The New York-based software and services firm is actively collaborating on quick service restaurant menus and messaging with Everbrite, one of the largest and most well-established retail sign companies in North America, and on retail and other out-of-home digital projects with Toshiba. Another partnership with Spectrio builds ComQi’s shopper engagement technology and services into the solutions package of one of America’s top all-inclusive audio/video marketing companies.
The partnership with Milwaukee-based Everbrite leverages that firm’s more than 80 years of experience building signs and visual identification plans for retailers. The ComQi EnGage digital signage platform, and supporting services, is now embedded into a full-turnkey offer provided to Everbrite customers in Quick Service Restaurant and other retail sectors.
Toshiba America Business Solutions started in 2013 deploying digital signage projects that use ComQi EnGage as a central component as part of its newly launched ellumina Digital Signage Managed Business Services turnkey solution. Toshiba re-branded ComQi’s software as “Experience Manager,” a platform supporting services that directly addresses the needs of customers within a variety of vertical markets.
These partnerships are on top of a set of already strong collaborative efforts forged earlier between ComQi and partners. PlayNetwork uses EnGage system in verticals such as fashion retailing. Aceso and VGSi are active in health care, and EWI is lighting up screens in auto dealerships.
This broad spectrum of partners takes advantage of ComQi’s diverse and unique shopper engagement technology suite, which includes:
- EnGage Content Management System: A comprehensive web-based platform to define, manage and measure highly-targeted digital customer touchpoints;
- Passport: A cloud-based platform that power communication and interaction between digital displays and shoppers’ mobile devices;
- EnGage On-Site Manager: Easy-to-use web tools that let store-level staff manage on-screen messaging;
- EnGage Video on Demand: Smartphone and tablet controls that let retailers store, train, demonstrate and assess video content on media players on demand. Approved staff can connect to screens, and then browse and play from the content library.
