The ease to make screens and layouts with the ability to set a schedule. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hardware acceleration but this may be due to the hardware we are using for their software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Like with any piece of software, there is a learning curve. I was able to get everything up and running fairly quickly, but the personal help I got setting things up made all the difference in the world.

They were very responsive, and very friendly, it was a pleasure dealing with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be nice if it was possible to use cheaper equipment to get fantastic results, but even using the cheaper equipment that I used, it still looks very professional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I own and insurance agency and was looking for a solution to put my old Flatscreen into the office and show from time to time some slide to customer. The setup with an amazin fire stick was really easy . And it helped me to show my customers the presentations on a bigger screen. Best it was free for me as i did not use in more offices.

Lot's a different content options like YouTube, images, custom web pages, Facebook, Instagram, and others. All of which can be displayed side-by-side and/or sequenced in playlists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lack of data-driven content options, such as pulling data from 3rd party APIs or spread sheets. For example, it would be great if our menu could pull product prices directly from our cash register API. This is currently only possible by building and hosting a custom web page that performs the data operations and rendering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are several things I like.

Lots of deployment platforms

Great support - Lars is great!

I can manage my customers' screens from anywhere

The management screens are web based

I get live feedback about deployment

The tools are reasonably intuitive..... except one area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main things I don't like about the platform are:

Their reseller/recommender program does not work for me.

I have to buy the nodes and resell them.

I would like to do maintenance, have my customers pay and get reimbursed for my recommendation.

The grouping tools are not the most intuitive. Seems I have to relearn them over and over. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The easy access to various media assets, plus the many ways the service can be configured, make this a great choice to run signage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The first time I started with creating playlists and slides, the interface was a little overwhelming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is intuitive and makes wonderful interactive signage on a touch screen

And is windows based Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s extra simple to understand and so easy it’s actually not a dislike Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simplicity and reliability in combination with the price. It has just what you need for simple digital signage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lacks some advanced features like sorting the feed or limiting how many images to show when it comes to integrations with other third parties, like Instagram. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Play Digital Signage is a well designed platform which is easy to use. The customer care i recieve from Lars and the team is unmatched. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The downside is the inability to use a mobile device to edit or review a playlist. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
