Medialon will release Overture, a first of its kind "enterprise-class AV Control Software." Medialon Overture is an effective enterprise-wide AV control software. It controls, monitors, and automates thousands of AV devices in multiple locations, integrates with IT services, and delivers highly interactive user interfaces.
Overture eliminates the cost and burden of hardware boxes by controlling all AV devices via TCP/IP. It is "company-wide", centralized, connected to Microsoft Exchange for room booking, Microsoft Active Directory for credential management, SNMP for logging, and Building Management systems for environment control and energy savings.
Overture uses standard IT technologies both for hardware, allowing the use of smartphones and tablets as user interfaces, and for programming, allowing users to set up and edit their Overture system themselves. Overture is database-driven and relies on configuration for most of its functionalities, eliminating heavy programming. User interfaces are automatically and dynamically generated from information in the database, user credentials, and room booking information.
