Virtual EMS (Web Interface)

Leverage the power of the internet with this web-enabled module for EMS Campus. Virtual EMS provides fully interactive, real-time access to scheduling information via the internet or your organization's intranet. Website visitors can browse the calendar or search for specific events from any computer with an internet browser. Authorized users (employees in your organization, meeting organizers, facility staff, etc.) can, depending on the level of access granted, submit room requests or create self-service reservations directly from the web through a secure, user-friendly interface.

The best way to learn more about Virtual EMS is to test drive it yourself using our live demonstration (please call 800-440-3994 x863 today for a personalized demonstration, and to see additional features that aren't available in the demo version).

Integrated Authentication

This optional module establishes the tightest integration possible between Virtual EMS Campus and your network or web portal. Integrated authentication works with Microsoft Active Directory or your custom web portal to streamline web account maintenance for administrators and enable single-sign on for web users.

Video Display Interface

Imagine automatically displaying your EMS schedule of events on television monitors or electronic signage throughout your facility. The Video Display Interface, which is available for EMS Campus, exports scheduling data in formats that are compatible with some of the more popular video display systems on the market including Symon TargetVision (www.targetvision.com), Janus Computerized Displays (www.janusdisplays.com) and more. There is even an option to export scheduling data formatted for use with Microsoft PowerPoint®. Although we do not sell display system hardware, we would be happy to discuss your needs and share information on some of the systems that our customers use.

Another option to consider is AxisTV from Visix, Inc. (www.visix.com). AxisTV eliminates the need for our Video Display Interface by connecting directly to your EMS database and displaying the schedule of events in real-time. Please contact Visix for complete details.

RoomWizard Interface

EMS Campus can be interfaced with PolyVision's RoomWizard™ units, which serve as electronic room cards and allow walk-up reservations. With this integration, users have the option of booking a room either through EMS or from the RoomWizard touch-screen display mounted outside a conference room. The RoomWizard always shows the current schedule and a convenient red or green light indicates whether the room is occupied or available. By combining advance reservations in EMS with on-the-spot bookings from RoomWizard, organizations can eliminate scheduling conflicts, optimize room utilization, and track impromptu usage.

HR Integration Toolkit

This behind-the-scenes utility keeps contact information in EMS up-to-date, synchronizing it with another system that contains employee data (HR database, Active Directory, etc.). This module can automate the maintenance of contact names, email addresses, billing information, web accounts and more including additions, changes and inactivations. The toolkit includes up to one day of remote consulting to configure and fine tune the integration for your environment.

Plan-a-Meeting Module

The EMS Plan-a-Meeting module (PAM) offers users of Virtual EMS Request/Reserve functionality the convenience of scheduling rooms, resources, and services – and confirming attendee availability – all at one time. PAM, which works with Microsoft Exchange® or Lotus Domino®, not only simplifies meeting scheduling, it can also generate emailed meeting invitations.
