Sony Updates Workplace Management Solution
Sony Professional Solutions Europe has released TEOS Manage 2, an overhaul of its scalable workspace solution for facilities in corporate and education environments.
TEOS Manage 2.0 boasts 65 new features and functions, including a new mobile room-booking app for employees, advanced analytics, remote firmware updates, a newly-designed universal remote control, and a more secure visitor check-in process.
The company also claims the platform which is used by more than 150 companies in Europe will help organisations improve employee productivity, citing a research finding by DEGW that employees waste 27 minutes every day (or more than 117 hours or 15.5 working days, annually) arranging meetings.
Announcing the update, Thomas Issa, Corporate and Education Solutions Manager for Sony Professional Solutions Europe, said:
"The key to optimising workplace productivity is ensuring employees get the most out of the spaces around them and the devices at their disposal.
At the same time, organisations need solutions that collect and present data in a clear way, and that allow them to make smart decisions to meet their strategic real estate goals.
"We pride ourselves on working closely with our customers to develop efficient and effective solutions tailored to help them address the real-life challenges of managing vast workspaces, and the latest iteration of TEOS Manage is no exception to this rule with its extensive new features and improvements designed to unlock the true potential of both the workforce and the workplace."
New features introduced by TEOS Manage 2.0, include:
This includes room booking processes, device control and mirroring – including a call for help function in case users need assistance.
This will allow them to ask questions such as ‘How was your experience today?’ and receive real-time response data.
The customisable interface is easy to use and requires no programming.
Meanwhile, a content cache system prevents network overload.
