AV Rooms Built for You.

Our team of AV professionals can help you assess the benefits and pain points of your current operating systems and diagnose the type of AV Room that would best suite your practice.

Call One Recognizes One Size Doesn't Fit All

The truth is most conference rooms technically work.

That’s not the same as being reliable.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone:
  • Meetings start late because something doesn’t connect
  • Every room has a different setup
  • Your executive team avoids certain conference rooms
  • IT gets pulled in to fix the same issues over and over
  • No one really “owns” the AV experience

From huddle spaces to executive boardrooms—we standardize the experience across all of them.

Built Around the Platforms You Already Use

  • Microsoft Teams Rooms
  • Zoom Rooms
  • BYOD/Hybrid environments, Google Meet, and others

Microsoft Teams Rooms

Microsoft Teams rooms built with MTR certified products ensure your AV room will help mitigate the need for third-party control.  We have found that this strategy lowers the overall cost of the system and reduces the maintenance required post-installation.

If your company is already invested in Microsoft 365, values security/compliance, wants deep integration with existing workflows (calendars, docs, file sharing), or needs advanced collaboration features Microsoft Teams Rooms are a better fit.

There are multiple benefits to ​a Microsoft Teams Room ​setup including:

  • Deep integration with Microsoft 365 / Microsoft ecosystem - MTRs integrate natively with tools like Outlook, OneDrive / SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 services.  For example, recordings automatically save to One Drive and locations may be adjust through admin policy. 
  • Advanced collaboration features- The following features that are unique to a Teams room: 
    • Automatic Checking – Rooms may be automatically released if the meeting doesn’t start.  This feature may be enabled in the Teams Admin portal.  
    • Digital White Boarding – The use of whiteboard to documents in the O365 environment.  Role based permissions and security features carry over to whiteboard and other collaboration features. 
    • Proximity Join – Bluetooth and ultrasound options allow the Teams App on a user’s phone who is part of the tenant to join or control meetings from a mobile device.  The feature simplifies launching spontaneous meetings. 
  • Front Row - an immersive feature that optimizes screen sharing while displaying remote users.   The screen shot below displays 4 elements of a Teams meeting including chat and hand raising.  Other options permit the optimization of content sharing and a unified background. 
  • Collaboration with Other Platforms – (MTR to Zoom / Webex) Some features native specifically to Teams are not available in Zoom or Webex, but that is changing with firmware updates.*
*SIP / H.323 are required for cross-platform meetings via an interop.

Zoom Rooms

Zoom based rooms are a UC (unified communications) product meaning a lot of ability to have cross platform interoperability.   

Zoom Rooms offer better collaboration options for other platforms (Webex, Google, etc…).  Zoom can also be more accommodating to guests and meeting attendees in the room but not on the tenant.  Zoom also has wireless control options including an iPad solution.

There are multiple benefits to a Zoom Room setup including:

  • Flexibility and platform-agnosticism – Zoom Rooms is more “vendor-neutral” and supports integrations across a wide range of third-party services outside Microsoft (e.g. Google Workspace, Slack, other calendar and collaboration tools). 
  • Simplified Guest Access – The Zoom Room user interface, architecture and approach simplify access for external guest and clients (people not connected to the tenant).
  • Video-First Experience – Zoom Rooms have more features for video and audio performance.  For example, the platform provides settings for camera boundaries which is a hardware dependent feature.  Zoom Rooms also support the Dante standards which enable virtual connections to a growing number of microphones, speakers and other audio peripherals.
  • Wireless Control – Zoom Rooms offer a wireless control option which includes an iPad solution.  MTRs do not offer a wireless control option at the time this summary was created. 
  • Simplified Sharing Options– Similar to Teams Rooms Zoom provides proximity join for ultrasonic sharing but adds a few notable features:  
    • HDMI Sharing at 60fps (Windows only) 
    • Receives multiple simultaneous shares. 
    • Wireless sharing via the Zoom client with just a sharing key (which is displayed in the top corner of the display).  Sharing is much easier for people who are not on the tenant compared to an MTR.
  • Collaboration with Microsoft Teams (Zoom Room to Teams) - Some features native specifically to Teams are not available in Zoom even with an interop, but there are some features available even direct dial without an interop, some of these may change with firmware updates.

BYOD/ Hybrid setups

What You Actually Get:

BYOD / Hybrid setups have positive and negative benefits.  They can lessen initial setup costs, but require the need of an adapter hub, and more IT management to maintain security, since external devices take the place of an in the room setup.  These rooms also may require more IT calls on meeting startup because they aren't 1 touch join like Zoom and MS Teams.

There are benefits to a BYOD Room setup including:

  • Ease-of-Use : Since the room is run off the presenter's own laptop they do not need to learn any new systems.
  • Platform Flexibility : Most BYOD rooms are platform agnostic unlike MS Teams or Zoom specific rooms.
  • Lower Upfront Costs : The initial hardware costs are lower for BYOD / Hybrid rooms but may require more IT help with meeting setup.

AV Room Types

AV environments designed around how people actually meet

Different spaces require different AV planning. We help organizations choose the right setup based on room size, meeting style, platform needs, and user behavior.

The right room design starts with the way your team collaborates.

From huddle rooms to training spaces, we help match the AV system to the environment — not the other way around.

How to Think About Room Types

The best AV room is not the most complex room. It is the room that fits the way people use it.

Room type planning is about more than seating capacity. The right system depends on how people present, collaborate, join remotely, move through the room, and share content.

We look at layout, acoustics, camera coverage, platform requirements, display visibility, and user expectations before recommending equipment.

  • Client experience rooms
  • Hybrid presentation spaces
What Changes Between Rooms

Every room has variables that affect performance

Room Size

Affects microphone selection, display size, camera coverage, and speaker placement.

Table Layout

Changes where people sit, how cameras frame participants, and how audio is captured.

Remote Participation

Determines how much emphasis should be placed on camera quality, audio clarity, and content sharing.

Acoustics

Impacts speech clarity, microphone performance, and the overall meeting experience.

Platform Needs

Rooms should align with Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, or your preferred collaboration tools.

Flexibility

Multi-use spaces need AV systems that can adapt without becoming hard to operate.

Not Sure What Your Rooms Need?

We help you choose the right AV approach before equipment is selected.

A room type is only the starting point. The right solution depends on your people, platforms, layout, and support model.

Our team can help assess your spaces and recommend a practical path forward.
