CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - Nov. 1, 2011) - Quorum Information Technologies Inc. (Quorum)(TSX VENTURE:QIS) announced today an alliance with VenueVision Media Systems, a leading provider of digital communications solutions, including digital signage, designed to deliver promotional advertising to dealership showrooms and service departments, and value added time sensitive information through integration with Quorum's dealership and customer management system, XSellerator™.

"Quorum continuously strives to offer our customers leading technology and integration. VenueVision® fits that directive by offering high impact media presented on flat panel displays strategically situated throughout the dealership and includes information directly out of XSellerator," said Mark Allen, Quorum's Vice President of Sales, Marketing and Services. He continues, "In a time when electronic communication is becoming more prevalent, our customers are demanding new ways to communicate electronically with their customers. VenueVision®'s ability to deliver service appointment info and updates to vehicle status during servicing via a vehicle status display in the customer lounge fits Quorum's vision."

Quorum will push service appointment and repair order information directly to VenueVision® so that the information displayed is timely and relevant in the service department. Additionally, the status display in the service department allows the dealers to include advertising content such as new product videos, OEM advertising campaigns and service specials.

David Kinnear, President of VenueVision®, stated, "Our goal is to enhance the customer's experience by improving communication utilizing multiple touch points including in store signage. First impression and perception that dealers are employing advanced communications solutions leads to a better experience and improvement in CSI scores. Integration with Quorum's dealership management system, XSellerator, opens the door for us to provide our solution to Quorum customers". VenueVision's solution can email service status changes or completion to clients and integrates the information into the dealer's website. These features contribute to lower call volumes to the service department from customers checking the status of their service, and improve customer satisfaction and retention.
