You may have wondered why it is so important to have a good sound system in companies, and the answer is very simple: in addition to creating an ambiance for the location, audio can assist in marketing strategies and optimize the daily operations of your operational and security teams.
But to understand how a single system can do all of this, just keep reading this post! ?
Flexibility and security
It is no secret that an IP audio system has various functionalities that enhance the daily operations of companies in a very simple way, but to enjoy all the benefits, it is necessary to expand one's thinking a bit and be creative with the possibilities.
For example, let’s visualize a retail store where the flow of people is considerably high, generating greater attention for the entire security team and also requiring a higher level of support from the staff.
Now that you have an idea in mind, let’s present 4 reasons and think about all the benefits that an IP audio system would have for this business, such as:
- 1. – Sound ambiance: It is proven that the longer a person spends in your store, the higher the probability that they will consume or buy something there. Therefore, even though it seems simple, creating a sound ambiance, especially in retail, is very important.
- 2. – Marketing strategies: Still thinking about retail, whether it is a retailer or not, leveraging the IP audio system in your marketing strategies with announcements of daily or weekly promotions can be a very important point to consider, in addition to generating savings.
- 3. Guidance: Now thinking about the operational side of the business, the system can also be used to communicate and give remote guidance to employees, for example, notifying Mr. Raul that department X needs his presence, saving time on travel and efforts to find the employee.
- 4. Support for security: Additionally, the sound system can also be used as support for the security team, issuing programmed alerts (in cases of integrations with other systems) or live alerts for potential intruders, for example.
These are just a few points that can be extremely beneficial for the scenario we imagined, but there are many other points that can be considered and planned according to each client's needs with the support of SilliS.
But how to manage this system?
We have seen that having a good sound system can be a great strategy for companies, but being able to manage this system is also very important.
That’s why today we will present SIMM.PRO Media Under Control, the most complete media management software on the market developed by SilliS.
With it, you can manage not only the speakers but also the LED panels. Additionally, it allows you to control all announcements, informational messages, and ambient sounds that will be made throughout the day, week, month, or year all at once and in an agile and proactive manner, facilitating your operation's daily routine.
It is intuitive and has various features for the moment of registering hardware and for possible future changes. For example, when registering a device in the system, you can specify whether it is an audio or text output, whether it is active or inactive, and what its manufacturer is.
Moreover, one of its advanced features allows you to issue a monitoring report of online and offline hardware through Ping by IP and port every 15 seconds.
Another differentiator of SIMM.PRO is at the moment of registering zones where you can specify whether that area is active or inactive and select a leader speaker – the one that will receive the information and disseminate the content among the others in the same zone – and a backup speaker – which will replace the leader if it is not functioning.
And there’s more, in cases of audio playback, the user can select whether the volume of the schedule will be configured by zone or by the schedule itself, with the standard volumes being: very low, low, medium, high, and very high.
There are so many benefits that it’s hard to list them all, but here are a few:
- Schedule events via link
- Pause and reactivate schedules
- Store media in folders and subfolders
- Automate the self-calibration of your audio devices remotely
- Set volume by time range
- Synchronize audio messages and LED panels
- Create a custom playlist with guidance, informational messages, or announcements
- Integrate with SIMM.Center – a multi-activator terminal for instant communication in moments when every second counts.
Extra: SIMM.PRO is compatible with Axis speakers and can also work in conjunction with AXIS Manager Edge.
