Is EScreenz™ for Colleges/Universities perhaps the best in-house communication medium ever invented? Better than email, better than the telephone, better than an intranet, better than instant messaging….?
What is EScreenz™? EScreenz™ is an Interactive Content Solution that re-purposes the traditional screensaver to a startlingly effective communication tool.
EScreenz™ is used by colleges and universities to effectively and securely communicate throughout the enterprise or by departments:
- Reinforce training
- HR Issues
- Communicate in other languages
- Calendar events
- Safety reminders
|
- Departmental Procedures
- Align Goals and Objectives
- Focus / Align Staff to Organizational Vision
- Urgent messaging (Fire Drills, Generator Test)
|
|
Escreenz™ rich feature set makes it to in-house systems what Microsoft Word™ is to Notepad. For instance it has no limitations as to the number of messages that can be delivered to a computer. The benefit is that a series of messages either related or unrelated to each other can be seen. Remarkably, it also allows different messages to targeted users/user groups. This feature means that within a college/university or any other enterprise, inner communications can for the first time actually control desktops on a departmental level. The implications are enormous. Students can get meaningful information while faculty/staff are getting training reinforcement and the finance group is being made aware of new compliance regulations and procedures. All, while every single faculty/staff is being notified of changes in HR policy.

Pervasive. First, screen savers are available on all computers whether they are desktops or laptops. That’s important because that translates into widespread accessibility. That widespread accessibility can be used to enormous advantage.
Active message, Captive user. Second, everyone knows what a screen saver is and what it does. The message is active. The user is electronically bound to the message.
Prioritize. Nothing says to an end user that “This Is Important” better than an organization’s message on a screen saver.
Why not email?
Too easy to ignore. Too much of it. Too easy to throw in the trash. Could inadvertently go to ‘junk mail’ or ‘spam’.
Why not by telephone call?
Too many people to call. Too much voicemail. Takes too long to listen to messages. Easily misunderstood and misinterpreted.
Why not use instant messaging?
Small, ineffective display window with no visual impact. Inability to use interactive forms, video, etc.
Why not use an intranet site?
May not reach the correct audience. Users must actively navigate to the site. |
