Reviewed 6 months ago

Absolutely great. Could wish for more

Pros

The setup is extremely straight forward and updating all kinds of content is easy and intuitive to do. Without any lags content is pushed to all screens and never failed to play.

Cons

explanation of the Apps. Some more advanced apps are missing a comprehensive how-to explanation of features and instructions to use.

Remote access is the key! Being able to see live updates in real-time.

Cons

Having to log into the client's social media on your phone before allowing OptiSigns to use for the social media add-on.

Great choice for my cookie shop

Reviewed 3 months ago

I'm very glad with the application and excited about the new possibilities it brings to my business.

Pros

OptiSigns is very friendly and easy to use. I could set it up by myself and started using at the same day. It’s also great to have the possibility to update my playlist remotely and instantaniouslly.

Cons

I had a bit of difficult setting up multiple screens, but after reading some troubleshooting tips they are working very well.

Simple Setup - Easy Maintenance

Reviewed 2 years ago

This is a perfect solution for mid sized church! We can custom tailor greetings for various monitors around campus and control them all easily from one spot. I do not need to spend hours training my communications director who designs our content how to apply it, the user interface is fantastic.

Pros

The user interface is very intuitive. It was not hard to setup, to get linked to Amazon Fire Stick and have my monitor displaying content in minutes. The ability to schedule playlists for different time periods means no one has to touch anything, just make sure the monitor is on. I love it!

Cons

It would be nice to be able to stream from a subscribed music player account. SO background music could also run (in our lobby) with no ads. Also when a specific Optisigns API is added to a playlist, the transition during playback is not as smooth as I would like. It "jumps" when it goes to the app as opposed as a smooth transition as is between static slides.

This is probably the solution you are looking for

Reviewed 2 years ago

The experience has been awesome, it literally just did everything we were looking for in a solution for digital signage.

Pros

Ease of use, hardware platform independence, broad but intuitive feature set and very well reasonably priced.

Cons

No real cons honestly, one could always wish for more apps/app-integrations, but it seems like they are continually adding more, so can barely complain about that.

Deployment is a Joy and Content Creation is Easy

Reviewed 2 years ago

We were looking for a digital signage solution that was easy to deploy aka doesn't need an I.T. professional and something where content creation is built into the program.

Pros

One of the things I've been looking for in a digital signage software is something that is easy to deploy and puts content creation at the top of the functionality. I found both with OptiSigns. It was as easy as setting up an Amazon Fire Stick and then we were off to the races. Creating content is a breeze because they have a bunch of beautiful and professional templates to build off of. Very happy with this product.

Cons

My only issue with it and this is more of an issue with Amazon Fire Stick is that you have to have an individual remote for every stick and can't use the same remote on all of the devices.

Cheaper than competitors with same functionality

Reviewed 2 years ago

In the short time we have had the system, we see the benefits of having more functionality and more custom options when it comes to the apps. If you want more customisable options for utilising apps such as google calendar, this is the system for you.

Pros

It has a really great user interface and is easy to set up. Comparing to another product we have used for years, it has the same functionality and is just as good if not better, but is cheaper. Certainly recommend.

Cons

The intuitiveness and design of the backend is not as good as other competitors but if certainly not lacking in functionality.

OptiSigns Review

Reviewed 2 years ago
Pros

This product is pretty easy to use! This is the first time I'm using digital signage and I understood this perfectly. It is also cheaper than anything I really saw out there! The hardware is a easy setup and cost efficient as well!

Cons

I think that it is a little bit dates. When I was looking through other sites there digital signage was so easy to use because it was up to date and anyone could use it! This one is very easy it just seems like it needs an update.

Easy to use, support is top notch

Reviewed 3 years ago

Overall, from the initial onboarding process to tech support, they've been wonderful to work with. We have deployed over 60 devices across the country with ease.

Pros

Managing multiple screens from across the country has been the best part about OptiSigns. I can verify that the monitor is running and that it has the content displayed that I need.

Cons

Some of the Social Media integrations could be better. The overall offerings are limited.

Our patients notice Optisigns!

Reviewed a year ago

The company was excellent about helping me walk through the product initially so that when we went to customize it we were able to move around quickly.

Pros

Our patients notice the Optisigns content and ask questions about what is offered which leads to increased sales for us!

Cons

It took a little bit to play with the software because there are SO many options. Ultimately this is a good thing, but there was so much to view at first that it took some time for me to get it *just right*

Optisigns is the best

Reviewed a year ago

I have been using Yodeck on my entertainment players for nearly two years, was not happy with customer service. While searching for an alternative, I found Optisigns and signed for free trial. Optisigns hands down is much easier to do everything that Yodeck can do, the ease of use saves me time. I am moving all of my players over to Optisigns.

Pros

Optisigns is extremely easy to install and simple to manage. It does exactly what I need it to do, which is play ads and video content reliably for 16 hours a day.

Cons

I have yet to discover any dislikes with Optisigns

Perfect fit for the info screen in our club house

Reviewed a year ago

We use OptiSigns to show the latest weather forecast, court bookings, upcoming events, advertisements from regional businesses and pictures from the last events in our club house. At the latest tournament we've also tried out the Excel Online app and were able to show a live match schedule and standings.

