OVERVIEW
RMS Enterprise is scalable client/server based software for IT and AV managers that provides remote management capabilities for AV assets and building systems. The software features a user-friendly dashboard making it easy to centralize the management and monitoring of AV equipment, lights, HVAC and other building functions. This allows end users to proactively maintain AV displays before a bulb burns out or receive immediate notification when a device goes offline. IT and AV managers can improve their response times and end users will reduce the amount of lost productivity while waiting for meeting room equipment to function. For integrators, RMS Enterprise natively supports the AMX Standard NetLinx API (SNAPI) which greatly simplifies adding control and monitoring to any RMS system. In order to ensure your RMS software is always updated with the latest feature enhancements plus access to AMX's top-tier Technical Support team with in-depth knowledge of RMS, AMX offers a RMS Software Maintenance Agreement (RMS SMA) for RMS Enterprise. Available in one-year increments, this renewable service plan provides organizations with a maintenance program that makes it easy to keep RMS current combined with AMX Technical Support. For more details, visit www.amx.com/products/RMS-ENT-SMA.asp.

RMS Enterprise also features the RMS Enterprise Scheduling Interface, which improves the efficiency of meeting spaces and technology by allowing users and support personnel to schedule meeting spaces, preconfigures room technology for upcoming meetings.

RMS Enterprise provides web pages allowing a mobile device web browser to see a listing of the current day's events for a given location. A new global system configuration page allows the RMS administrator to enable or disable the mobile scheduling web application feature globally.

If you wish to take advantage of all the benefits and features of RMS application without installing and managing the physical server infrastructure, please try RMS Enterprise Hosted Cloud Service.
