August 9, 2007 The world is awash with information and we’re spoiled for choice in terms of how we access this information or make contact with people. But when it comes to ensuring a person actually gets the message in a time sensitive situation or trying to disseminate information on a broad front, the array of choices can be more of a hindrance than a help, resulting in sending the same thing by phone, fax, sms, e-mail, pager or a dozen other mediums. e2Campus is a system designed to reduce this wasted time and improve security on campus by facilitating instant cross-platform communication at the push of a button.

The creation of Omnilert, e2Campus allows authorized campus officials to send messages to the university web site, as well as the mobile phones, email accounts, social networking sites, blackberries, RSS readers and pagers of the entire campus community with just a single click of a button. Furthermore, the system requires no additional phone lines or traditional software to run, increasing the efficiency in which it can be installed and integrated into the running of the community.

At the Campus Technology 2007 Conference, Omnilert announced an addition to the system in the form of digital signboards that can be placed around the university. The Exhibio digital signage system receives the E2Campus messages in the same manner as the mobile phones and websites, increasing the saturation of the info without taking up any extra time.

The e2Campus service costs about US$1 per user per year, depending on the total number of recipients to be covered. Exhibio digital signage systems retail for US$3195.
