Microsoft Teams Rooms Dubai — HP Poly Certified. One Touch. Every Room.
Your company is on Microsoft Teams. The licences are active. The software works on laptops. The one place it doesn't work properly is the meeting room — because the hardware in it connects to Teams via SIP, which is not the same thing as Microsoft Teams Rooms, and the people on the other end of every call already know it. HP Poly certified Teams Rooms systems. Installed across all seven UAE emirates.
Certified vs Compatible — Why It Matters in Your Meeting Room
Before you buy anything, understand this one difference. It determines whether your meeting room stays current for the next six years — or whether you're back in this conversation in eighteen months.
"Compatible" means the system can make a Teams call. The Polycom Group Series your office has had since 2016 is compatible with Teams. It connects via SIP. The call goes through. And then the problems start. No one-touch join. No calendar integration. No live captions. No recording. No AI summaries. No Teams Rooms feature updates — ever. Every time Microsoft releases something new for Teams Rooms, compatible systems receive nothing. The gap between what your room can do and what a properly certified room can do grows every month, invisibly, until it becomes a boardroom embarrassment.
"Certified" means Microsoft has specifically tested the hardware — audio quality in noisy environments, video performance, touch controller responsiveness, calendar integration with Exchange, one-touch join behaviour, security posture — and issued the hardware a certification that is renewed with every major Teams update. A certified HP Poly system on VideoOS 5.0 receives every Teams Rooms update automatically. It stays current. It stays supported. Your investment compounds over time instead of depreciating.
What certified gives your room
- One-touch join from the TC10 controller — tap the meeting on screen, call starts
- Calendar integration with Exchange and Outlook — today's meetings appear on the controller before anyone walks in
- Live captions in every Teams call — built-in, no configuration needed
- Meeting recording and intelligent recap — available directly from the room system
- Teams Admin Center visibility — IT can see the room's health from the Microsoft portal
- Every Teams Rooms feature update — delivered automatically as Microsoft releases it
- Microsoft's enterprise security framework — applied to the room hardware directly
- Certified through 2032 on VideoOS 5.0 — documented, published roadmap
What SIP-compatible misses
- No one-touch join — someone dials in manually every time
- No calendar integration — no meeting list on any controller screen
- No live captions — the feature simply does not exist in SIP mode
- No recording from the room — must use a laptop workaround
- No Teams Admin Center visibility — IT is blind to the room's status
- No Teams Rooms feature updates — the room is frozen at the Teams version from when it was configured
- No Microsoft security updates — the hardware operates outside Microsoft's management framework
- No lifecycle commitment — certification could be deprecated at any update
The honest question: If your current system dials into Teams via SIP, it is in the right column above. The hardware isn't broken. But it isn't a Microsoft Teams Rooms system. It is a video conferencing system that can make a Teams call. The difference is felt by every person who walks into your meeting room. → WhatsApp to understand your options
How HP Poly Teams Rooms Features Solve Real Dubai Office Problems
These are features documented in HP Poly's firmware release notes and admin guides — combined in ways that solve problems your Dubai office has right now. None of these appear on any other supplier page in the UAE.
The Camera That Shows the Whole Corridor
Every glass-wall meeting room in Dubai's open-plan offices has this problem. The camera sees corridor traffic. It is unprofessional, distracting, and completely solvable — with a feature most people have never heard of.
DirectorAI Perimeter lets an administrator draw a boundary zone directly on the TC10 screen. The camera's AI only tracks people inside that zone. Anyone outside it — corridor walkers, adjacent desks, the area behind the whiteboard — is excluded from framing entirely. The boundary is set once in Admin Settings. Ten minutes. A glass-wall room becomes a clean, contained meeting space. The corridor stays invisible.
The Floor Where Nobody Knows Which Room Is Free
The TC10 touch controller has a mode most people don't know exists. Mounted outside the room door in standalone Microsoft Teams Panel mode, it displays the room's Exchange calendar — current meeting, next meeting, full day availability. The LED status bars on the left and right edges of the screen light green when the room is free and red when it is occupied. Visible from 10 metres down the corridor without reading the screen.
The same TC10 that operates as the in-room Teams Rooms controller on one side of the door is the room booking panel on the other. One device. Two modes. No additional hardware cost. The floor where nobody knew which room was free becomes a floor where everyone knows at a glance.
