Blog New Workspace Fixing the AV Gaps

Office spaces have changed over the last few years. Teams are more distributed, meetings are more dynamic, and collaboration often happens across screens as much as across tables. Yet many corporate AV systems are still stuck in the past.


The result is frustration. Meetings start late. Remote participants feel disconnected. Employees avoid using conference rooms altogether because the technology feels unreliable or overly complex. These issues don’t just slow teams down, they erode confidence in the workplace itself.


The Hybrid Meeting Gap

One of the most common challenges in today’s offices is inconsistency. A meeting room may work perfectly one day and fail the next. Audio drops, cameras don’t frame the room properly, or connections between platforms break down. When hybrid meetings feel unpredictable, productivity takes the hit.


A well-designed AV system removes that uncertainty by standardizing room experiences and ensuring reliable performance across platforms and spaces.


Legacy Technology in Modern Spaces

Many offices still rely on legacy conference room equipment that wasn’t designed for today’s collaboration needs. Aging displays, outdated cameras, and fragmented control systems make it difficult to support modern workflows.


Upgrading doesn’t always mean replacing everything. In many cases, a strategic refresh can integrate new components with existing infrastructure, extending value while dramatically improving usability.


When AV Goes Unused

Even the most advanced technology fails if employees don’t use it. Poor user adoption is often a sign that systems are too complex or inconsistent from room to room. AV should feel intuitive, not intimidating.


Thoughtful system design, clear interfaces, and proper user training help ensure that technology supports teams rather than becoming an obstacle.


Building a Smarter New Workspace

With budgets approved and new workspace strategies taking shape, this is an ideal time to evaluate how AV systems support day-to-day operations. A comprehensive AV assessment identifies gaps, prioritizes improvements, and creates a roadmap aligned with business goals, not just hardware upgrades.
