Symon Dacon provider of turnkey digital signage solutions has partnered with iBAHN, leader in broadband and digital communications for the hospitality industry, to provide state-of-the-art visual communications solutions to hotel clients.
Symon Dacon have selected iBAHN as their strategic hospitality reseller across EMEA, this partnership will make the complete Symon digital signage offering available through iBAHN.
As digital signage adoption increases within hospitality and questions begin to emerge regarding ROI and added value, together Symon Dacon and iBAHN are providing a solution that will enhance the guest experience and in turn help deliver a faster ROI. The partnership will provide hoteliers with a sophisticated solution that will enable them to expand their visual communications beyond public signage to in-room TV.
As part of this partnership Symon Dacon and iBAHN will integrate their platforms; Symon Enterprise Software (SES) and ETVi, iBAHN’s iPTV platform. This will enable hoteliers to deliver timely and targeted information such as spa information and restaurant promotions directly to guests in their rooms. This is done using a single design tool ‘Design Studio’ to power the complete visual communications infrastructure. This includes meeting room displays, interactive kiosks, video walls, 3D displays, InView Mobile (which allows hotels to push signage content directly to guests Smartphone) and iPTV via iBAHN’s ETVi platform.
Guest interaction is an integral part of the Symon solution, says Rob Brinklow, Symon Dacon’s Hospitality Channel Manager; the more guests engage with content is the more they connect with a hotel brand and ultimately the more they spend. Our partnership with iBAHN reinforces our view that digital signage should be more than simply ‘screens on walls’, on the contrary it should be part of a complete visual communications infrastructure.
The intelligent Symon software can collect and display content from numerous hotel and event management systems such as Micros Opera and Newmarket Delphi, to display real-time content and automatic data triggers based on ‘logic’. This could include displaying content based on time of day, day of the week, guest demographics and event information.
Through iBAHN, Symon Dacon provides complete turnkey solutions including consultancy, software, hardware, content, installation, maintenance and support.
