Is your outdated office technology slowing down job processes and causing your staff undue strife in completing their daily job functions? You need office technology solutions that can streamline and smooth your workflows for optimal performance. From creation to finish, products and services offered by RITE Technology will allow you to transform your workplace into a “modern office” where you can easily and efficiently create, scan, annotate, print, copy, email, and web conference to share information quickly across various channels. Here at RITE Technology, we’ve done this for multiple businesses and organizations in Southwest Florida over the past 33 years. Here are a few ways our solutions can benefit you:

  1. Advanced Scanning Technology.
    Why waste time scanning documents one side at a time? With our innovative Sharp Advanced Series multifunction color printers, you can scan both sides of a document at the same time, improving efficiency and allowing you to spend your time on other more vital job responsibilities. Equipped with a 300-sheet duplexing single pass feeder (DSPF) capable of scan speeds up to 280 images per minute, you will heighten your productivity by claiming back valuable hours in your workday.
  2. Interactive Annotation.
    Enjoy the flexibility to collaborate in today’s BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) environment with Sharp’s award-winning AQUOS BOARD Interactive Whiteboards. With it’s seamless integration and ease of connectivity with other technologies, quickly connect your laptop, tablet, or other device to simultaneously share content with in-person and online participants. Enjoy a pen-on-paper experience as you quickly add notations on the fly to increase meeting productivity. Then, use the intuitive user interface to save those annotations and share them out to your team during the meeting or at a later time.
  3. Web Conferencing Solutions.
    Do you struggle with unreliable meeting equipment that is often difficult or impossible for your team to use without technical support from the IT department? Our team can evaluate your needs and guide you through the process of selecting the best web conferencing options to meet your goals. Whether through interactive whiteboards or other commercial-grade professional displays paired with the latest audio-visual products, our solutions will allow you to quickly and easily hold remote meetings that work smoother than you might have ever thought within your reach. Our technology makes every meeting feel as close to face-to-face as possible.
  4. Print Cloud Connectivity and Security.
    The new series of Advanced and Essentials Sharp multifunction printers support enhanced connectivity with popular cloud services, such as Microsoft Teams, Dropbox, and SharePoint Online, allowing you to print and share documents easily and securely in the cloud to seamlessly collaborate with colleagues even when they are working remotely. Additionally, when it comes to print security, leading security technology including BIOS Integrity Check, Application Whitelisting, TLS 1.3 Encryption, and optional Bitdefender Antivirus features available on the Advanced Series MFPs will help your organization protect your data and meet regulatory requirements in your work environment.
  5. Smarter Design.
    Updated for a modern aesthetic, the new Advanced and Essentials series MFPs blend well in all office environments, featuring soft-close drawers for less noise and solid state drives to process your jobs faster than ever before all while running silent.

What is AV and how can it help my business?

What is AV and how can it help my business?

At RITE Technology we are embracing digital transformation by offering a wide range of Professional A/V (Audio Visual) solutions so that we can best serve the evolving needs of our clients.

Although we have many years of experience selling interactive displays, like many other Sharp dealers, AQUOS BOARD® display systems are only a small component in an effective A/V strategy.  Remote meetings have become widely accepted as a method of communication across most industries. As such, the needs of many customers have grown far beyond simple displays or interactive whiteboards. Here at RITE Technology, we have chosen to invest into this area of digital technology by constructing a client experience center as well as sourcing the technical expertise to drive the success of this division. We have discovered ways to help our customers use A/V technology to not only increase productivity in their workplace, but also to enhance their company culture.  A display that has a primary purpose of hosting virtual meetings can serve a multitude of additional functions. For example, the use of digital signage solutions will allow our clients to announce birthdays, work anniversaries, or even play new employee welcome videos.

In the video you will see that we have a variety of types and sizes of displays in our Client Experience Center. We have a large format DVLED that we can drive content to from multiple platforms or sources. This capability includes screen-sharing hardware, cameras, digital signage, as well as content from a PC. We have two AQUOS BOARD® interactive displays setup so that they can be used either as (1) one contiguous screen using a SHUTTLE PC or they can be used as (2) two separate displays showing individual content being sent either through our control system in-house. We also have a HUDDLE station that is setup with both screen-casting gear as well as an all-in-one camera/mic/speaker bar for doing quick and easy remote meetings. You’ll also notice in the video that we have a PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) camera on our wall that can be used for virtual meetings on any of the displays. Speaking of company culture, our Client Experience Center includes the RITE Technology golf simulator. Believe me when I say it is one of the highlights of the room for all of us duffers around here.

Our experience center has paved the way for us to earn several opportunities from both current our customers and prospects. One of the opportunities is an A/V solution that we created for a large athletic facility that will include multiple displays and a sound system, all of which will be supported by a control system that will provide the customer the ability to send any video source in their system to any display throughout the facility.  This opportunity for the first location has now expanded to include 15 additional locations all around the state of Florida. 

An additional aspect of our own RITE Technology facility design was to include two separate conference areas that each incorporate different A/V solutions. These configurations allow us to host virtual meetings between these areas so that when our clients visit us in-house, they can compare the various levels of product experience between the two rooms. By allowing our clients to experience the various levels of hardware and software before they make a buying decision, we can have more intelligent and fact-based dialogue on which of our solutions will be the best for each customer’s individual needs. These customer experiences also enable us to overcome some of the pricing objections that would otherwise have been subjective.  Lastly, the experience center aids us in setting clear expectations for the video and sound quality that the customer will experience post-install.

One aspect of our business that A/V has changed is the presence of “emotion” for the buyer. We often engage the client in conversation that causes them to view their business differently.  Our goal is to expand the customer’s point of view about what can be done digitally to enhance their businesses.  From this initial strategy meeting in our experience center, we then design and engineer a solution that accommodates the customer’s current and future plans as businesses continue to evolve in this post-pandemic era.

Bottom line for RITE is that this endeavor has opened a multitude of opportunities to earn new business in AV and our other core business offerings!
