New Sharp Synappx mDesk for Initiating and Managing Online Meetings

On June 4th, Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America (SIICA)  announced the expansion of its Synappx platform of smart-office solutions.

Launched in October 2019, Synappx works in both Microsoft 365 and G Suite environments. According to Sharp, this latest expansion, featuring the Synappx mDesk experience, is designed to meet the increased demand for a flexible and virtual workstyle by making everyday collaboration more efficient and productive, whether working from home or the office.

According to a recent survey by Global Workplace Analytics, a research-based consulting firm, 75 million Americans have been working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic, and 25 to 30 percent will be working from home multiple days a week by the end of 2021. Additionally, workers also think that they would have a greater likelihood of success if they had more of the tools and resources to do their jobs when working from home.

Vince Jannelli, associate VP of Software Product Management at Sharp, explained: “With the Synappx mDesk experience, users can now start and manage meetings all from an easy-to-use, single meeting launcher, regardless of location or device.”

The Synappx mDesk brings Synappx Meeting into the virtual workplace, simplifying web conferences and enhancing collaborative creativity. It provides users with a convenient snapshot of their daily activities, from which they can choose to start any meeting with a single click. There’s no need to look any further for meeting times, URLs or meeting IDs. Additionally, a countdown timer reminds users to start on time. During a meeting, Synappx Meeting provides access to meeting materials, shortcuts, and agenda tracking. At the close of a meeting, sessions can be ended on time with a simple click.

The Synappx mDesk experience is currently available to all new and existing Synappx Go customers who can access it by downloading the latest Synappx Meeting application (V2.1) from the Microsoft, Apple or Google Play App Store.
