Axiomtek is dedicated to fulfilling the retail industry’s quest to be the best in class. Its advanced, feature-rich and easy-to-deploy SDM-based signage modules and panel PCs are formulated for cutting edge retail applications.
Axiomtek’s SDM Modules and Displays with Acer Being Device Management
In response to the growing demands for centralized management of the digital signage network, Axiomtek has integrated its SDM-based signage modules and panel PCs with Acer Being Device Management (BDM) for complete and fully integrated solutions.
Acer’s Being Device Management (BDM)
The Acer BDM is a cloud-based device management platform, which offers a cost-effective and simplified device management solution with comprehensive remote management capabilities.
Global Device Operation and Management
By bundling Acer Being Device Management, Axiomtek’s SDM platforms offer fully integrated solutions that not only can centralize control and management across systems to improve operational efficiency but also help reduce costs associated with operating a digital signage network. The owner can access local equipment via Internet connectivity and perform various tasks online, whether it is to reboot and control a device, protect against threats, or keep a signage system up-to-date, with no need for on-site execution or a direct configuration change on local equipment and meanwhile minimizing chances of downtime. Any login or updated status will be immediately notified through the cloud to the owner.
Remote Instant Service
When the remote system has a malfunction, the cloud terminal immediately sends a notification to the owner’s system. The owner can quickly find out the root cause of the problem and perform related troubleshooting without logging in the system to re-setup. The remote instant service also allows the owner to remotely update the content by uploading it to the cloud, which will synchronously broadcast new content to each digital display around the world.
Secure Device Replacement and Data Protection
Whenever a digital signage is damaged or retired, the owner can directly install or update relevant information, such as device serial number data, from the cloud. The original data is securely preserved in the cloud to eliminate potential loss of data during data update or conversion.
