Theater management system
Schedules, staff access, parking and loyalty — the coordination around every sale, on one set of records.
A theater management system coordinates a cinema’s day-to-day operations — show scheduling, staff access, parking, loyalty and record keeping — alongside ticketing and concessions. In Picovico they run on one platform.
Show scheduling without the spreadsheet
Screen allocation and showtimes are managed in one place. Conflicts are flagged before publishing — not after a customer is holding a ticket. A schedule change reaches the box office without anyone re-entering it.
- Screen and showtime allocation across every auditorium
- Staggered start times to spread the interval load
- Conflicts flagged before publishing
Staff access that does not rely on supervision
Role-based access means each person sees only what their job requires, and shift reports make discrepancies traceable.
Parking and loyalty, on the same platform
Parking is validated against bookings, and loyalty points are redeemed at the counter — recorded with tickets and concessions instead of in separate systems.
One cinema or several
Every location under one login, with pricing kept consistent across sites and consolidated reporting for head office.
Questions operators ask
What is a theater management system?
The software layer that coordinates a cinema’s daily operations — scheduling, staff access, parking, loyalty and records — alongside the systems that sell tickets and concessions. Picovico provides both on one platform.
Is this the same as a projection theatre management system (TMS)?
No. Picovico is cinema business and operations management software: show scheduling, staff access, parking and loyalty, alongside ticketing, concessions and reporting. It does not control projection equipment or playback.
How is it different from ticketing software?
Ticketing sells and allocates seats. A theater management system handles what surrounds that: which film runs where and when, who can access what, and how parking and loyalty are recorded.
Can we control what each staff member can access?
Yes. Access is role-based, and shift reports show activity by shift.
Can we run several cinemas on it?
Yes. Every location is under one login, with pricing kept consistent across sites and consolidated reporting for head office.
