Kramer partners with Zignage to create instant alerts management solution

Jerusalem, Israel, October 21 2021 - Kramer Electronics Ltd. has partnered with Zignage LLC,  a US based mission critical digital signage provider, to bring to market an extensive emergency notification solution, integrating with the Kramer VIA and Kramer Control platforms. Designed specifically for education and enterprise markets, classrooms and boardrooms, this all-in-one solution will enable critical information in a visual format to reach a large aggregation of students and workers.

This solution will help manage hybrid campuses and workplaces and to escalate alerts in all existing and new displays used for content sharing.  The solution is integrated with any established emergency management systems and propagating the alerts in areas that can't be reached. The Kramer-Zignage solution enables the display take-over in the classroom or boardroom where emergency alert systems have no ability to do so, and alerts students/workers that an emergency is in process. 

Aviv Ron, Vice President, Corporate Development and Strategy at Kramer;

"We are very pleased to announce our partnership with Zignage. The combination of our wireless sharing and collaboration product line with Zignage software will provide corporations and educational institutions with extended safety features and a seamless way to instantly update the content on digital displays aside from core audio information.

"This will also help businesses to further advance hybrid ways of collaborating. Connecting physical technology to the digital world through services like Zignage’s expands the capabilities of the Professional AV systems to include digital signage and wayfinding options, in addition to content sharing and video conferencing features."

The solution includes a generic Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) alert capability with an ability to preset trigger sequence, beyond any on-premises specific solution that an existing emergency alert system does. It enables organizations to comply with Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) alerts to be completely automated and have it engaged with a designated user acting as a role-based approver, rather than initiator of the message/alert.

 Alex Epshteyn, Zignage CEO comments;

"Now more than ever, schools and universities are seeing the value in being able to quickly and efficiently share important information through emergency alerts. We have seen a sharp increase in enquiries about safe-guarding technology and software and are honored to be working with Kramer to bring more innovative and reliable solutions to the market. 

"Our collaboration with Kramer to integrate into technologies being rapidly adopted by the education sector creates a cost-effective and reliable solution to transform ordinary displays into digital signage and wayfinding beacons."

The partnership with Zignage is one of many recent collaborations Kramer has announced with industry-leading technology providers. Kramer’s growth strategy is based on delivering the ultimate complete solutions to its customers in key vertical markets. These complete solutions are achieved by Kramer’s continued investments in its research and development, to enhance its core products for the specific environments, as well as by partnering with specialty companies who provide unique capabilities, smoothly integrated into Kramer solutions.
