LoopNet's iPad/iPhone App for Enterprise Solution Customer - The Shopping Center Group - Wins 2011 "Digie" Award at Realcomm

SAN FRANCISCO, June 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- LoopNet, Inc. (Nasdaq: LOOP), a leading provider of commercial real estate marketing, technology and information services and operator of the most heavily trafficked commercial real estate marketplace, today announced that LoopNet enterprise client The Shopping Center Group (TSCG), one of the country's leading retail real estate advisory companies, has been honored with a 2011 "Digie" award for its private label iPad and iPhone mobile applications.  LoopNet developed the native iPad and iPhone Apps for TSCG, which is headquartered in Atlanta, GA.

The Digie awards, which recognize those companies, projects, and solutions that have demonstrated the most innovative use of technology and automation in commercial and corporate real estate, are presented annually at Realcomm.  The Shopping Center Group (http://www.theshoppingcentergroup.com/) and LoopNet (http://www.loopnet.com/) won a 2011 Digie award for "Best Use of Technology" by a commercial real estate brokerage firm.  The awards were announced on June 14 in Orlando at the Realcomm 2011 conference.

The Apps, which were custom branded with the brokerage firm's logo and corporate colors, provide The Shopping Center Group brokers and clients with full access to their firm's entire inventory of exclusive availabilities, property photos and listing flyers while in the field with clients.  Having comprehensive mobile access to listing information through the iPad and iPhone applications allows brokers to address changing client requests immediately and accelerate transactions.  Additionally, the Apps save on printing costs, since brokers no longer need to print or carry marketing materials for every potential property a client might want to see.  These applications are offered as a feature of LoopNet's Enterprise Marketing Package.

"We are honored that The Shopping Center Group won the prestigious Digie award for their custom implementation of LoopNet's iPad and iPhone applications, and very appreciative of the recognition of our newest mobile technologies," said Mike Manning, LoopNet's Vice President of Marketing.  "Our applications can be customized for clients so they have a far more efficient way to communicate with and serve their clients."

LoopNet released the commercial real estate industry's first iPhone App in early 2010, and has continued to innovate rapidly to bring new, cutting edge marketing and information sharing technologies to its corporate and individual clients.  LoopNet's iPhone App was voted the #1 commercial real estate App by Inman News in 2010.  To learn more about private label iPad options, contact LoopNet's Enterprise Solutions team at [email protected].
