Billed as an “end-to-end digital signage platform”, including content authoring, scheduling, distribution and remote management applications, Xpresenter offers new functionality – including a number of interactive configurations, and an LCD and plasma ‘smart’ screen control feature – in its latest incarnation, Version 2.1. The package also includes the patented Xpresenter Template Maker (pictured), which is said to allow Microsoft PowerPoint users to produce broadcast-quality graphics without leaving the PowerPoint interface.
