You can check them out at splyce.com  |  IP: Logged Jamie Glossop Expert Film Handler Posts: 100 From: Nottingham Uk Registered: Jan 2004 posted 10-02-2005 03:41 AM                        Thanks for the link, It looks good  |  IP: Logged Amanda Jones Film Handler Posts: 92 From: Indianapolis, IN, USA Registered: Aug 2005 posted 10-02-2005 11:37 AM                     There is also radiant. I've never worked on the system from a management standpoint but for point of sale on concession and box office it is good. I prefer the layout on radiant as opposed to splyce. Radiant also has touch screen for the concession where Spylce doesn't. http://www.radiantsystems.com/ Another plus to Splyce is if you are planning on doing online ticketing. When we put in our weekly show schedule into our computer and process at the end of the night it automatically updates to fandango. Just keep in mind that support for both of these is hard to get a hold of. You call support and place an intial call and then they will contact a service guy who will call you back to help trouble shoot the problem. The cool thing is that they will be able to dial into your computer to help fix the problem. Our guy especially likes to do that at midnight or later because he is pissed that he was awoken out of bed so instead of telling us how to fix the problem in case it happens in the future he just fixes it for us, sometimes without calling to tell us it has been fixed.  |  IP: Logged Jamie Glossop Expert Film Handler Posts: 100 From: Nottingham Uk Registered: Jan 2004 posted 10-03-2005 01:26 PM                        That sounds good, Safes the work, Thanks for the link, Just checked it out, It looks good, It is good for them to be able to dial into the comp to be able to fix it, I like that idea  |  IP: Logged Amanda Jones Film Handler Posts: 92 From: Indianapolis, IN, USA Registered: Aug 2005 posted 10-03-2005 01:28 PM                     Yeah it is a good idea but they never call you back and tell you it has been fixed which is rather annoying late at night when you are waiting for the problem to be fixed so that you can go home.  |  IP: Logged
