nsquared rooms makes booking meeting spaces easy.



Did you know........ 
..........that nsquared rooms is great for finding available spaces for ad hoc meetings?

Being part of a large organisation can be a great thing. In a big company there is always plenty going on and lots of people with whom to collaborate and learn. It is often hard to find available meeting rooms at short notice. The room booking systems can be overly complicated and support personnel won't have time to make the booking for you that quickly. So you then end up in a noisy café, which is not a good scenario for a confidential chat. What if you could search for, and book a room, as soon as you knew you needed it?
With nsquared rooms you can do just that.


You can find out quickly what rooms are available within your timeframes. Better than that, you can book any of the available rooms all by yourself. It’s all connected to Microsoft Exchange so the information is updated immediately, which means interruption-free meetings.

We’ve seen it used in building foyers, at floor entrances by the elevators, and dotted around university campuses and business estates where they’re being used to great effect. Take a look here to find out more about nsquared rooms.

nsquared maps sends routes to your phone.



Did you know that you can email routes from nsquared map to any device that has email and web access?
nsquared maps is an off the shelf product that is designed to add value to a range of different environments as diverse as Real Estate, Food and Beverage outlets, shopping centres, emergency management centres and tourist information venues. One of the best ways to add value is to include a 'take-away', and having the ability to share map routing information is extremely valuable and useful.




Real Estate sales? Easily add each of your properties to the map with unique graphic identifiers so that your clients and prospects can see how easy it is to move between properties, inspections and amenities.
Emergency Management? quickly add assets and location on the map to ensure that your teams have the information they need so that you can send routing information to personnel on the ground.
Food and Beverage Franchise?  Let people know where you are and where else they can find you. Add the location details to the map and enable your customers to explore their options and record them.
Tourist Information Centres? Quickly add and update information on local attractions and amenities for visitors to your area. Routing information will be as up to date as possible.

In all of these scenarios, being able to create routes between points of interest and take away directions is an important and in some cases life saving benefit. We've cleverly enabled you to do just that as long as your personal device has email and web access. Find out more about nsquared maps here, or watch the video below.

Five reasons to customise your nsquared education apps.




Did you know that you can add curriculum relevant content to nsquared education apps? 

nsquared’s education admin portal enables you to easily change content in many of the education software applications. 
This means that you can either use the content packs that we create and upload for you, or you can create your own content. 


Libraries and Community centres are using this feature to promote current global and local events in an entertaining and educational way that’s fun for everyone. 
School teachers and school librarians are also using the web based content management tool to easily introduce content that’s relevant to units of learning. 

Some ideas for content you can create:
1. Create a jigsaw puzzle of a picture from your last school field trip.
2. Build a new pack for nsquared makewords to teach the students how to spell words related to your current class project.
3. Help students to recognize items from the latest history lessons by adding them to a game of nsquared snap.
4. Use nsquared missing card to help students solve maths problems.
5. Help the students to remember the artifacts they have been learning about by collecting them in nsquared herding.

“It has the benefit of engaging students who we’d normally see completely disconnected from their learning experiences”
Parramatta Marist College. 

If engaging your students and community members is high on your agenda, visit the nsquared admin portal to add new and exciting content to your software.

Make your sales pitches flexible and snappy with nsquared presenter.




Did you know........
That you can create and save multiple presentation timeline files in presenter? 
nsquared presenter is primarily designed to flip the focus of conversations by getting everyone in the room involved. It’s an exceptionally powerful sales tool, especially when you can create and save several presentations and have them ready to present straight from the table, as and when you need them. It’s a highly rapid and flexible solution.

Where we’ve seen it working exceptionally well is in the sales offices of property developers, where the sales agents have separate presentations available and ready for clients with different requirements.  Each of the presentations  includes a mix of fly through videos, location images, PDF content and floor plans, each of which can be viewed by several clients simultaneously.



Other locations getting benefit from having separate presentations available on the digital table include:

  • Car showrooms, with details about different models of car in each presentation
  • Media agencies; each presentation represents a set of projects for a category of client
  • Project meetings; every project has a timeline of content that is built on throughout the lifetime of the project
  • Financial services, different packages of options can be presented to clients depending on which presentation is loaded onto the touch screen table.


To find out how to get the most out of nsquared presenter give us a call or drop us an email at info@nsquaredsolutions.com, or leave a comment in the section below.

nsquared maps can read GeoRSS feeds





Did you know....... GeoRSS feeds can be displayed in nsquared maps.

GeoRSS feeds are a great way to include location information for web based data. Each location can have associated text and image data, so a GeoRSS feed can provide information on the map about each point.
The admin tool provided with nsquared maps allows you to add the data from any GeoRSS feed to the maps displayed on your digital tables.



Some examples of where we have seen this used are:

  • Real estate agents provide all the properties for sale in a GeoRSS feed that can then be plotted on the map.
  • Nation wide retailers provide a GeoRSS feed of all of their store locations to display on the map
  • Emergency services provide a GeoRSS feed of incidents as they happen, these incidents can be seen as they occur on the map
  • Photographers use GeoRSS to add location information to all of the images they store online. The images can then be displayed on the map.
  • A manufacturer's support team uses a GeoRSS feed to provide information on all of the support calls that require a site visit. The information about each call can be displayed on the map at the correct location.

With nsquared maps you can easily add the GeoRSS information to the map on your large interactive touch screen with no programming. Simply add the URL of the web feed to the admin tool and configure the way you'd like the data to be displayed.
