AMX RMS - Room Scheduling and Management Solution

Managing, monitoring and tracking fixed and mobile assets and scheduling meeting/class rooms is an essential process for any organisation seeking to optimise its presentation, conferencing and educational operations.  The AMX RMS is a robust software package designed for IT professionals, facility managers and meeting and classroom users to provide them with a centralized, streamlined way to achieve this.

RMS boasts a number of key features which save time and resources while increasing your return on investment:

  • Equipment Monitoring and Proactive Maintenance.  RMS constantly monitors equipment in your system and, in real time, reports any disturbances in functionality by paging or generating an email to the appropriate member(s) of your staff.
  • Professional Help Desk and Monitoring.  Leverage real-time notifications with two-way messaging and/or paging.
  • Multilingual Support.  MS supports eight languages and localizes based on the user's installed operating system.
  • Meeting Room Scheduling and Configuration.  MS combines scheduling, equipment configuration and customized touch panel signage to make room preparation a snap.  Appointments can be set three ways.
  • Maintaining Data.  MS works seamlessly with your database server to log data, create a variety of instant reports and export log data for customized reporting.
  • Instant, Web-Based Reports. Remain organized and efficient by tracking equipment usage and performing preventative maintenance.
  • Flexible, Intuitive Interface.  MS's point-and-click interface makes it easy to find what you are looking for with simple-to-understand text descriptions. A Web-based interface allows access for multiple users from any location, even operating simultaneously.
  • Asset Security.  MS keeps your investments secure by sending instant alerts when assets - such as a projector or mobile A/V cart - are unplugged or relocated. Additionally, feel secure knowing that the administrative functions are password protected.
  • Notification Groups.  Administrators can monitor devices by assigning them to 14 different notification parameters (security, maintenance, network, etc.) and sort within these notification groups based on device type, room or group
  • Redundant Server with Failover Support.  To minimize server downtime, RMS will enable the deployment of several backup methods to protect your data.
  • Device and Asset Tracking.  Create and register any asset - such as tables/chairs, flip charts, podiums/lecturns and mobile A/V carts - for inventory management.  Instant notifications can then be sent when these items are moved.
  • Automation Based on System Conditions.  Configure MeetingManager to perform a specific function as a result of a pre-defined event.

It is currently being used in a number of large educational institutions and corporate presentation facilities.  To find out how the RMS may revolutionise the management of your systems, please Contact Us .
