Managed Meeting Room Provider

As managed meeting room provider, ThingsAt offers fully serviced and equipped meeting spaces for businesses, where we handle all logistics and technology needs. We ensure the room is ready for use, complete with audiovisual equipment, Wi-Fi, and any necessary supplies. We also offer support services such as setup, troubleshooting, and catering arrangements. By managing the booking process, cleaning, and maintenance, we allow businesses to focus on their meetings without worrying about the details. This service is particularly useful for companies that require professional spaces without the overhead of owning or maintaining them.

Throughout the meeting room lifecycle ThingsAt will provide proactive monitoring, advising any issues with connectivity including root cause analysis and make recommendations for fixes. We proactively advise customers of outages and upcoming risks such as ageing infrastructure and potential storage issues. We also monitor and report on staff and user feedback.

Other insights we provide include monthly reports on usage such as actual and ad hoc room usage, room utilisation and attendee analysis. We also provide SLA-backed vendor-based hardware support in the event of hardware failure to ensure quick rectification and minimal downtime.



Managed Meeting Room Service

ThingsAt provides a streamlined Managed Meeting Room Service (MMRS) which includes the design, delivery and ongoing governance and management of your meeting room requirements, making it easier and more cost-effective to manage and secure your meeting room systems while improving and streamlining the way users are communicating and collaborating.

MMRS is a way to outsource the setup, monitoring and technical support for a company’s meeting rooms. It provides proactive monitoring and technical support direct to end-users and covers areas such as faulty devices, meeting room usage and threat detection in a single per room per month fee.

Being hardware and vendor agnostic, ThingsAt MMRS delivers a consistent and unified approach both from a user experience perspective as well as an IT management perspective.

The outcome? Everything just works from the moment you step in- side the room. The visual and audio quality match the room size, type and set-up, ensuring a better employee and customer experience.

 At the end of the leasing solution ThingsAt will work with you to plan an End of Life (EOL) timetable- whether that be “sweating” the asset for an additional time for cost savings, the return of hardware to the leasing partner or the ethical disposal of the hardware e.g., recycling or donation to charity.

Once a solution is agreed, ThingsAt will project manage and undertake the EOL plan and organise the replacement of the new meeting room equipment and maintenance for the next leasing cycle.
