Anaheim, California (June 18, 2008) - Extron Electronics is pleased to introduce GlobalViewer® Enterprise, a new server-based software for managing and supporting larger AV installations using a Web browser. It provides an easy upgrade path for existing users of Extron's free GlobalViewer Web application using step-by-step menus, not programming. Compatible with any Web browser, GlobalViewer Enterprise provides enhanced help desk functionality, enterprise-wide global scheduling and monitoring, time-stamped AV system data collection for reporting, and also supports integration of rooms controlled by other programmable control systems, such as AMX and Crestron. The easy-to-use interface offers a view of the entire enterprise in a single window and access to detailed room data with just a click of a mouse.

"GlobalViewer Enterprise is built on Extron's philosophy of delivering configuration-based control solutions and, therefore, does not require any programming knowledge," says Lee Dodson, Vice President of Marketing for Extron Electronics. "It represents a step up in both scale and sophistication from our free GlobalViewer Web application."

Built on Microsoft® .NET technology, GlobalViewer Enterprise integrates seamlessly with 3rd party schedule/resource management software for viewing room availability and managing meeting schedules. Additional features include WebCam support for help desk applications, proactive firmware management capabilities, and user-definable hotlists for keeping track of vital system administration tasks. GlobalViewer Enterprise offers the security and power needed to remotely manage large IP Link-enabled AV installations that span not only buildings, but cities, states, and countries.
