Esprida Enhances Tagwave’s Sensor, Switch and Boards’ Capabilities to Include Never Before Realized In-Depth Remote Management and Repair
News Facts
- Esprida announces a partnership with Tagwave to provide centrally managed digital signage hardware control capabilities to clients.
- Tagwave is a leading developer and manufacturer of boards, sensors and switches for use in signage, self-service and Green IT projects.
Esprida Corporation, a pioneer in the field of remote device management, has announced its collaboration with Tagwave, a leading developer and manufacturer of sensors, switches and boards for use in digital signage, self-service, and micro-network sensors. Through this partnership, Tagwave sensor data and low level functions, such as digital signage volume, are made available to Esprida Server, enabling simultaneous central control and automation for networks of any scale.
Using Esprida Enterprise™, a customer-premise, self-hosted solution, Tagwave and Esprida customers can now access their device deployment environmental information, use tools to proactively manage their remote assets from a secured web browser, and achieve greater control over deployment health.
Combining Tagwave’s environmental sensor information with Esprida advanced operational and power controls facilitates power management strategies, including powering down all digital signage 30 minutes after store closure. Moreover, the Esprida/Tagwave collaboration creates centrally managed rule sets for component watchdog events, such as recycling power to unresponsive printers, digital signage units, etc.
Additional benefits include reducing the network’s carbon footprint and extending the system’s life. This proactive and predictive support minimizes the unscheduled downtime of systems and enhances measurement capabilities.
“We are excited to partner with Tagwave and integrate their technology with Esprida Enterprise to the benefit of our joint customers,” said Anila Jobanputra, president and founder of Esprida Corporation. “Tagwave’s Imagium hardware methodology and embedded sensors provide the Esprida software agents with advanced operational data necessary to maximize our remote device management solutions.”
“The integration of the Esprida remote device management solution provides our customers with a ready-to-use toolset to significantly reduce costs and increase efficiency in the management of their deployment devices,” said Vilmar L. Gaertner, CEO of Tagwave. “Through our respective solutions, we are able to provide our customers with capabilities like never before.”
Through the Esprida/Tagwave partnership, kiosk, digital signage and unattended equipment deployers now have the ultimate and most cost-effective control over their networks.
