Neat has entered a new partnership with Zoho to bring Zoho Cliq to Neat Open, making Neat the first hardware vendor to support the unified communications platform on purpose-built video meeting systems. The integration will give businesses a dedicated meeting room experience across Neat’s Generation 2 device portfolio.
Zoho Cliq Joins the Neat Open Ecosystem
Neat Open lets organizations run a range of collaboration tools and applications on Neat hardware. The platform already supports bring-your-own-device workflows, business apps, AI Notes, wireless content sharing, and other meeting functions. With the new integration, Zoho Cliq joins that ecosystem and becomes available on Neat’s current Generation 2 devices.
Organizations that already use Zoho products will be able to launch meetings directly from room devices. The companies said the partnership will focus on businesses in India as well as customers in more than 150 markets where Zoho operates. IT teams will be able to deploy, monitor, and manage Zoho Cliq rooms through Neat Pulse alongside other Neat devices.
Meeting, Scheduling, and Room Control Features
Zoho Cliq on Neat devices adds features designed for office meeting rooms. Users can start a meeting with one tap from the room device, schedule a meeting, and reserve the physical conference room at the same time. The integration also includes in-room reactions, gestures, participant spotlighting, and waiting room controls for meeting hosts.
Zoho Cliq is part of Zoho’s portfolio of more than 60 business products. The platform combines workplace messaging, channels, audio and video meetings, task tools, chatbots, and integrations with Zoho and third-party applications.
Industry Voices on the Partnership
Sandeep Mehra, Senior Vice President and General Manager of International at Neat, said the move gives customers more control over the tools they use in conference rooms. “Conference rooms should suit the way our customers work,” Mehra said. Adding Zoho Cliq to Neat Open gives organizations another option for managing meetings across workplace spaces.
Jeri John, Program Director for Unified Communications at Zoho, said the partnership extends Zoho Cliq’s meeting experience to dedicated video devices. “Our partnership with Neat takes our Android TV experience further, bringing Zoho Cliq to purpose-built video devices,” John said. He added that Zoho customers will continue to have a choice of hardware while meetings and workplace messages remain covered by Zoho’s privacy and data management standards.
First Look at InfoComm India 2026
Neat plans to demonstrate the Zoho Cliq integration at InfoComm India 2026, scheduled for September 16–18 at the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai. Visitors can see the integration at booth E10, where Neat will show how Zoho Cliq operates on Neat hardware in a dedicated conference room setup, including meeting launch, scheduling, participant controls, and room management.
Neat builds video meeting devices for workplace collaboration and supports platforms including Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom. The company also offers flexible BYOD options for organizations using different communication systems. The Zoho Cliq partnership adds another platform to Neat Open as both companies continue to expand their workplace collaboration products.