The Premium Boardroom That Sounds Hollow on Every Call
HP Poly's firmware release notes contain a specific feature for this exact problem: Sound Reflection Reduction. It is a software toggle in the VideoOS system web interface, designed specifically for rooms with hard reflective surfaces — marble floors, glass walls, high ceilings. When combined with DirectorAI's AI noise blocking and VideoOS 5.0's multi-microphone audio mixing, the system compensates for the room's acoustic characteristics in real time.
The premium DIFC boardroom that sounds hollow on Teams calls has a firmware toggle that addresses it directly. No acoustic panels. No contractor. No additional cost. The feature is documented and available. It takes five minutes to enable. Most Dubai IT managers don't know it exists because nobody has told them.
The 20-Person Boardroom With One Controller at the Wrong End
The HP Poly G7500 supports up to four TC10 controllers simultaneously on a single codec. One at each end of the table. One on the side credenza. One mounted outside the room door as the Teams Panel. Every person in the room has a controller within reach. The IT configuration is identical to a single controller — Poly Lens manages all four from the same profile. No additional server. No additional license.
The cost of three additional TC10 units is a fraction of the boardroom fit-out. The senior partner who had to walk to the front of the room never mentions it again. That is what a properly specified G7500 boardroom looks like.
Windows Update at 67% Five Minutes Before the Client Call
Every meeting room that runs a Windows PC to host Teams has this anxiety. Patch Tuesday. Antivirus scans at 9AM. Disk failures before the board meeting. The PC is another machine to manage, update, secure, and replace on a lifecycle that has nothing to do with your meeting room needs.
HP Poly X-series and G-series systems running VideoOS 5.0 on Android 13 run Teams Rooms natively — no PC in the room at all. The system IS the computer. Android 13 doesn't do Windows Update mid-call. It doesn't run antivirus. It doesn't need a district IT engineer to patch it. Poly Lens manages firmware updates across all rooms simultaneously, on a schedule IT controls, during hours that don't affect meetings. The PC anxiety disappears because the PC is no longer there.
Ten Rooms Commissioned Without IT Visiting Any of Them
With Poly Lens zero-touch deployment, the IT manager configures all settings in a Poly Lens device profile before the hardware ships to site — Teams resource account, calendar sync, DirectorAI preferences, audio settings, network configuration. When each system connects to the building network on first boot, it downloads the profile automatically and applies every setting without human intervention.
Ten rooms reach the same configured state without IT visiting a single one. The contractor installs the hardware. The systems configure themselves. IT reviews the Poly Lens dashboard the following morning and sees ten green rooms. The IT manager in Abu Dhabi stays in Abu Dhabi.
The DIFC Office Where Every Device Must Carry a Valid Certificate
HP Poly's SCEP (Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol) integration automates certificate management entirely. Certificate enrollment happens automatically when devices first join the network. Renewal happens automatically when certificates approach expiry. Poly Lens pushes the SCEP configuration policy to every device simultaneously. 3072-bit certificates are supported for enhanced security strength — above the previous 2048-bit standard.
The compliance team's requirement for valid device certificates across all meeting rooms is met without any manual IT intervention per device. For regulated financial services firms in DIFC, ADGM, or government entities — this is a procurement requirement, not a preference. HP Poly has it documented and deployable.
The IT Director Who Sees Problems Before the CEO Does
The Poly Lens Room App for Microsoft Teams Rooms gives IT two layers of visibility in one dashboard. The device layer — from Poly Lens — shows camera status, audio performance scores, firmware version, and device health for every HP Poly system in the fleet. The platform layer — from Teams Admin Center — shows call quality, network performance, and Teams app status from the Microsoft side.
A meeting room in the Abu Dhabi office that consistently shows degraded audio quality scores surfaces in Poly Lens on Monday morning before the first user complaint arrives. IT identifies the issue — microphone sensitivity setting, network packet loss, outdated firmware — and resolves it remotely before Tuesday's board call. The IT director who shows the CEO a dashboard with 20 green rooms has a different kind of Monday than the one who opens their email to three complaint messages.
The Right System Starts With the Room. Not the Spec Sheet.
Every system below is Microsoft Teams Rooms certified on VideoOS 5.0, runs Android 13, and carries HP Poly's documented support commitment through 2032. The difference between them is room size and camera architecture — not platform or certification level. Choose by room. The system follows.
