Best U.S.
Colleges Adopt AxisTV to Deliver Visual Communications
August 30, 2007
ATLANTA, GA — Visix, Inc. welcomed the announcement of
U.S. News and World Report’s ranking of America’s Best Colleges
2008, which showed that 30 percent of the nation’s top schools are using
Visix’s AxisTV unified communications applications.
The list of notable
colleges and universities includes Harvard, Northwestern, and Johns
Hopkins as well as smaller schools like Bryant University and Spelman
College in Georgia. U.S. News publishes its Best Colleges report
each year based on data gathered from participating schools for up to 15
indicators of academic excellence. Rankings include top national
universities, as well as subsets in liberal arts, engineering, business,
masters and baccalaureate categories.
Of all schools ranked
for excellence this year, 74 have deployed Visix technologies, which
provide a sophisticated, campus-wide communication solution to deliver
news, announcements, event schedules and emergency alerts to students,
visitors, faculty and staff. The company’s suite of browser-based
software allows for timely distribution of static and video content to
thousands of overlapping endpoints that range from large screen and flat
panel displays, projectors, televisions, desktops, mobile phones and RSS
enabled devices.
“We’re honored to partner with so many
excellent colleges and universities,” comments Trey Hicks, Vice
President of Sales for Visix. “Higher education venues are really
challenged today to communicate effectively across so many channels.
We’re focused on providing them with tools that are easy to use, yet
powerful enough to reach every audience member when and where needed.”
