Overview

Any Windows PC can be turned into a dedicated meeting room display using browser kiosk mode. Whether you're repurposing an existing desktop, using a mini PC, or deploying a dedicated compute stick, Meeting Room 365 runs in Chrome or Edge kiosk mode to provide a full-screen, locked-down meeting room display. Windows Assigned Access mode provides enterprise-grade kiosk management for IT-managed deployments, and Group Policy can be used to further lock down the device.

Strengths & trade-offs

Where the Windows PC does well, and what to weigh.

Where it shines

  • Use IT-standard hardware you stock

Things to watch

  • More to manage than a tablet
What it powers

One device, part of the connected workplace.

The same Windows PC and the same account can run more than one screen, and every screen reads from one calendar.

Meeting Room TV

Drive the screen already in the room, so every meeting starts with one tap.

Status Board

Stand it in a lobby or hallway as an at-a-glance board for every room on the floor.

Map Display

Put the whole floor on one screen by the lift landing, rooms and desks alike.

Getting started

Live in four steps.

1

Create Your Account

Sign up for a free trial at admin.meetingroom365.com. Connect your Office 365, Exchange, or Google Workspace calendar.

2

Add Your Room

Add your meeting room calendar in the Meeting Room 365 admin portal. Configure display settings and themes.

3

Create a Kiosk Shortcut

Create a desktop shortcut to Chrome or Edge with the --kiosk flag and your display URL. Example: chrome.exe --kiosk --incognito YOUR_DISPLAY_URL

4

Configure Auto-Start

Move the kiosk shortcut to your Startup folder (Win+R > shell:startup) so it launches automatically on boot. Set up automatic login for unattended operation.
