INFOCOMM: X2O Media unveils latest version of X2O Web Portal

June 17, 2009

MONTREAL — X2O Media is demonstrating the latest version of its X2O Web Portal at this week's InfoComm '09. The X2O Web Portal is a comprehensive Web-based platform for managing, planning and scheduling content for digital signage networks of any size. By combining network monitoring, content management, live data-feed management, advertising campaign tools and customizable reporting features, the X2O Web Portal provides unprecedented power through an intuitive Web interface that greatly reduces the resources and time required to set up, control and maintain a digital signage network.

The X2O Web Portal's network-management tools provide complete control over all players in a network, with live thumbnails and detailed real-time performance information available for any player at any time. Integration with Google Maps lets network managers view detailed maps showing the locations of all players in their network in graphical, satellite or hybrid views. This allows managers of complex, geographically dispersed networks to quickly track down any problem and take action, minimizing downtime and dramatically simplifying the troubleshooting process.

The X2O Web Portal extends the power of the Xpresenter platform to the Web, making many of the features of the Xpresenter desktop applications accessible to users located anywhere in the world. The X2O Web Portal also includes:

• A comprehensive user-management system that allows administrators to define user roles and permissions, limiting access to specific portal features, player locations and content.
• An advertising module that gives users the necessary tools to manage their ad campaigns effectively, including managing advertising assets and approvals, fulfilling client requirements and providing proof-of-performance reports.
• Flexible reporting tools, allowing users to generate customized network performance and as-run logs for all players on the network.
• Powerful real-time data-feed management tools, allowing any feed from X2O's data service to be directed to any player or group of players using a high-level configuration screen.
• Customizable Web control screens that can be used to manage virtually any aspect of system playout through an extremely user-friendly Web-based interface. Web control screens can be customized to address specific content-management requirements and workflows, and network managers can restrict access to any screen for better control and security.
