Creativity 365 vs. Intel Unite

The fact we can add in a lot of different apps to use for editing, sharing or comparing it works well, I wish a lot of the apps we need to use to create content was already added to the app, but everything it offers encompasses exactly what we need to be efficient though, you just have to download each app

It's a fantastic tool [Intel Unite] in meeting rooms where staff frequently change and/or bring their own devices to connect. No more wires or dongles, just a wifi connection needed and that's it to stream to the screen. It'll even display on the screen exactly what end-users need to do to connect, which makes getting connected for less tech-savvy users very easy. If you have an IT or AV department that isn't great, this probably isn't a great option to roll-your-own, but they do sell dedicated Intel Unite PCs with everything pre-done on them.

• The apps are super easy to use.
• Creativity 365 software pack encompasses a wide range of functionalities, overlapping between each other to offer a complete toolset.
• It is great for capturing and highlighting important website contents with PDF Markup.
• Write-On Video is very helpful to spice up my videos and mash photos and videos together to create new content.

• No dongles needed any longer for connections, it's all through a local wifi (or the corporate one depending on how you set it up). You can stream from mobile devices too.
• Simple set-up - laptops connect very easily, mobiles connect quickly with an app.

• occasionally crashes, but not unlike other software I have dealt with
• Having to install all apps separately
• Slow loading time

• The initial setup was a bit of a pain - when we started they required specific hardware to make it work (Intel vPro), which wasn't on the PC used for presentations at the time and we had to change hardware out.
• Software versions are difficult to find on the Intel website - it's a bit of a jumble and not clear as to what needs to be installed and where.

I contacted customer service once and got my problem solved very quickly.

I think Creativity 365 holds its own in this space. I think where we are at with all this new software is a very high baseline of expectation as it pertains to how successful these software applications can be. Heck, a cell phone can give you as much power as you need at times to master these things for your business, but Creativity 365 stands apart in how it executes what it intends to do, and for that, my team and I give it a full recommendation!

GoToMeeting and Webex both require either a connection to the display screen or a PC mounted to the display to connect through. [Intel] Unite handles both of those areas, though it doesn't function as a remote meeting platform to bring people together from different locations. It's just for local display.

• The toolset has helped me to increase productivity. I have become more organized with my work due to everyday note-taking, and more efficient with my web-related tasks.

• For us, this has been a creature comfort primarily as it has allowed us to simplify connections in meeting rooms for infrequent staff.
• We had a lot of theft of dongles from meeting rooms due to presenters snatching them when they packed up for the day. [Intel] Unite let us allow presenters to connect wirelessly to the display screens, and no more dongles to hand out in the first place!
