PerfectView FAQs


Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Why should I buy PerfectView? I can just use a projector or a large screen, wall mounted monitor...

A. Meeting rooms outfitted with Audio/Video equipment can cost tens of thousands of dollars and restrict you to scheduling meetings in that room. PerfectView instantly turns any office or space into a highly interactive environment. And because you can pull PerfectView right up to audience, you have a better viewing experience.

With PerfectView you can say goodbye to all the time wasted looking for, positioning, connecting to and adjusting AV equipment every time there’s a meeting. Not to mention all the time spent waiting for a room in the first place. Just roll in PerfectView and switch on its PC and Monitor. Our LCD Monitors are sharp and clear, even in bright light. So you get instant access to all electronic files and the internet. Without fumbling around in the dark

Wall mounted Monitors and Screens force everyone to face the wall and look up. Hardly conducive for interactive discussion. With PerfectView, everyone is sitting comfortably making eye contact with each other and referring to the screen as a normal part of the conversation. This allows for normal body language interpretation and heightens participation.

PerfectView allows you not only to resource share using the System, but also use any office or room. No more time wasted scheduling meeting rooms and reserving AV equipment. PerfectView is designed for years of use. We fabricate to exacting standards using welded steel and aluminum components, then finished with auto industry grade powder coat. Our designs are forward thinking. PerfectView will easily adapt to future technologies. You will be able to change the computer hardware without worrying about PerfectView components. We’ve done all the grunt work for you. PerfectView systems come ready to work; we ship them pre-assembled, pre-cable managed, configured and tested. All you do is attach the monitor to the post, make connections to the supplied monitor and PC, and push on the power buttons. No need to call in expensive contractors or involve your over-burdened IT Staff. This is one very user-friendly solution.

PerfectView is intended for wireless network environments. Although there are still huge advantages in non-wireless applications, PerfectView System allows you to easliy move down the hall, up the elevator or simply reposition within the same room as needs dictate.
