Jabra launches platform for video device management

Software
Jabra has launched Jabra+ for Admins, a cloud-based API-first software platform for remote monitoring and management of meeting rooms and devices.

Jabra+ for Admins enables users to easily manage their communication devices. It also provides IT administrators with visibility and control over settings, firmware and insights from one unified software platform. They can also check in for real-time status updates from anywhere.

The new platform will pave the way for future experiences for IT administrators, end users, and partners – starting with meeting room and video device management that customers can sign up for via an Early Adopter Program, with wider availability this summer.

With Jabra+ for Admins, users can monitor and manage all Jabra meeting room solutions with a visual overview of rooms, locations, and devices. The user-interface, new design and enhanced intuitiveness make device management more accessible, providing a comprehensive solution for IT administrators.

The platform also allows users to manage all devices in a room collectively, optimising the in-room experience by remotely configuring devices and updating firmware. Added to that, the real-time online/offline status tracking of rooms and devices helps to identify immediate issues, reducing IT tickets and ensuring a seamless meeting experience.

As a unified software platform, Jabra+ for Admins can integrate with IT help desk systems and third-party tools to create an ecosystem for device management. Whether updating devices, customising headsets or integrating with Jabra devices, users engage with one system.

Jabra+ for Admins also uses the security and scalability of Microsoft Azure, providing a future-proof platform with Single Sign-On (SSO) for easy access. SSO enhances security by reducing attack surfaces and streamlining user authentication, resulting in a better user experience and alleviating IT burdens associated with password recovery.

Holger Reisinger, SVP enterprise solutions at Jabra said, “In the hybrid workplace where managing meeting rooms and multiple devices is increasingly complex, we understand the importance of simplicity and efficiency. This is why we created Jabra+ for Admins; a streamlined, secure platform that is easy to use. Users can now be more productive and spend more time on what makes their business thrive.”

Jabra will also showcase its latest video collaboration solutions, the Jabra PanaCast 50 and Jabra PanaCast 50 Video Bar System at ISE 2024. These cutting-edge solutions feature innovative AI-powered experiences, including the new Intelligent Meeting Space feature, which empowers users to personalise and set virtual meeting space boundaries, ensuring only relevant participants within this defined area are included.
