ClickShare
The one click wonder
Collaboration made easy
Improving meeting dynamics and reaching decisions faster are two of the main
challenges in meeting rooms today. Barco’s ClickShare collaboration tool gets all
participants more involved by giving everybody the opportunity to share content –
at the click of a button. Whether you are using a laptop PC, Mac, iPad, iPhone
or Android-powered device, you can present your content on the central
meeting room screen in the most simple and intuitive way possible.
Instant
Simple
Interactive
Connect, click, and share. That’s what
ClickShare stands for. No hassle with
cables, no configuration, no re-adjusting
your laptop’s resolution. Using the optimal settings for your system, ClickShare
gives you access to the large meeting
room screen – instantly.
ClickShare is the most intuitive product
imaginable. With only one button to
push, little is left to figure out: all of the
basic functionality is optimized for use
with a single click.
ClickShare enables everybody to share
content on the large meeting room
screen. By stimulating the participation
of all attendees, meetings are more interactive. More good ideas come out,
discussion is more thorough, and decisions are taken more quickly.
The unmatched laptop experience
Your laptop contains a wealth of valuable information. But if sharing with other meeting
participants is difficult and time-consuming, you sometimes keep it to yourself.
The unique ClickShare Button gives you the simplest and fastest access to the meeting
room screen. So, you can quickly use additional information to communicate your
vision. The result: faster and more profound decision-making.
Always the right resolution
To ensure that your content is
displayed on the right screen,
every ClickShare Button is
paired with a ClickShare Base
Unit. The pairing process is
quick and simple, so meeting
participants can connect a Button and start sharing without a
problem. Additional Buttons can
be purchased to increase the number of participants ready to share.
How it works
The ClickShare Button is a USBpowered device that helps create
the system’s ultimate user experience. Simply connect the device to your
laptop’s USB port, start the application
and click the button – your laptop’s
screen content is transferred instantly to
the large meeting room screen display.
Connecting a ClickShare Button to your
laptop does not change your screen
resolution. ClickShare’s intelligence considers all the equipment involved and
makes sure the best possible resolution
is used on the central meeting room
screen.
Extended desktop
If you want to have different content on
your laptop screen than what you share
on the meeting room screen, you can
use Windows’ extended desktop functionality. Then, for example, you can
view additional notes on your laptop
as you show the slides on the central
screen.
Enjoy sound & video
Great wireless fidelity
ClickShare lets you channel your laptop’s
sound through the meeting room’s audio system. At last, you can enjoy great
sound with your video.
To ensure the wireless connection and
a consistent image quality, ClickShare
uses both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

ClickShare in the enterprise: it keeps getting easier
The Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) trend is quickly gaining popularity in meeting rooms
across the globe. Wherever business professionals gather, the table is likely to be filled
with laptops, tablets and smartphones with different brands and operating systems.
The question is: how can they work together seamlessly and without hassle to make
meetings more effective?
Feel free to bring your own device
A recent study by Barco shows that 73% of European managers want to use their own
device to show content on the meeting-room screen. But only 14% feel like they can
do so in a comfortable way today. The need for a reliable,
user-friendly solution has become acute.
