MergeSPACES - What it isn't

MergeSPACES isn’t just another meeting room solution. Discover what sets it apart - no CapEx, no one-size-fits-all, just a smarter way to scale AV.
February 25, 2025

When exploring Meeting Rooms as a Service (MRaaS), it's just as important to understand what MergeSPACES is not as it is to understand what it offers. Let’s clear up some common misconceptions and define what sets MergeSPACES apart from traditional meeting room solutions.

1. NOT your typical finance arrangement

MergeSPACES goes beyond simple financing arrangements. It is a consumption-based, pay-as-you-go model that includes advanced AV technology, comprehensive support, and continuous updates. Businesses don’t just get access to equipment; they get a complete, technology-driven collaboration environment with expert management.

2. NOT a one-size-fits all solution

MergeSPACES is not a generic, off-the-shelf product. Instead, it is a customisable service designed to align with your business’ technology and financial needs.

3. NOT a CapEx-heavy investment

Traditional meeting room technology implementations require significant upfront investment in AV equipment and infrastructure. MergeSPACES, however, follows a consumption-based model, allowing businesses to scale their meeting room technology without any capital expenditure.

Curious about how the AVaaS model is changing the game? Could the end of CapEx be the key to more flexible, cost-efficient solutions? Find out more in our blog here.

4. NOT just hardware deployment

MergeSPACES isn’t simply about installing conferencing hardware. It’s about ongoing management, seamless integration with platforms like Microsoft Teams Rooms, proactive monitoring, and expert support to ensure a frictionless experience.

5. NOT a set-and-forget model

Unlike static meeting room implementations, MergeSPACES evolves with your business. It continuously adapts with the latest technology advancements, software updates, and workplace demands, ensuring that businesses stay ahead of the curve.

6. NOT limited to a single vendor

MergeSPACES is not restricted to a single brand. It supports multi-vendor ecosystems, ensuring businesses have the flexibility to integrate solutions that best fit their requirements.

7. NOT just about technology

While technology is a crucial component, MergeSPACES is equally about user experience, ease of adoption, and maximising collaboration efficiency. The goal is to create memorable end user experiences and provide a service that empowers teams.

"It is important to design technology to fit people's needs rather than people having to fit technology." - Marty Clark, Founder & Managing Director. Learn more about our Forbes Australia feature here.

8. NOT ignoring sustainability

Does your meeting space technology strategy support a greener future, or does it add to the growing wave of tech waste? MergeSPACES helps businesses reduce e-waste by extending the lifecycle of AV technology, supporting certified recycling, and offering energy-efficient solutions. We can help support your sustainability goals while keeping your meeting spaces at the cutting edge.
