Userful Announces New Drag-And-Drop Command and Control Module for Visual Networking Platform

Interactive Control Tool Provides Flexibility to Move and Resize Unlimited Display Sources in Real-Time

Userful Corporation, a leading provider of video communication solutions, announced a real-time interactive drag-and-drop control tool to the Visual Networking Platform. With the new Command and Control Module, users can move and resize unlimited sources on a video wall or large display directly from a web browser — allowing for efficient source management.

Conventional control rooms require extensive setup and training to operate. The traditional software is designed for dedicated and trained operators with large budgets to purchase and maintain equipment. However, many organizations have placed an emphasis on mobility and virtual communication relying on quick visual collaboration, monitoring and real time response across many areas of their business, not just in multi-million dollar control rooms with full-time staff.

“Many organizations can benefit from a control room, but clearly want more simplicity, flexibility, and cost savings to deploy it,” said John Marshall, CEO of Userful. “From control rooms and operation centers to meeting rooms, data visualization and social media monitoring, this new tool gives full power and control to operators to control visual content and significantly improve operations in the organization. AV resellers are also looking for an entry point into the lucrative control room market that is simple to support and understand, which Userful can provide.”

Key features of the command and control module include:

An entirely browser-based tool that runs on any platform; no additional software to install or manage and integrate seamlessly with current client software
Unlimited number of sources and user licenses for increased flexibility
Multiple operators can work simultaneously on the same display
Can work entirely on LAN; no WAN or internet connection required for increased security
Easy and intuitive interface that does not require additional training

Userful provides the industry-leading approach to visual communications, the Visual Networking Platform. The architecture allows organizations in all industries, ranging from telecommunications to transportation, to take maximum advantage of video and other visual displays to improve operating performance and reduce total cost of ownership (TCO). Products that make up the visual networking platform include software, a cloud platform, and apps that enable AV/IT teams to make visual content of any type available on a virtually unlimited number of screens. Organizations in more than 100 countries have deployed Userful solutions on more than 1 Million screens to date.