Poly Studio X32
The small room that used to mean a laptop propped on a pile of notebooks, pointing at the ceiling. The X32 replaces that permanently. One PoE cable — power and network — is all that connects it. It boots into Microsoft Teams Rooms. The TC10 controller shows the day's Outlook calendar. Someone taps the meeting. The call starts. DirectorAI frames the room automatically. No one touches a laptop. No one hunts for a cable. The room that nobody wanted to book because setup was painful becomes the room that just works.
Poly Studio X52 + TC10
The 10-person conference room is the most common meeting space in Dubai. Business Bay. DIFC. JLT. The X52 fits this room so precisely it feels purpose-built for it. A 20MP 4K camera with 95-degree field of view covers the full table. Six-metre microphone pickup means the person at the far end is heard as clearly as the person next to the screen. DirectorAI tracks the active speaker without anyone touching a control. The TC10 controller shows today's Outlook meetings — one tap to join. If you have a Polycom Group 500 in this room, the X52 goes in the same position on the same display with the same cable run. The quality is not comparable.
Poly Studio X72
The large conference room has always been the hardest room to equip properly for Teams. One camera at one end makes the people at the far end a blurred row of faces. PTZ cameras require an operator. The X72 solves this architecturally. Two 4K cameras in a single unit. A 120-degree wide-angle lens covers the full room. A 70-degree telephoto focuses on the active speaker. DirectorAI switches between them based on who is talking — automatically, continuously. VideoOS 5.1 (expected Q3 2026) adds predictive switching using AI to anticipate speaker changes before they happen. Remote participants see the right person. Always.
⚠ X30 & X50 — Microsoft Teams certification expires September 2026
If you are looking at Poly Studio X30 or X50 — stop. Both run Android 10 and will not receive VideoOS 5.0. Their Teams certification expires September 2026. After that, no updates, no security patches, no new Teams features. The X32 and X52 are priced comparably and are certified through 2032. Any supplier still selling X30 or X50 without this warning is not looking after your interests.
Boardrooms, Auditoriums & Complex Spaces
Poly Studio G7500
The G7500 is where all-in-one video bars stop being the right answer. When the room seats 30 people around an executive table and the CEO sits 10 metres from the screen — a video bar's camera, positioned at display height, cannot frame everyone meaningfully. When the training centre splits into two independent spaces — a single all-in-one system cannot run two simultaneous calls. The G7500 was built specifically for these rooms.
It is a modular codec. The camera connects externally — EagleEye E70 for large rooms, E360 for 360-degree coverage in non-traditional spaces. Microphone arrays position where the room requires, not where a video bar can reach. Up to four TC10 controllers pair simultaneously — one at each end of a long table, one on the side credenza, one mounted outside the door as the Teams Panel. Microsoft Teams Rooms native on VideoOS 5.0. Support through 2032. The divisible training room runs two simultaneous calls from a single G7500 codec — half the hardware, one Poly Lens management entry, one maintenance responsibility.
Poly Studio G62
The G62 is for the organisation that knows what they need today and knows things will change. It operates as a fully capable Teams Rooms system out of the box. But when the medium conference room gets extended, when the organisation adds a partition, when a second display goes on the wall — the G62 handles each change through hardware addition rather than hardware replacement. The codec stays. The peripherals expand around it.
The financial argument is clean: capital expenditure follows the actual need. You don't spend on the room as you want it in five years. You spend on the room as it is today, and add as it grows. VideoOS 5.0 on Android 13, Teams Rooms certified, Poly Lens managed, support through 2032.
The TC10 Does More Than Most People Know
Most people think of the TC10 as the screen you tap to join a call. It is also the scheduling panel on the outside of the door. It is the room booking display visible from 10 metres. It is the DirectorAI configuration tool. And in a boardroom, there can be four of them on a single system. Here is what the TC10 actually does.
The Teams Rooms Controller
Paired to the room system, the TC10 is the room's Teams interface. It shows the day's Outlook calendar — every meeting that has this room booked appears on screen before anyone walks in. One tap joins the meeting. No dialling. No PIN. No "are you the host?" moment.
- Today's calendar from Exchange/Outlook — visible on screen before the meeting
- One-touch join — tap the meeting, call starts. No manual dialling
- Camera control — adjust framing, set DirectorAI Perimeter boundary zones
- Content sharing — initiate from the controller, no laptop needed
- Volume and mic control during calls
- Motion sensor — wakes screen when someone enters, sleeps when room empties
- LED status bars — show call status at a glance without reading the screen
- Up to 4 TC10 controllers per system on G7500 — one at each end of a long table
The Room Scheduling Panel
Mounted outside the room door in standalone Microsoft Teams Panel mode, the TC10 becomes a room availability display. No second device required. The same TC10 hardware. A different software mode. The entire floor knows which rooms are free without walking to check.
