System overview

The Evoko room booking system consist of Evoko Liso devices that are installed outside the meeting rooms, and the Evoko Home application which connects to the booking system and is used to manage the Liso devices.

Evoko Home can be installed as a service in the company network, on-premises or in the cloud, which enables several features like user management, statistics and remote management of the Liso devices (Default mode).

For best performance we recommend that Evoko Home is installed on a physical or virtual server in your network or on a cloud based virtual server. This enables full functionality, including remote management, multi-site support, user management, monitoring and statistics. This is especially important for larger installations.

General installation process

• Make the necessary preparations in O365/Exchange or Google.
• Install Evoko Home on a Windows or Linux server
• Connect Evoko Home to O365./Exchange or Google
• Add Rooms to Locations in Evoko Home
• Connect Evoko Liso to Evoko Home server by the Evoko Home Server IP and assign it to a room.
