Note: Virtual EMS Mobile™ is compatible with most newer generation cellular phones via their web browser. This includes devices running Windows Mobile®, the BlackBerry® smartphone and iPhone®.
New parameter: Max Length for Event Name1 Keep it short… Or long! This new parameter controls the maximum allowable event name users can enter when creating a reservation.

Event Calendar report enhancements1 The Event Calendar report can now be printed in weekly format by room. Also, cancelled events can now be shown in a strikethrough font.
Additional fields in Query Builder and Browser1 New fields are available in the Query Builder and the Browser: Web Process Template, Room Feature and Contact Notes.

Edit Counts tool1 Streamlined stats! A new Edit Counts tool in the Navigator allows you to easily update Setup Count and Attendance for multiple bookings on one screen.
Dashboard and past due Reminders1 If you rely on Reminders, here’s another way to keep them front and center: The Dashboard can now be configured to open automatically when EMS is started if past due Reminders exist.
Multi-select for Virtual EMS Facilities field2 This capability allows users to multi-select the buildings in which they want to check availability.
New Virtual EMS parameter: Show Service Availability2 This parameter determines if the Service Availability link is shown on the Reservation Summary.