- Room availability display — current meeting, next meeting, full day shown on screen
- LED status bars — green when free, red when occupied. Visible from 10 metres
- Book a room directly on the panel if it's free — no app, no phone needed
- Exchange calendar sync — live, accurate, updates the moment a booking changes
- Ad-hoc meeting start — tap to reserve the room right now for an impromptu session
- Room name and current meeting host displayed — no confusion about who is inside
DirectorAI Perimeter — Set Once, Stays Forever
From the TC10 Admin Settings, an administrator draws boundary zones in a live view of the room. The camera's AI framing only activates inside those boundaries — anyone outside, in a corridor, at an adjacent desk, or near the room entrance stays invisible to remote participants. The live preview on the TC10 screen shows exactly which people are included and excluded as you draw the boundary. Set it once. It persists across reboots. AED pricing for TC10: AED 3,000 – 5,000. → WhatsApp for TC10 pricing
What Else Your Meeting Room Might Need
The system gets you started. The accessories complete the room. These are the four most common additions to HP Poly Teams Rooms deployments in Dubai — each one solving a specific problem that the core system alone cannot address.
EagleEye E70 Smart Camera
When the room is too large for a video bar's built-in camera to frame everyone properly, the E70 is the answer. A dual-lens 4K smart camera that connects to the G7500 or G62 codec externally. The wide-angle lens covers the full room. DirectorAI uses the E70's dual lenses to track the active speaker and switch framing automatically — the same intelligence as the X72's dual-camera system, available as an external accessory for modular deployments.
For boardrooms where the table is longer than the X52's 6-metre mic range, or where the display is positioned far from the camera — the E70 is specified. For training centres where 30 people need to be seen properly. For executive suites where the production quality of the video matters to the people in the room.
Expansion Microphone Arrays
The Poly Studio X52's built-in microphones have a 6-metre pickup range. The standard Dubai 10-person conference room fits inside that range. The boardroom that seats 20 around a 12-metre table does not. The person at the far end drops out of the conversation — remote participants hear them poorly, they repeat themselves, they stop contributing. That is the specific problem expansion microphones solve.
Expansion mic arrays extend microphone coverage to match the table length. They connect to the X52 or G-series codec directly. The signal processing combines with the built-in microphone array for uniform pickup across the full table. The person at the far end is heard as clearly as the person at the front. It changes the dynamic of long-table meetings permanently.
Poly Sync 40 / 60 Speakerphone
Not every room needs a full Teams Rooms system. The break-out space where three people occasionally join a Zoom call. The phone room. The informal huddle area with a screen but no dedicated system. For these spaces, the Poly Sync 40 or Sync 60 provides professional audio without the infrastructure of a room system. USB and Bluetooth — connects to any laptop, any platform, any meeting.
The Sync 60 adds USB camera passthrough — it can act as the room's audio hub while a separate camera provides video. For flexible spaces in a Dubai office that need audio quality without a full installation, the Sync is the right specification. AED 950 for the Sync 40. AED 1,800 for the Sync 60.
Wall Mounts, Credenza Mounts & Cabling
The system ships with the hardware it needs to function. What it doesn't ship with is the mounting hardware specific to your room's wall type, ceiling height, display position, and cable management requirements. In Dubai's premium office fit-outs — plasterboard walls, concealed cable runs, specific VESA bracket requirements for expensive display units — the mounting specification matters.
We assess mounting requirements during the site survey and specify the correct brackets, cable lengths, and management solutions before hardware arrives on site. The TC10 wall mount bracket for outside-door installation. VESA-compatible mounts for the X-series video bars behind the display. Cable management for the PoE run from the network point to the system. Everything confirmed before day one.

The CFO Asked How Long Until We Do This Again
Every time someone approves an AV budget in Dubai, the same question comes up somewhere in the meeting: "When is the next time we're having this conversation?" The answer used to be vague. With VideoOS 5.0, it has a specific date attached to it.
Not Just an Android Update
HP describes VideoOS 5.0 as "a comprehensive architectural overhaul" — not a version bump. The underlying platform that Teams and Zoom run on was rebuilt from the ground up. This architecture is what enables the 2032 support commitment. A system running VideoOS 4.x cannot receive 5.0 through an update. The X30 and X50 are permanently excluded. They run Android 10 on an architecture that cannot make the jump.
