sharing". Desk sharing means that the workplace no longer belongs to a permanent employee, but is shared. Shared workstations are usually only equipped with a monitor and a video conferencing camera, and the employees then bring their notebooks with them. To prevent chaos from breaking out or employees suddenly not having a workstation available on site, new solutions are needed that show employees free workstations in the office or allow them to book them remotely. Even though the working world is constantly changing, the change can also bring advantages with the right technology. In this article, we would like to present our solutions for a smooth transition between presence and teleworking.
What is important in the home office and for presence work?
Basically, every workplace should be equipped with a professional business monitor. For collaboration with colleagues in the office, a professional video conferencing camera is required, which preferably offers directly integrated microphones with noise suppression. Employees should have optimal working conditions at every workplace so that they can concentrate fully on their work. Perfectly coordinated solutions are clearly superior here. We would like to show you here which products and solutions are available. Should you require further support, our team will be happy to help.
1. The business monitor
Business monitors are an indispensable part of any workplace. Thanks to the larger work surface, your employees not only benefit from a better overview. They can also display several windows and content side by side at any time. Today, business monitors are available both as classic display devices and with touch operation. In addition to size, other aspects are important for choosing the right monitor in the office. On the one hand, there is sufficient brightness, because this is the only way to work without problems even in bright ambient light. Secondly, a monitor should be height-adjustable and tiltable for ergonomic reasons. Connectivity should not be ignored either. Many employees today no longer want to work with external docking stations, but prefer a solution with only one cable, such as can be realised with USB-C. Some business monitors now also offer integrated switch and docking stations - an absolute plus for any home office. Take a look at our selected office monitors here:
2. Video conferencing cameras
Of course, you can also use a simple webcam, but you will quickly notice the difference between a 25-euro camera and a more expensive video conferencing camera. Professional cameras often have artificial intelligence that not only significantly improves the image, but usually also provides EPTZ functions. Video conferencing cameras are also often equipped with high-quality microphones that ensure better recording and block out distracting background noise. We offer both webcams and professional video conferencing cameras for the teleworkplace in our shop, so there is a camera for every purpose. See our recommendations here:
3. Practical solutions for desk sharing
Desk sharing works as follows: Each employee looks for a free workstation that suits him or her. In some cases, not all employees share a workstation, but only some of the employees. This is the case, for example, when working in a team and the employees are not present at the same time. Desk sharing can also be a practical option at any time in shift systems. With this modern solution, companies can save a lot of money: Employees do not have to be on site all the time, but can also work from home. In this way, companies can massively reduce not only office space but also operating costs. Desk sharing is a good solution to achieve this. However, in order for the shared desk to function smoothly, some companies resort to a booking system. This is particularly useful when a large number of workstations are involved or when only a small number of workstations are available. This way, employees can reserve a table for a certain time in advance. In other cases, employees simply take a seat that is not currently occupied and book it directly at their workplace. In this context, there are also solutions where employees are already shown in the corridor in which rooms there are still free seats available.
