MAXHUB vs Hikvision Interactive Flat Panel: Which One Fits Your Room?

Choose MAXHUB for boardrooms and hybrid meeting rooms where video calls, a longer warranty and a Windows option matter. Choose Hikvision when the room is a classroom or training room and the budget is tight. Both come in 65, 75, 86 and 98 inches, both have a built-in camera and microphones, and both join Zoom and Microsoft Teams calls.

Questions to ask before you choose

1. Who uses the room most: trainers and teachers, or managers on video calls?
2. How far is the furthest seat from the screen? That decides the size.
3. Does the room join Microsoft Teams or Zoom calls most days?
4. How long do you plan to keep the panel? A longer warranty matters more over 5 years.
5. Is the room a training room? Interactive flat panels for training rooms are HRDC claimable through HRD Corp's training equipment grant (ALAT), subject to HRD Corp approval before purchase.
