April 27, 2021 - As we consider plans to head back to the hybrid office, safety remains top of mind. With DTEN devices and Zoom Rooms, you already have a variety of options for minimizing person to person contact: Zoom App pairing, using a personal stylus, or deploying in-office phone booths and personal meeting spaces.

But what if you could cut out the shared surfaces entirely- yes, we're talking about starting your next Zoom meeting with the sound of your voice.

This new offering enables administrators to set up Alexa for Business with a few clicks within the Zoom Rooms portal itself and without having to purchase additional hardware.

With Zoom Rooms and Alexa for Business on DTEN devices, simplify your business flow and take control of your next Zoom meeting with voice commands like:

"Alexa, start the meeting"

"Alexa, find me a free room"

"Alexa, book this room"

"Alexa, end the meeting"

Alexa for Business lets employees be more productive at work. By linking Alexa for Business to the organization's calendar system, users can ask "Alexa is this room free?", or "Alexa, extend the meeting for half an hour."

Keeping employees on time is also essential, so Alexa even reminds employees when there are only 5 minutes left in a meeting. Alexa can also help them check the weather, stay up-to-date on the news or listen to their favorite podcast. Alexa has more than 100,000 skills to help make their lives easier and more meaningful by letting them voice control their world.
