Companies partner to develop ScheduleIt!, a cost-effective, scheduling solution.

Las Vegas, June 9, 2010

–

ViewSonic® Corp.

, a leading global provider of computing, consumer electronics and communications solutions, today at

InfoComm 2010

announced a partnership with customized rich-media software solution provider,

Best Wave

, to offer a quick and easy solution for deploying digital room schedule displays outside meeting and conference rooms. ViewSonic will be unveiling this new ScheduleIt!  software at booth N2375.

With ScheduleIt!, users can automatically create and update digital meeting room schedule displays right from their Outlook calendar. Compatible with Personal, Shared, and Exchange Server configurations, this cost-effective solution is designed for companies of all sizes. Users can easily set sign formatting, including the background, text/font style, font and color, as well as the title, sub-title and footer wording. Additional options include displaying the current date and time. While over 30 backgrounds are included with the software, custom backgrounds may be created in Photoshop to fit perfectly with corporate designs and color schemes. 

“We are pleased to offer businesses of any size a simple and low cost solution to their meeting room scheduling requirements,” said Michael Holstein, vice president of business development for ViewSonic. “Through partnerships with industry leaders such as Best Wave, we are able to give our customers a one-stop solution to scheduling, no matter the number of rooms in need of up to the minute updating.”

"Other solutions of this nature can easily cost $10,000 or more for the software alone, due to the fact that they typically include meeting management software as well,” said John Glitsos, president of Best Wave. “By partnering with ViewSonic and its networked player solutions, we are able to give customers a solution that works seamlessly with Outlook, something they already have in place for a substantial cost savings."

ScheduleIt! works with any SMIL digital media player such as ViewSonic’s

NMP-550

and

NMP-600

players,  along with any

LCD screen

. ScheduleIt! also works seamlessly with ViewSonic’s 10”

CD1010

small screen display with built-in 802.11b/g/n wireless.

ScheduleIt! is currently available, starting at an MSRP of $1,200 for support of six conference rooms. A free trial of the software is also available now at
