I was using a different service previously and we often lost connection to our TVs. It was hard to get the TVs connected, so staff couldn't manage it. I would have to drive back to my business to fix it, or wait until another day and leave the signs offline. With OptiSigns we haven't had a single issue! It's so easy to set up and connect anyone on my team can manage it...and it's half the cost!
Everything is very simple to use, it works great, and is consistent--there is no interruption in service.
I haven't found anything yet! So far everything has been great.

What drove me to this software was its cross platform capabilities. Additionally, the cost of this software per screen is very reasonable for the industry when compared to other solutions. I love the functionality of the software, especially the ability to link to (in real time) any Google Doc and have displayed on a screen. Need to update something, just open the Google Doc and update and it will automatically show on the screen. I am really loving this software and so does my co-workers. It has and will continue to make our lives easier in a ever changing complex environment like ours at the hospital.
I honestly don't have any complaints about the software. I am a avid administrator of MagicInfo and I can say this, that OptiSigns has really outdid themselves, this software rivals even the best of suites at a fraction of the cost.

I had originally used another digital signage product. It was easy enough to use but it didn't perform well when trying to implement short video clips into a playlist. It also had some odd design quirks that made it take a decent amount of time to update everyday. I found Optisigns and that all changed. Video plays without a hitch and it has reduced my time for updates every morning by half. This will be the tool we deploy when we relocate to a larger facility and increase our number of screens in use.
Great design, easy setup, excellent feature set and runs video in playlists.
Nothing. It performs incredibly well. It really streamlined by communications.

En Alicentis hemos elegido Optisigns para una campaña de comunicación gracias a la recomendación de un informático que colabora con nosotros. Llevo menos de una semana practicando con Optising, preparando una campaña para un ayuntamiento de menos de 5.000 habitantes que quiere trasladar información a sus habitantes con pantallas instaladas en los dos centros de salud existentes en el municipio.

Me ha sorprendido su versatilidad, sencillez y posibilidad de preparar una campaña en pocos días. He trabajado con otros programas similares, mucho más difíciles de actualizar, que requieren muchos más paso.
No podemos utilizar la app de Facebook. En la presentación de Optisigns no se respetan los puntos y aparte. Presenta todo el mensaje como un solo párrafo y esto resta calidad a los mensajes, es un aspecto que debe mejorar Optisigns. También deberían de mejorar la presentación del calendario y permitir una opción en castellano. No he encontrado como poner la opción en español (23 – marzo – 2021).

We purchased the preconfigured Raspberry Pis provided by OptiSigns, and it's been a breeze to set them up. The device is shipped already attached to our account, making configuration as simple as plug-and-play. We run these devices 24/7 to display a simple dynamic webpage, and we've had no issues or complaints thus far.
OptiSigns is incredibly simple to set up. I appreciate the wide variety of supported devices and operating systems. On the client side, the interface and experience is consistent across all supported players. The remote control function for Raspberry Pi devices is an excellent additional feature to have. Team and permissions management is native to the OptiSigns platform.
Genuinely enjoy using this product. I have no complaints or feature suggestions at this time.
Thank you Tyler!

We love having OptiSigns for our small business. It allows us to present our custom-designed educational and aesthetic content to our patients in a non-invasive and visually pleasing way.
The software is extremely easy to use and intuitive. It only took a few minutes to set up on each of our Amazon Fire TVs. It supports multiple media formats and displays them seamlessly. The customization available for playlists is fantastic. The best feature is auto-launch, which allows us to display our presentations on our screens without having to do anything besides turn on the TVs.
While the live-update feature is convenient, it might be useful to have an on/off option for this feature so if a playlist is updated while the presentation is playing during business hours, it is not interrupted. The software user interface is clean and simple, but could be more attractive.

I have use a great deal of other software but this by far is the best and affordable solution ever!
It's versatility and how you can use it on almost any platform! I love how easy it is to use too!
I ran into a few problems but it was my error, the media was to big and long. Once I figured it out and converted it to fit correctly. It was beautiful!

Customer support is seriously lacking for a paid service. I was promised a discount with my ongoing commitment with instructions on how to apply for it via email. I followed everything they asked and got NO response and was billed full price. I asked why the discount was not applied and got no response so I canceled the service and then I got a response why I was canceling and what they could do better going forward. I simply replied "honor your agreements" I didn't receive any apologize or any attempt to fix the situation or retain me as a customer. They quite clearly left an impression of "we don't care" whit me. I have since found a better service with another provider.
Easy for users that are new to digital signage. Has all the basic elements you might need but lacks for advanced features. If you require prompt customer support for your project, you will not find it here.
no online support. very basic, small set of modules that are not customizable. No cancellation option, had to go through web form and email that took several days.
Hi Mark, Thank you for the feedback. Any customer can cancel service anytime by reducing subscription to Zero. As for discount, we looked at the communication records for your account in our system, we did responded and applied give you refund for the discount within 24h of your request. If you have further concerns please feel free to reach out to us again.

We've noticed more engagement with the employees. They like that they feel in the know about upcoming events and I like that I don't have to hang a bunch of posters and remember to take them down. OptiSigns has improved communication throughout our company immensely.
We started using OptiSigns for communication throughout our company for our holiday party last year and we love it! It was so nice to be able to put information on the screen and not have to print posters or talk to everyone individually. Especially during Covid, it's been great to relay information through the screens. There are a zillion templates or you can create your own. You can even add video and sound. The playlists are easy to create and control. We looked at a couple products and OptiSigns was the most user friendly and fit inside our budget!
The only thing that I could criticize would be the aligning features. I haven't found a good way to get everything to snap into alignment with other things. There's no grid feature to help keep things in place.

