McMaster University, established in 1887 is ranked among the Top 85 Universities in the World. The University comprises 4 campuses spread over 377 acres with over 36,000 students and 7,800 staff members.
Problem
McMaster had several different legacy Digital Signage systems that did not talk to each other, and each system was operated by a different department within the University. The administration needed one unified communication solution that was versatile enough for each department to use, had a simple user interface, and the system needed to integrate into their critical emergency messaging system.
Solution and Results
The L Squared team was able to deliver a one-stop shop for all department communication needs replace all the disparate systems, integrate the emergency messaging, and add 20 buildings to the infrastructure with no increase in costs. The L Squared cloud-based communication solution allows each department to manage its content, has a single invoicing process and allows the University to quickly expand to other departments and buildings with little to no additional costs to administer the solution.
Lastly, we provided them with a robust managed service with a 5-year warranty on the new screens so they can focus on what they do best and not worry about whether the signage is up and running or not.
