WideOrbit Inc., the leading provider of advertising management software for media companies is pleased to announce the integration of WO Central, the industry’s first, single-source solution for media buyers to purchase TV advertising directly from WideOrbit clients, with InfoTech’s Media Management System (MMS).

“Media buyers who leverage the cutting edge integration of WO Central and InfoTech’s MMS will enjoy a strategic advantage in the marketplace,” said Derek Viglianti, EVP of Marketing Systems for InfoTech. “Importing purchased media from WO Central will save our clients a great deal of time and prevent errors, while allowing them to optimize the performance of their direct response campaigns, by using powerful analytical tools in MMS.”

Mathewson, Founder and CEO of WideOrbit. “WO Central now provides integration with the top three direct response media buying systems and we’ll continue to enhance it to help improve the efficiency and profitability of buying and selling media.”