What Improves From Day One
Smarter DirectorAI camera framing. Enhanced AI noise blocking that runs on the device itself — no cloud dependency, no latency. Multi-microphone audio mixing that combines inputs intelligently rather than defaulting to the loudest signal. Faster TC10 touch controller response. These improvements are available from the first meeting after the VideoOS 5.0 update, not in a future release.
The 2032 Answer — In Writing
HP published the VideoOS 5.0 lifecycle roadmap at ISE 2026: Android 17 delivery on X32, X52, X72, and G62 in 2028. Full device support through 2032. This is a publicly available, documented product commitment — not a verbal assurance from a sales call. A 2026 purchase of any VideoOS 5.0 system gives a minimum six-year lifecycle. The next budget conversation is 2032.
VideoOS 5.1 — Expected Q3 2026: The next update adds DirectorAI multi-camera automatic switching for the X72 — the system will switch between wide-angle and telephoto based on predictive AI tracking, not just reactive speaker detection. For large rooms where the camera currently follows a beat behind the speaker, this update closes the gap. All VideoOS 5.0 systems receive 5.1 automatically through Poly Lens. No manual update required.
The Microsoft Teams recertification point — specifically for Dubai IT managers:
Microsoft Teams Rooms certification is not permanent. It requires recertification as Teams and Android versions update. The X30 and X50 lost their certification roadmap because Android 10 cannot support the Teams Rooms requirements of the current platform. VideoOS 5.0 systems on Android 13 carry Microsoft's recertification through the documented lifecycle — every Teams Rooms feature Microsoft releases between now and 2032 arrives on the device automatically. The room you buy in 2026 joins Teams in 2032 exactly as it joined Teams on day one. One touch. Every time.
What IT Gets — Before and After the Meeting
The meeting itself is visible to everyone. What happens before and after — room health, device status, call quality degradation, firmware drift — is invisible unless you have the tools to see it. HP Poly gives IT two layers of visibility without adding a management platform to the budget.
Poly Lens — What's Happening Inside the Hardware
Poly Lens is HP Poly's cloud device management platform. It is included at no cost with every HP Poly video conferencing system. No subscription. No add-on licence. The hardware and the management platform ship together.
From the Poly Lens dashboard: firmware version per device, camera health status, audio quality scores per session, microphone performance, network connectivity status, and call duration analytics across every room in the fleet. For a Dubai company with rooms in Business Bay, Abu Dhabi ADGM, and a site in Riyadh — every device is visible in one browser tab. Firmware updates push simultaneously to all locations. A configuration change deploys to 20 rooms in the time it would take to visit one.
Teams Admin Center — What Microsoft Sees From Their Side
The Teams Admin Center is Microsoft's management portal for Microsoft 365 and Teams Rooms. It shows call quality from the network and platform perspective — packet loss, jitter, audio quality scores from the Teams infrastructure side. Certified HP Poly systems appear in the Teams Admin Center as managed room endpoints. IT can see every room's status from the Microsoft portal alongside the rest of the Microsoft 365 estate.
The two layers together cover everything. Poly Lens shows what is happening inside the hardware. Teams Admin Center shows what is happening on the Microsoft network and platform. A call quality problem surfaces in one or both dashboards before the first user complaint arrives. IT resolves it before the next meeting.
Configure device profiles in Poly Lens before hardware ships. Systems apply settings automatically on first network connection. IT never visits the desk.
Call frequency per room. Average duration. Peak usage times. The data to show which rooms justify their investment — and which need to be reconsidered.
Automatic certificate enrollment and renewal for all devices. 3072-bit support. For regulated environments in DIFC, ADGM, and UAE government entities.
Your Polycom Is Connected to Teams. That Is Not a Teams Rooms System.
