New RoBOT™ from Box Office Tickets Inc. prints
tickets anywhere in the world
Free service eliminates the need for
specialized IT
Latest innovation coincides with firm's 10th anniversary
PORTLAND, OREGON, USA - December 22, 2003
— Box Office Tickets Inc. has introduced RoBOT®,
an Internet-based services platform that allows box office
managers to deliver services anywhere in the world, without
the need for expensive and hard-to-manage servers and terminals.
The new product launch marks the company's
10th year as a leader in the development and delivery of innovative
and reliable order processing, admission control and data
management services to the event and entertainment industry.
Internet is InfrastructureSM
The first RoBOT service, available today,
links ticket printing with order processing. RoBOT can manage
any number of ticket printers, making it easy to securely
print tickets on-demand in the box office — or at any
remote location with an Internet connection. Box office managers
simply log into boxofficetickets.com® to process an order
or to request that tickets print. RoBOT takes care of the
communication between the boxofficetickets.com network and
the ticket printer, with tickets printing instantaneously.
Best of all, the RoBOT service is free.
"Why purchase a server-software solution
that will be obsolete in a few years, when you can make the
Internet your infrastructure?" asks George Domurot, President
& CEO at Box Office Tickets Inc. "With RoBOT, you
get the power of a scalable server solution — without
the servers, staff or hassle. And you can serve customers
anywhere, anytime."
First of many services on new platform
Coordinated order processing and remote
ticket printing is the first in a number of planned services
to be delivered via the Internet on the RoBOT platform.
"Our initial objective with RoBOT was
to be able to turn any computer with a standard browser into
a completely functional box office workstation," says
Domurot. "RoBOT is our gateway to providing high-end
services for managing even the most demanding admission control
situations."
A robust, flexible and secure platform for
delivering services over the Internet, RoBOT directly connects
tasks previously considered impossible to connect, such as
a standard HTML page to a ticket printer (or array of networked
printers). An extremely lightweight application, RoBOT runs
invisibly, in the background on any Windows XP computer. Support
for the Mac platform is planned for 2004.
Will be demonstrated at INTIX '04
Box Office Tickets Inc. will be demonstrating
RoBOT at the INTIX '04 Conference (www.intix.org) in Philadelphia,
January 13-15, 2004 at Booth #621.
