Vista Group has announced that Cinergy Entertainment Group is set to migrate its circuit to Vista Cloud, following an agreement signed at CinemaCon.

Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, Cinergy is a premier Family Entertainment Centre (FEC) circuit, operating nine luxury cinema and entertainment venues across Illinois, North Carolina, Oklahoma and Texas.

As part of the agreement, Cinergy will migrate all of its existing nine sites to Vista Cloud’s Moviegoer Engagement capability, with all future sites to go live on Operational Excellence, Vista’s full cloud offering.  

Cinergy will leverage Vista Cloud’s integrated vendor solutions and extensive customisations to enhance its renowned guest experiences and will streamline its operations by significantly reducing the time and effort required to manage systems, networks and security infrastructure.  

“Our decision to move to Vista Cloud was based on stability, security, and ongoing innovation,” says Bill Radtke, Chief Technology Officer, Cinergy Entertainment Group. “Vista Cloud enables our team to spend less time on the nuts and bolts and more time on the bells and whistles, so we can focus on creating top-tier guest experiences.”

“I have been intimately involved with Vista since they signed the first U.S. exhibitor” added David Zylstra, Director of Theatre Technology. “Over the years I have seen all the innovations, and Cloud is the next-gen product we need.”

Stuart Dickinson, Vista Group CEO, added: “We’re delighted that Cinergy has chosen to move their operations to Vista Cloud. As a long-standing client and a leader in the FEC space, we’re grateful for their continued trust and partnership. We are committed to supporting Cinergy with their FEC and extensibility needs, ensuring they can continue to deliver exceptional entertainment experiences to their guests.”
