Re: Alternatives to Crestron UC solutions

I can¡¯t say I¡¯ve tried it recently but I seem to recall having done it¡­ For Zoom I believe you should be able to run it in the Zoom mode and pair it (the TSW) as a controller to any zoom room using the pairing key.

?

For Teams I believe you¡¯re out of luck because a TSW in teams mode is essentially just a remote desktop/VNC session to the UC engine (this is much like with the Skype For Business UC-CODEC-100 but instead of it being a completely different SKU getting video over a DM (-like) connection the video comes over the network.

(I think part of this may be Microsoft¡¯s desire to have total control over the user experience and ¡°certified¡± solutions rather than the Mr. Potatohead approach and support nightmare supporting any combinations of hardware could lead to¡­but that is just a guess)

Subject: [crestron] Alternatives to Crestron UC solutions

?

Hi All,
Like others, we have a few project that we're needing to deliver in a few months instead of the year+ if we wait for Crestron equipment...
Are there 3rd party UC/Zoom/Teams solutions??
Has anyone have good experience with these?
Can we use the Zoom/Teams apps in the TSW-x70 systems to control the 3rd party UC equipment, like the Crestron UC?

TIA!
