Product Overview

AI-generated summary

At ~£2k ex-VAT, the ThinkSmart Hub isn’t a “nice to have” video accessory — it’s a credible all-in-one for teams that actually run meetings every day and want something tidy, reliable, and centrally managed. The main reason to buy is simplicity: this is built to sit in a room and just work with conferencing workflows, rather than cobbling together a thin client, camera, speakers, and a separate controller. If you’re equipping meeting spaces where IT can’t be hands-on for every little issue, the managed-friendly Windows 10 IoT angle can be a real time-saver.

That said, I wouldn’t buy it if you’re trying to solve a one-off problem or you mainly need “basic video” at the lowest cost. At this price, you’re paying for the hub approach, not just hardware — and if your room setup already has strong conferencing hardware, this can feel like overlap. Also, depending on your existing ecosystem and room standards, you may need to confirm compatibility and supported conferencing software before committing. Net: best for UK business meeting rooms that need a dependable, integrated endpoint and where “set it up once, manage it centrally” is worth the money.
