SCHENECTADY, N.Y. — Transfinder has approved four companies that provide parent portal solutions to be included in its Marketplace of vendors that integrate with Transfinder technology.

Parent portal solutions are products that provide parents and guardians with information about their children's bus routes and bus stops as well as real-time information about arrival times.

Transfinder’s Marketplace is a clearinghouse of vendors that complement or integrate with Transfinder’s technology. The Marketplace features products and companies in a number of categories, including camera technology, GPS, and now parent portals.

The four products and the companies to be added to the Marketplace in the parent portal category are:

•    Here Comes the Bus by Synovia Solutions LLC
•    MyBusVue by Zonar
•    SafeStop by SafeStop Inc.
•    Treker by Treker

Also under development is Transfinder’s Stopfinder, which will also be included in the Marketplace in the parent portal category.

“We are happy to have these four well-respected and highly regarded companies included in the Marketplace,” said Antonio Civitella, Transfinder’s president and CEO. “It is our desire to create a one-stop-shop for schools looking for parent portal technology to increase or improve communication with the families they serve. We believe these Marketplace products by SafeStop, Synovia, Treker, and Zonar are the best of the best.”
