It is best suited for video\audio calls and meeting use. you can easily connect to the meeting with an ID or your laptop and also share content easily in a couple of ways. It's less useful for large-scale meetings as attendees seem to get lost as their video can get shrunk or hidden offscreen.

Cisco Webex Share is more preferred to use in a meeting with more than 15 people where there are many presentations or content to be shared with others. Once connected with the main screen it becomes easy to share with others. There are scenarios like classroom teaching where Cisco Webex Share will be time-consuming to set up and hence normal HDMI setup will work.

Usability
Cisco Webex Board Series has great UI. It's very compelling to use. Touch controls are great and have never had any trouble navigating. However, screen mirroring can be laggy sometimes and frame drops are seen quite often while mirroring. Overall it's a great device to use with many useful features and optimized UI.

It's honestly hard to tell since we haven't had many hiccups, if any at all! We have used Webex support for other situations and it was great, but for the board itself, we only had one issue, when we received it, a pixel was broken and Webex replaced it. Fair to say they lived up to our expectations.

Alternatives Considered
Comparing the interactive displays from Avacor, GoTo Meeting, and Zoom Workplace, it is possible to note that Cisco Board Series is equipped with AI and has the integration opportunities. Although many other displays provide touch capabilities similar to those of the Cisco Board Series Pro, this one has the NVIDIA AI chipset and the two camera setup for attendees. Other factors that informed the adoption of the product include this regarding the ability to link with other meeting solutions as well as the integrated sensors for environmental monitoring.
