Windows Tablets
Add your calendar to Meeting Room 365 and use your Windows Tablet as your meeting room display.
Windows tablets provide a versatile option for meeting room displays, especially in organizations already using Windows infrastructure. Meeting Room 365 runs in any modern browser, so you can use Chrome or Edge in kiosk mode to create a dedicated meeting room display.
Windows tablets support enterprise features like Assigned Access for managed kiosk mode, making them ideal for IT-managed deployments. Surface tablets and other Windows devices offer excellent display quality and touch responsiveness.
