Scala's ISV Developers Add Value to InfoChannel Solutions.
Third Party Products
As InfoChannel becomes more pervasive in a number of industries, more and more partners are beginning to develop their own products to complement Scala software for many individual markets.
BIZET(tm) by Lavitsky Computer Laboratories (Advertising and Invoicing)
Anyone looking to generate revenue in advertising needs an InfoChannel / BIZET solution. Combining Scala's easy authoring environment with LCL's advanced scheduling and invoicing package allows your company to focus on ad sales and not expensive, time-consuming video production. Applications include real estate, auto dealership, or hotel TV stations. It is also great for Cable TV and narrowcasting ad networks of any scale.
CastNET(tm) by Alpha Video (Online Collaboration)
The CastNET family of products have specific web-enabled applications that are great complements to InfoChannel whether you are in the education, government, cable, or advertising market. CastNet allows users to work collaboratively in dozens of locations through Alpha's online template interface that includes options to administer content in an authorization process which is great for large corporations or classrooms.
DialAlert(tm) by Satellite Tracking Systems (Updates by Phone)

Simply call in to a system using any touchtone phone and playback any one of a hundred preconfigured scripts. Perfect for inclement weather conditions, natural disasters, emergencies, or if an InfoChannel producer just happens to be out of the office.
eliquidMEDIA Ad Tracker
Welcome to the eliquidMEDIA Ad Tracker for Scala IC3. This dynamic application enables you to easily track all of your advertising through an easy to use interface. When eliquidMEDIA launched Scala's IC3 for our own digital signage, we found that it could be quite difficult to keep track of customers playing on our displays.
AdTracker is a powerful yet easy to use system that provides the entire management team with the ability to see when and where customer ads are playing. With support packages ranging from 1-10 displays, right up to 1000 displays, eliquidMEDIA's AdTracker is a very smart scalable solution.
