X2O Media, a Barco company, will highlight new applications built to support today's highly mobile and technologically savvy workforce at this year's Enterprise Connect conference and expo on enterprise communications and collaboration, according to a company announcement.

This includes demonstrating the capabilities and versatility of the company's X2O platform designed to deliver real-time visual communications to the right audience, at the right time, on the right device. The platform aims to transform enterprises into digital workplaces by providing employees with tools to create dynamic visual channels. Similar to miniature TV networks, channel-based communications allow organizations to turn data linked to internal and external sources such as SharePoint, SAP and social media into content-led messaging that is interactive, targeted and highly engaging. To simplify this process, the X2O platform provides templates, drag-and-drop tools and scheduling options to streamline the creation and management of data-driven, media-rich channels that drive digital engagement and compelling information across the workplace. Enhancing teamwork, visual channels solutions also improve how employees share and collaborate on tasks by leveraging a shared virtual workspace on interactive touchscreens, tablets, smartphones and desktops, the company said.

X2O Enterprise Visual Communications include the following solutions:

• Connected Workplace: Users communicate in real time via X2O channels displayed throughout the enterprise on digital signage, video walls, mobile devices and more.
• Connected Workspace: Designed for multiple users, teams collaborate in a shared virtual workspace either online or in huddle spaces — enabling document and desktop sharing, video conversations, polling participation and more. Powered by the X2O platform, the solution is designed to strengthen teamwork by letting users engage within a common environment.
• Connected Desktop: Users view and interact with X2O channels directly from their desktop — improving visual communication within today's digital enterprise. Specific use cases include company news channels, integrating business information dashboards into workflows, and receiving live alerts at workstations. Connected Desktop also allows employees to collaborate with other team members.
• Connected Workforce: Organizations can use the X2O platform to share real-time content with remote workers across campuses and around the globe. This means companies can maintain up-to-date communication across entire workforces, regardless of location.
