Smart TeamWorks Cloud, Room account - 3 year subscription - TW-CR-3

Product Overview

SMART TeamWorks Cloud Room 3-Year Subscription (TW-CR-3) is a cloud-hosted collaboration software subscription for one SMART Board display, covering three years of service with software updates, cloud sync, and technical support included. It provides wireless screen sharing, digital whiteboarding, annotation, and video conferencing integration without requiring any on-premises server infrastructure. The 3-year term aligns well with standard AV refresh cycles and offers a lower annual commitment than the 5-year tier while still providing meaningful multi-year coverage. Organizations that prefer cloud-managed room software without a perpetual license will find this a practical mid-range option.

Product Description

SMART TeamWorks Cloud Room operates entirely on SMART’s cloud infrastructure, removing the need for IT teams to provision or maintain on-premises servers for room collaboration software. Software updates are delivered automatically by SMART Technologies throughout the subscription term, keeping each room current without requiring manual intervention from administrators.

Meeting participants connect wirelessly from Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and ChromeOS devices through a browser-based interface — no dedicated app installation is required for guests or BYOD users. The integrated whiteboard offers an unlimited canvas, and annotation tools work across any shared content including documents, slides, and live video feeds.

Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and Google Meet integrations are included, allowing the SMART Board to serve as the room’s meeting controller or work alongside a dedicated room system. The 3-year term suits organizations that operate on 3-year technology refresh cycles or that want to align TeamWorks Cloud Room renewals with SMART Board hardware warranty periods. At renewal, organizations can re-subscribe to TW-CR-3 or step up to TW-CR-5 for a longer commitment.
