A commercial AV integrator plans, designs, installs, and configures audiovisual systems — displays, audio, cameras, control systems, and video conferencing technology — into a cohesive, easy-to-use solution for your space. Rather than piecing together off-the-shelf products that may not work together, an integrator like Creation Networks engineers a custom system matched to your room size, usage, acoustics, and budget. If your organization relies on meetings, presentations, training, or collaboration, a professional AV integrator ensures your technology investment delivers results from day one.

Costs vary based on room size, complexity, and technology selected. A small huddle room or video conferencing room typically starts around $3,000–$8,000, a standard conference room runs $8,000–$25,000, and a boardroom, auditorium, or command center can range from $25,000 to well over $100,000. Industry data shows equipment accounts for roughly 60–65% of the total project cost, with installation and labor at 25–30%, and training/commissioning making up the remainder. Creation Networks provides transparent, itemized quotes — contact us for a free consultation and estimate tailored to your specific space and goals.

A Microsoft Teams Room (MTR) is a purpose-built, hardware-certified meeting room system that runs Microsoft Teams natively on dedicated compute hardware — not just your laptop. MTR systems include a touch-panel controller, certified camera, microphones, and speakers engineered for the room's specific acoustics and sightlines. Unlike a standard laptop-based call, an MTR solution delivers one-touch join, automatic camera framing, intelligent audio, and a consistent, reliable experience for both in-room and remote participants. Creation Networks is a certified Microsoft Teams Rooms partner and designs, installs, and supports MTR deployments of all sizes.

Yes — and it's one of the most common challenges we solve for multi-tenant buildings, corporate campuses, and hybrid organizations. Zoom Rooms, Microsoft Teams Rooms, and Google Meet hardware can coexist in the same facility using platform-agnostic AV infrastructure, flexible BYOM (Bring Your Own Meeting) solutions, and interoperability platforms. Creation Networks designs multi-platform environments that let different teams work within their preferred collaboration tools while maintaining a consistent, professional in-room experience throughout your facility.

Crestron is an industry-leading AV control system platform that allows all your room technology — displays, projectors, audio, cameras, shades, lighting, and HVAC — to be operated from a single touchpanel or app. For simple rooms, a control system may not be necessary. But for boardrooms, multi-use spaces, auditoriums, or facilities with multiple rooms, a Crestron control system dramatically simplifies operations, reduces user error, and enables remote monitoring and management. Creation Networks holds Crestron programming and installation certifications, ensuring your system is designed and configured correctly from the ground up.

Q-SYS is a software-defined audio, video, and control platform developed by QSC — one of the most trusted names in professional audio. Unlike traditional hardware-based DSPs (Digital Signal Processors), Q-SYS runs on a networked ecosystem that combines audio processing, video routing, AV control, and system monitoring in a single, scalable platform. It's widely used in conference rooms, auditoriums, houses of worship, corporate campuses, and command centers where reliable, high-quality audio and flexible system control are critical. Q-SYS integrates natively with Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Cisco Webex, Crestron, and Dante audio networks, making it an ideal backbone for modern AV infrastructure. Creation Networks is a Q-SYS certified design and installation partner — our team programs and commissions Q-SYS systems to deliver crystal-clear audio and rock-solid reliability in any environment.

Timelines vary by project scope. A single conference room installation typically takes 1–3 weeks from signed contract to completion (including design, equipment procurement, and installation). A multi-room deployment or full building integration generally runs 6–16 weeks depending on equipment lead times, construction coordination, and programming complexity. Creation Networks provides a detailed project schedule at the outset so you always know what to expect, and we coordinate closely with your facilities team to minimize disruption to your operations.

Absolutely. Creation Networks offers two purpose-built post-installation programs designed to keep your AV systems running at peak performance long after go-live:

Creation Care is our comprehensive AV managed services and maintenance program — covering preventative maintenance visits, remote system monitoring, firmware updates, priority on-site response, and dedicated account support. Creation Care is ideal for organizations that want proactive, white-glove care for their AV investment without the overhead of in-house AV management.

AVAILS is our on-demand AV support and service portal — giving your team direct access to Creation Networks technicians for troubleshooting, remote diagnostics, user training, and as-needed on-site dispatch. AVAILS is perfect for organizations that want flexible, pay-as-you-go support without a long-term contract commitment.

Both programs include access to our certified technical team and can be customized to your environment. A well-maintained AV system dramatically extends its operational lifespan and protects your technology investment.

Creation Networks serves a broad range of industries including corporate offices, K-12 schools and higher education, government and military facilities, houses of worship, healthcare, hospitality, and event venues. We have experience with cooperative purchasing programs, prevailing wage projects, and the specific compliance requirements of government and public sector AV procurement.
