FOUR WINDS INTERACTIVE TO SHOWCASE LATEST IN DIGITAL SIGNAGE SOFTWARE
PLATFORM AT HITEC 2008
-
Microsoft technologies provide Four Winds digital signage software with
powerful management and content editing capabilities
DENVER, CO – June 16, 2008 -
Four Winds Interactive, an industry leader in the digital signage market,
will showcase the latest in its full-service interactive digital signage
software platform in Booth #1149 at the Hospitality Industry Technology
Exposition & Conference (HITEC) 2008 taking place June 16–19, in Austin,
Texas.
The Four Winds Interactive software platform is an easy-to-use digital
signage system that enables users to flexibly customize content to meet
their individual needs. The software system takes advantage of Microsoft's
familiar, easy to use and widely supported software platform and integrates
with multiple live data types, giving the system a unique competitive
advantage. Four Winds Interactive's use of Microsoft technologies allows
the software to deliver a user-friendly interface and a familiarity not
often found when using a new software platform.
Four Wind's digital signage platform is built on the Microsoft .NET
Framework, giving Four Winds the flexibility to adapt to the newest version
of the Microsoft Windows operating system. By integrating with Microsoft
SQL Server and Active Directory, the software is able to recognize multiple
users on the system and automatically track changes that have been made,
ensuring all users are aware of content updates before closing out of the
system. Seamless integration with several data sources, including
Microsoft Office Excel, offers users the option to take advantage of the
popular live data features within the software. Network managers can also
add Microsoft Office Word and Microsoft Office PowerPoint files as two of
the many content types offered in the interface.
"The hospitality industry is increasingly looking to take advantage of
technologies such as digital signage that support a more interactive and
differentiated guest experience,"
said Sandra Andrews, U.S. hospitality industry solutions director,
Microsoft Corp.
"The Four Winds digital signage system, built on the Microsoft platform,
creates a powerful solution for hoteliers to better capture the attention
of today's new breed of guest – making it easier to deliver dynamic,
relevant and visually compelling content throughout the property."
According to Four Winds President David Levin,
"We have recently added Microsoft Virtual Earth to the software, allowing
us to continue our ongoing enhancement of the features available through
the Four Winds Interactive digital signage software platform. Working
with Microsoft aligns us with technologies that add significant value to
our software and helps us meet our core objectives: designing a solution
that is headache free, always fresh and easy to use."
