Have an ad-hoc meeting
If there are no scheduled meetings listed on the welcome screen, the Surface Hub is free to use—just sign in and start working.
How you meet is up to you—you can dive right into Microsoft Whiteboard and start drawing out your ideas, open up your recent files to see them on the big screen and get real-time feedback from your team, and start a call with Teams or Skype. Get creative and work however works best for that moment—it’s up to you.
Schedule a meeting
