Our Specialties
Zoom & Microsoft Teams Room
Conference rooms and huddle spaces need video conferencing that works the same way every time someone walks in. Z Systems designs and installs certified Zoom Rooms and Microsoft Teams Rooms for businesses across Minnesota. We size the equipment to match the setup to the room. PTZ cameras, ceiling or wireless microphones, wireless presentation systems, and simple touch-panel controls for one-touch meeting start. Systems are built to be operated by whoever walks in first, then backed by ongoing service so the room stays reliable for years. Reach out today to see how you can run a meeting with a single USB-C Cable!
Multimedia Production Studios
Z Systems designs and builds multimedia production studios for organizations that need to record, switch, and stream content in-house instead of renting time or gear elsewhere. Systems are built around a professional video switcher, robotic cameras, dedicated recorders, and camera control hardware sized to the studio’s actual production schedule. Production equipment integration is part of the company’s original technical roots in video rental and edit suite design. Studios are planned so signal flow and cable pathways are worked out before install day, not patched together later.
Digital Signage
Digital signage covers more ground than a single screen in a lobby. Z Systems installs wayfinding displays, digital menu boards, and promotional signage for corporate offices, campuses, retail locations, and public buildings across Minnesota. Signage systems are built to be updated by whoever manages the content. Rotating a new promotion takes two clicks, not two weeks. Wayfinding is especially useful in larger or multi-tenant buildings where directories change often. We install systems that make sense for the space, whether that’s a 43″ TV or a building wide information system.
Command and Control
Command and control rooms run around the clock, so the AV behind them has to be dependable above everything else. Z Systems designs and installs multi-source video wall systems alongside secure conferencing and monitoring displays for government agencies, utilities, and enterprise operations centers across Minnesota. Dispatchers, operators, and security staff need to see multiple live feeds and data sources at once without a specialist standing by to keep the system running, so control is built around touch panels and simplified switching instead of a rack only an engineer can operate. Cable pathways, power loads, and signal flow are planned in advance, so the room is stable from day one and stays that way for years.
Classroom Tech
Classrooms and lecture halls need AV that a teacher can run without a manual. Z Systems designs and installs classroom technology (projectors, displays, lecture capture, audio, and one-touch control systems) for K-12 districts, colleges, and technical schools. Systems are custom-built and repeatable, making it a breeze to start a lesson no matter which room you’re in. Options range from a single projector and audio setup in a standard classroom to full lecture capture and video conferencing for hybrid learning. Equipment is matched to actual classroom size and teaching style, keeping smaller schools on a no-frills system and larger auditoriums equipped for multi-camera, multi-mic setups.
Worship AV
Houses of worship need AV that supports the service, not the other way around. Z Systems designs and installs worship AV systems for churches across Minnesota, covering sound reinforcement, video streaming, camera systems, and lighting for sanctuaries of every size. Installs are planned in phases when needed, so an existing service schedule isn’t interrupted mid-transition. Audio and video stay live while new gear comes online. Streaming and camera systems let a congregation’s message reach members watching from home, growing the online audience alongside the in-person one. We help make the technical controls so easy that a volunteer can run it.
Our Past Clients
Who is Z Systems?
We’re a group of engineers, videographers, and creatives that come together under a single purpose: to make technology simple. Z Systems has been solving that problem in Minneapolis since 1998, as a woman-owned business that designs, installs, and supports audio-visual systems for businesses, schools, churches, and government agencies across Minnesota. We know how difficult it is to get a great camera shot and crystal clear audio because we’ve done it a thousand times before. We take great care in assisting our clients, whether they are a small municipality or a Fortune 500 enterprise. By matching the solution to the actual need, not the biggest number on the invoice, we’ve made customers smile from Crookston to Preston. One person handles a project from the first design conversation through install and every service call after, so nothing gets lost in a handoff. We measure our own success the way our clients do: a system that’s still running without issue years later, operated by whoever walks in to use it, not just the person who installed it. Technology is complicated. We just happen to be good at making it simple.
