As organizations work to boost productivity and maintain employee satisfaction, hybrid work and video conferencing have become essential tools. One of the most important trends shaping this landscape is BYOM—Bring Your Own Meeting.
Originally limited to huddle rooms, BYOM is now proving valuable in medium and large meeting spaces. It’s no longer just a flexible solution—it’s a scalable strategy for modern collaboration.
In the past, most video meetings relied on fixed in-room systems. But with the shift to hybrid work, employees started connecting from their own laptops, tablets, and phones. This change sparked a Bring Your Own Meeting movement, which allowed users to join meetings on their own terms.
Today, BYOM setups are being adopted in larger conference rooms. One-cable simplicity, high-quality video and audio, and compatibility with all major platforms have made BYOM a go-to solution for teams of all sizes.
With Boom’s ZYGO multi-connectivity hub and our Meeting Room-in-a-Box kits, any space can become a high-performing meeting room. Users simply connect their laptop and gain immediate access to video conferencing tools—without relying on IT staff.
These plug-and-play systems reduce complexity, lower costs, and work across platforms like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet. They’re also easy to scale across departments and offices.
Today’s workforce expects both flexibility and connection. Employees want the freedom to work remotely, but also value face-to-face collaboration. Businesses that want to succeed need to find the right balance. That means creating clear hybrid policies and outfitting meeting spaces with reliable, user-friendly video conferencing solutions.
In hybrid meetings, everyone should have an equal experience—whether they’re in the room or dialing in remotely. To achieve this, organizations need solutions that deliver clear audio, high-resolution video, and intelligent framing that brings all participants into focus.
Companies are prioritizing solutions that are flexible and easy to use. Key features in demand include:
AI-powered speaker tracking
Auto-framing cameras
Wireless content sharing
Multi-platform compatibility
USB-C and HDMI plug-and-play connections
This trend is pushing more businesses toward BYOM and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) configurations.
Resellers and managed service providers have an important role to play in this transition. Many businesses are still learning what BYOM really means. Those who can guide customers through this change with clarity and confidence will stand out.
Start by partnering with trusted brands like Boom Collaboration. Focus on reliable, easy-to-deploy solutions that fit the needs of small, medium, and large rooms. Help clients understand which products best match their environment and workflow.
As our co-founder Holli Hulett said:
"Desk phones still exist—and so will traditional systems. But BYOM meets people where they are. It’s flexible, powerful, and future-ready."