The Polycom Group Series, HDX, and RealPresence systems that Dubai offices deployed through the 2010s were never issued Microsoft Teams Rooms certification. They connect via SIP. Calls go through. And every Teams Rooms feature — one-touch join, calendar display, live captions, recording, intelligent recap, Teams Admin Center visibility — is absent. If your organisation has standardised on Teams, the Polycom hardware is the limitation. Here is the direct replacement for every legacy model.
| Your Current System | Teams Status | HP Poly Replacement | What the Migration Looks Like |
|---|---|---|---|
| Polycom Group 300 / 310 | SIP only — no cert | Poly Studio X32 | Same small room position. Same display. PoE cable replaces codec wiring. Teams native from day one — one-touch join on TC10. |
| Polycom Group 500 | SIP only — no cert | Poly Studio X52 + TC10 | Most common migration in Dubai. Same room, same display, same cable position. DirectorAI replaces EagleEye Director. 3–4 hours total. Teams native from handover. |
| Polycom Group 700 | SIP only — no cert | Poly Studio G7500 | Modular architecture preserved. E70 replaces EagleEye IV-12x. Same boardroom philosophy — separate camera, mics, codec. Teams native from day one. |
| Polycom HDX 7000 / 8000 | EOL 2021 — no Teams | Poly Studio X52 | Comparable room size. 4K replaces HD. Android 13 replaces proprietary firmware. Teams Rooms certified from day one — the HDX had neither Teams nor certification. |
| Polycom HDX 9000 | EOL 2021 — no Teams | Poly Studio G7500 | Premium large-room equivalent. Modular, multi-camera, boardroom class. The executive room gets the system it deserved in 2010. |
| Poly Studio X30 / X50 | Cert expires Sept 2026 | Poly Studio X32 / X52 | Same mounting bracket. Same PoE connection. Drop-in replacement. Android 13 and 2032 support vs Android 10 and an expiry date. Do this before September. |
What the Group 500 → X52 migration actually looks like in a Dubai office: The existing Group 500 codec and EagleEye camera come down. The X52 mounts to the same display via VESA bracket or sits on the credenza. The same network point powers it via PoE+. The TC10 mounts on the conference table. Configuration takes approximately one hour — Teams resource account linked, calendar synced, DirectorAI configured. Live call test before handover. The room joins Teams with one tap from the TC10 calendar view. Total time from arrival to handover: 3–4 hours. → WhatsApp us your current model
Basic vs Pro — Which Licence Does Your Room Need
The hardware and the licence are two separate things. HP Poly supplies and installs the hardware. The Microsoft licence is between you and Microsoft, billed by Microsoft directly. Here is what the difference between Basic and Pro means practically for your rooms.
Included with Microsoft 365 — up to 25 rooms
The Basic licence covers core Teams Rooms functionality — one-touch join, calendar display on the TC10, screen sharing, and standard meeting features. For most Dubai SMEs and small-to-medium corporate offices with fewer than 25 meeting rooms, the Basic licence delivers a fully functional Teams Rooms experience at no additional cost beyond the Microsoft 365 subscription you already pay.
Right for: offices with up to 25 meeting rooms, standard meeting use, no specialised compliance requirements.
Additional Microsoft licence — enhanced management + AI features
The Pro licence adds AI meeting intelligence (intelligent recap, automatic action items), enhanced Microsoft Intune device management, Teams Rooms Managed Services for proactive Microsoft support, advanced analytics in Teams Admin Center, and advanced security features. For regulated organisations, multi-site enterprises, or any company where Microsoft's managed support for the room estate is a requirement — Pro is the correct specification.
Right for: regulated environments, enterprises with 25+ rooms, organisations using Teams Rooms Managed Services, AI meeting features required.
HP Poly hardware works with both licence tiers. We help you understand which tier your rooms need based on your use case and organisation size — before you commit to either. → WhatsApp to discuss
On Teams Today. Uncertain About Tomorrow. The Hardware Protects You Either Way.
The Dubai multinational subsidiary whose parent company in London is standardising on a different platform. The company mid-acquisition watching two Microsoft 365 tenants being consolidated. The IT manager who was told "decide on a platform" and knows the answer might change in 12 months.
Every HP Poly X-series and G-series system running VideoOS 5.0 is certified for both Microsoft Teams Rooms and Zoom Rooms natively. Switching platforms is a 30-minute software reconfiguration and a licence change. No hardware replacement. No new installation. No fresh capital request. The room hardware stays in place. The platform changes around it. Buying an HP Poly Teams Rooms system in 2026 is not a commitment to Teams forever — it is a commitment to a hardware platform that accommodates whichever direction your organisation takes.
The practical implication for a Dubai IT manager:
If your organisation is on Teams today but a parent company acquisition changes the platform decision — your HP Poly systems switch in 30 minutes. If you standardise on Zoom tomorrow and come back to Teams in three years — the hardware accommodates both decisions. The systems you buy today work for both platforms. The capital expenditure is protected regardless of the platform outcome.
