Which is Better? Poly Studio X50 or Neat Bar for Zoom Rooms
Posted by on
With the introduction of the all-in-one Zoom Rooms appliance, we wanted to do a side-by-side comparison of the Poly X50 and Neat Bar. Below is a quick video, about 3 minutes, which provides a comparison between the two products. Both are being used in the same room to provide a better comparison.
What is a Zoom Rooms Appliance?
Zoom Rooms Appliances are purpose-built to make it easier than ever to scale, deploy, and manage Zoom Rooms. It includes everything to video enable a conference room or meeting space. That means, the camera, audio, computer and room controller are integrated into as few separate products as possible. In most cases, this means a single wall mounted unit (camera and audio) and controller (compute and console). These are designed to work seamlessly, with a single cable connecting the two.
