Overview

Amazon Fire tablets are the most budget-friendly option for deploying meeting room displays at scale. Starting at a fraction of the cost of other tablets, Fire tablets let you roll out meeting room signage across your entire office without breaking the budget.

Meeting Room 365 is available on the Amazon Appstore and supports Fire OS's built-in Show Mode for a seamless kiosk-like experience. Fire tablets also support Amazon's managed device features for enterprise deployments.
