Scala Announces the Release of Flagship Digital Signage Platform Scala Enterprise 12.70

MALVERN, Pa., June 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Scala today announced the latest release of its flagship digital signage platform, Scala Enterprise version 12.70, now with a significantly strengthened codebase to allow for faster new feature developments. Improvements in Enterprise 12.70 are directly aligned with the fundamental growth in the level of sophistication and digital signage evolution of Scala customers year over year. Scala, part of the STRATACACHE family of technology companies, continues to add significant investments to enhance the platform for digital signage in stores, restaurants, transportation hubs, corporate campuses and more.  

"In Scala Enterprise releases, we are deliberate about creating a world-class CMS platform that is on pace with the growth of our customers and their digital signage needs," said Rob Aita, Director of Product Management at Scala. "Scala has a 30+ year heritage in digital signage, with proven maturity creating and deploying digital experiences. Many of our customers have evolved from displaying simple content on a screen to having truly creative widgets, customer engagement sensors and running stunning video wall implementations. This means we needed to provide a deeper understanding of their digital network, enhanced monitoring capabilities, as well as a faster provisioning process of Scala players, functions that are mostly absent in many basic CMS available in the marketplace." 

Highlights of Scala Enterprise 12.70

• 64-bit Windows player engine available for new player installations, setting the foundation for performance improvements and feature innovation in future releases. This update also unifies our player engine codebase, allowing for feature parity between our Linux and Windows offerings.
• Player Snapshot now available for Windows players running on Win64. Player Snapshot became available for Linux players in a previous version
• Player Health Rollup is enhanced to show operational health, such as inventory and plan status of players 
• Enhanced Provisioning now available, which allows users to complete the provisioning process from a mobile device, significantly reducing installation time, as well as allowing process to be easily repeatable 

"We made a commitment to revamp our release cycle at the beginning of 2020 — to deliver more frequent versions of Scala Enterprise on a regular spring/fall cadence. By executing on this commitment, our customers can plan more effectively, gain access to requested features and be more predictive in their resource scheduling and budgeting," said Kevin Carbone, CEO of Scala. 

Additional new features include adding player "favorites" and cloneable maintenance jobs to provide additional ease of use to Content Manager. The latest release, Enterprise 12.70 is available at www.scala.com/updates for customers under current Scala Maintenance.
