CBORD Odyssey PCS™ Beta test program a success!

For Immediate Release

Ithaca, New York—The CBORD Group, Inc., a leading supplier of housing management systems and campus-wide ID systems, is pleased to announce the successful Beta test program for Odyssey PCS™ at Samford University, Birmingham, Alabama and the State University of New York at Cortland, in Upstate New York. The Odyssey PCS system is a powerful TCP/IP, ODBC compliant product, providing a campus-wide solution with the flexibility to grow with a campus and it’s needs. "Overall, it’s wonderful,” said Mike McCormack, Director of Business Services at Samford. “It was an easy install. Now, we have a lot of opportunities for expansion with a Windows based system.” Additionally, they have off-campus vendor relationships which they hope to grow using Odyssey PCS. McCormick stated, “We are excited about the web opportunities Odyssey PCS provides. A whole new level of service can be made available to the students and staff.”

The CBORD Group is currently scheduling commercial installations of Odyssey PCS for this summer at locations nationwide.

“Cashless has created a culture in the organization. People refer to "swiping" and many have come to rely on it. Employees have their ID badge with them at all times and can use it anywhere.”
