Compare


Both Airtame and ClickShare are solutions for organizations looking for wireless collaboration tools. The key differences lie in cost-effectiveness, how performant video conferencing will be, and how the solution integrates with the local network infrastructure.

Hassle-Free Connectivity

ClickShare, with its dongle-based system, can be simpler to get up and running due to its network-independent setup. However, the reliance on physical dongles presents drawbacks. Dongles can break or go missing, disrupting the meeting. Additionally, the Clickshare solution requires running a native app on the user's laptop to start sharing. Airtame eliminates the need for physical dongles, providing a cleaner, more streamlined experience. Airtame leverages the existing network infrastructure and allows users to both share their screen and initiate video meetings directly from their browser without any installations and dongles attached.

High-performance Video Conferencing

Barco ClickShare runs video calls directly on the user's laptop, which can result in performance issues like lag, reduced video quality, and rapid battery drain. In contrast, Airtame supports leading platforms like Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, and Webex on dedicated hardware, delivering a more robust and high-quality conferencing experience.

Advanced Digital Signage

Airtame's digital signage capabilities offer greater flexibility and control compared to Barco's more basic webpage-based signage, giving organizations more options to effectively display content, without having to add additional subscriptions and platforms to manage.

Flexible Pricing and Deployment

Clickshare is a fully hardware-based platform with different options at different price points, while Airtame offers either hardware options with included subscriptions or a purely software-based solution that can run on existing hardware. The starting price for Clickshare solutions is significantly higher than Airtame. Additionally, the addition of an extra hardware element (buttons) increases the risk of having to allocate budget and resources to acquire and configure buttons if they break or go missing.