I have only recently been using this software in the free version, but I have already discovered a list of quite incredible possibilities in terms of advertisement distribution ... some of which have never been seen on any other software to date ...
I have used many display software for many years, and by chance I discovered OptiSign which exceeds most of them ... I particularly appreciate the number of applications and the ultra-comprehensive functions. I am inexperienced with this software because I am in a trial period, but I have a great habit of using display software and I must say that I am quite impressed with all these possibilities.
I haven't yet discovered any downside, nor have I been able to look at all of them yet, but I haven't seen a single malfunction

It's all about giving to the customer of retail in the right context at the right time. I can now say if there's a one day special without printing stuff ... or get people throught the door easily.
I don't have to setup too much stuff now. It's all about pushing content and make it happen. That's is just perfect. There's some integration that I'm sure I'll use.
We can sense how it's based on technicality. For example, it's nearly impossible for most of my marketing staff to understand the pourcentage to create zones. The naming (assets), the flow ... is fundamentaly a UI on top of code. So that mean, I can't transfert this task to someone else without a training. And this, mean that the digital sign will not be updated as frequently.

We replaced our old 1970's foam bulletin board with OptiSigns and a 50" TV and we never looked back. It has been tremendously more popular than the bulletin board as we are able to convey a greater amount of information to constituents passing through in the hallways. Video functionality is great as well. I showed the free trial to my boss and she was so impressed we subscribed for 3 screens before the trial was up.
Accepts multiple file types, compatible with cheap media devices (Kindle Fire) for ease of setup, custom slide timers, VIDEO COMPATIBILITY, easy drag-and-drop features, pleasant and simple aesthetic, user functionality, web-based interface (no additional software needed), affordable price for smaller organizations.
Cloud storage could be a little bigger, 1GB is not a lot especially when using videos.

This software gives us the ability to display updates, videos, and other items to our customers easily.

Over the years, I have worked with BrightSign, MagicInfo, Airtame, and a few other odd digital signage solutions. I believe OptiSigns is the only digital signage solution with which I have ever enjoyed working. The product is featureful, extensible, and supported by prompt and exceptionally helpful people. I believe OptiSigns is an excellent solution for simplicity as well as basic and advanced configurations alike.
OptiSigns is easy to use, implement, and maintain. Developing, managing, scheduling, and publishing content is uncomplicated, as is configuring integrations and advanced features. Hardware support is relatively vast.
The content designer can be annoying at times. Sometimes, the undo button will undo multiple prior actions, and grouping elements can alter element attributes, such as drop shadows, font size, etc. Also, on (I believe rare) occasions, identical content, playlists, or zoned layouts can be displayed differently on different hardware.

I love the fact the assets are stored locally, this makes all my videos play fluidly, without hiccups in between assets which as a problem with all the other solutions I had tried.
The scheduling is not super straight forward, but once you get to understand it it works great. I've seen worst.

would highly recommend based on my experiences. I have been using Digital software for the last 3 years on the business and this is the first one that i can allow my staff to use and assist me in updating because of the simplicity.
I have only briefly been using this software, Though its not a revolutionary change from what i have previously used it is certainly simpler and more flexible in what you can do. The app store is great and so far everything looks great on the screens which is an issue i have had previously with my current softwre
Very little if anything. The UI is easy to understand and the scheduler is very easy

The most important factor we saved with the use of Optisigns is Time. It saved the time of our designers. It improved the efficiency. Most importantly our customers are happy with the way we are displaying our products.
This is one of the best software among the digital signages available in the market. Optisigns definitely saved most of our time in the menu display activities we do daily for the customers of our business. The features like remote display management, customizable templates, digital menu boards and multi-screen support are magnificent. We were able to update our changes within a span of seconds just...
We didn't observe any cons which affected our business by using this software. It will be beneficial for us if the templates in restaurant category are increased.

Simple manage digital uploads over multiple screens. The application offers various digital extension uploads for display across multiple digital screens. Capability to manage each individual display via a central hub; permitting users to control upload and display content from none local source. And offers excellent customer support with regards to technical concerns. Issues requiring attention are immediately addressed by chat or phone less 24 hours or reporting. Also, love the time/scheduling feature; allows the user to schedule signage display time/date/source of content, permitting the user to set automation into effect. Finally, enjoyed the built-in capability to design and edit images/videos for upload permitting user creativity.
Price per display I believe could (should) be lowered. Though as a first-time user, you're permitted access to the features, free of no charge for the first 7 days access. This can be a hassle for business owners lacking funds to budget this expense but would like to implement a digital touch to his/her business. Also, not too pleased that the displays relay heavily on internet access. For someone running a business from a mobile setting, this can be costly. The individual would have to invest in additional services such as a mobile hot-spot in order to take advantage of such a useful tool.

I manage a small, seasonal yacht club. Last year my boss decided that he wanted to replace the old white- board that the Club had used for many years to disseminate info to the membership with a digital signboard and he put me in charge of managing it.

I have been really pleased while learning how to use OptiSigns. Their prices are reasonable in my opinion and offer additional discounts for nonprofts and education which is really appreciated!
After researching several content management softwares, OptiSigns was the one myself and my organization settled on for the ease of use, price, and functionality. I am not technology expert myself but I was able to connect OptiSigns to our digital displays within moments and push content out soon after. I was surprised by the available templates and the ease of use of importing my own content.
I wish it was more upfront about the limitations of some platforms. For example, we have two Roku TVs that cannot use all the applications due to the restrictions set by Roku. This is easily resolved by purchasing a Fire Stick but wish that would have been more clear. It doesn't impact my use of this platform though. It would be great if it connected with Canva to easily import material directly from there but again, this is minor in my eyes and easy to work around.
Hello Diahonia, Thank you for your review. Glad to hear that the OptiSigns is easy to use for you. There are limitations on the Roku device. I will pass your feedback on to our Engineer Team.
