Cinedigm Digital Cinema Corp. (NASDAQ: CIDM), the leader in exhibitor software, announced today that Theatre Service Network is using Cinedigm’s Exhibitor Management System (EMS) to further integrate and streamline its feature film booking and buying services. Theatre Service Network’s exhibitor clients will immediately benefit from the increased efficiencies created from EMS and from its robust technology platform which will enable expanded service offerings.
EMS will manage the planning and booking of all feature films and alternative content for Theatre Service Network clients. EMS will integrate with all theatre point of sale systems, consolidate and reconcile box office data, compute film rental expense across multiple client companies, and more.
“After looking at different booking systems for months, we determined that EMS was the best suited to meet the needs of our diverse customers,” says Steve Felperin, owner of Theatre Service Network. “It really modernizes booking and buying. We’re excited that Cinedigm makes technology for the independent theatre owner.”
“EMS is designed to benefit all of exhibition, from the large national circuit to agile booking and buying agencies like TSN. We are thrilled that an experienced veteran like Steve is staying ahead with the latest in industry technology so he can continue to offer his exhibitor clients excellent service,” said Adam Mizel, Chief Operating Officer and CFO of Cinedigm.