Pros

OptiSigns basically offers all feature we need for our info screen in the club house, e.g. cloud management, playlists, schedules, Office 365 integration, and many more at a reasonable pricing. What I currently like the most is the ability to created nested playlists. That's an huge advantage when it comes to organizing the different playlists and content types. The online designer is a very nice feature for quickly creating new content.

Cons

Although there are some minor, non-critical bugs the service is pretty easy to use. What I'm missing a bit is a picture gallery app which automatically arranges and shuffles a set of pictures (e.g. on OneDrive, Google Drive).

Easy to Use and runs while disconnected from the server

Reviewed 2 years ago

Need to highlight current products available at the club. Screens are under utilized today. The Optisigns team helped me get the screens to best possible usage in a short period of time. Quick response to questiosns.

Pros

Ease to understand and implement for our requirements. It will continue to run independent of the server so a full time connection is not mandatory.

Cons

Support for the RTSP protocol would be outstanding. RTSP is the most used streaming protocol, so instant update to digital sign would be possible. Live feed to screen is the optimum signage.

An inexpensive, but powerful remote sign application

Reviewed a year ago
Pros

I was looking for an easy to use digital signage application that integrated with my Amazon Fire TV in my fitness studio. I came across OptiSigns and it provides exactly what I'm looking for at a fraction of the cost of similar offerings.

Cons

Honestly, there isn't anything I find wrong with the software or layout. If I had to nit pick anything, it would be the heavy use of "Open in new tab" that is coded into the website when I'd prefer to just open in the same window. That's a minor inconvenience and honestly not really a "con".

Great product

Reviewed 4 months ago

Is fluid and very friendly. It takes a while to get familiar with the menus, but I think it works great. I love that the interface is clean, fast, and very clear.

Pros

Is awesome that you have AI Tools, and Analytic, Data, etc.! this make like all in one management, and is a great added value for marketers and advertisers to measure the impacts and to display different ads for specific targets and audiences. This gives you te best advantage.

Cons

Images do not adjust to full size screen some times.The iFrame doesn't work properly (I try with postermywall), I think that is something vital. It would be great to have more apps for sports, like games calendar, scores, etc. YouTube videos can not mute? sound is something not clear for me.

Easy to Deploy, Easy to maintain - I can finally delegate this!

Reviewed 9 months ago
Pros

I have used remote-managed digital signage in our multiple locations for years, but only realized what I was missing after I began to implement OptiSigns across our organization. I can finally now delegate updates and campaigns to staff with confidence due to the easy to use interface and powerful designer.

Cons

Was excited to see that our Roku-onboard TVs would support Optisigns, but bummed when I found out 75% of our content wasn't compatible. So we moved to fire sticks.

Very Easy To Use Across Multiple Locations

Reviewed 2 years ago
Pros

Love the variety of apps available to customize slides and then create a schedule. We have screens up across multiple locations so the fact that it runs on FireTV makes it very easy to update screens from our office without travel to each screen.

Cons

The ability to chose a time range on FB posts would be nice, our screen is currently rolling through some pretty old content.

Vendor response

Hi Zach, thank you for your kind review. Regard FB post time range, yes it is supported, in your FB asset, just click Advanced, you can select last XX days or last XX posts.

Displays Beautifully/ Upgrades Needed

Reviewed 2 years ago

I enjoyed the free trial and will be looking for updates on the options features in the mo ths to come!

Pros

The way this software connects easily to display devices is one of my favorite features. I also feel the display layouts are aesthtically pleasing and clearly define the actions I need.

Cons

I am hopeful in time the software will simplify the information entry options. I feel I have sampled other platforms with more streamlined and user friendly ways to design.

Love this product!

Reviewed 2 years ago

So far my experience with OptiSigns has been very positive. We are using this product in the main lobby of our office to educate visiting customers, showcase our work, and recognize employees. Given the ease of using the product, I foresee us considering adding other screens and utilizing it in other ways we hadn't considered when starting this project.

Pros

Remote access was a critical feature we needed when searching for a digital signage product. I am a remote team member so having remote access to manage the screens was key. OptiSigns has made this process very easy. I was able to jump right in and begin adding material, make changes, and see the updates in real time. It has also allowed other team members who are in the office to view and suggest changes. Prior to finding OptiSigns implementing this process was painfully slow.

Cons

I am only a few days into trying out the product. At this time, all the features have been easy to use. There have even been extras, like the apps for weather and sports that were a nice surprise to have at our fingertips!

Great Tool for Churches / Non-Profit Organizations!

Reviewed a year ago

Our church and school was looking to update the signs we use to make announcements. We wanted to change from bulletin boards from plain and stagnant (and hardly ever up-to-date) into something that was more appealing to our guests. We looked into several programs but the one that stuck out in reviews across the board was OptiSigns so we looked into it and were sold. From the moment of our initial conversations, to purchasing the equipment, to installment and set up of the program, the process was relatively simple. Customer service was excellent. Agents were available to help us via Google Chat and were instrumental in making sure we were set up properly. We are very pleased with the final product now and are eager to learn even more going forward.

Pros

The OptiSigns online app is easy to use. The website is simple and intuitive for most users. You don't need too much prior knowledge about digital signage to operate. Updating our signs is quick and easy.

Cons

Initially trying to find the hardware that was necessary for our operations was confusing but with guidance from OptiSigns' customer service, we were able to settle everything!

Great Alternative to YoDeck

Reviewed 2 years ago

We are using Optisigns across our showroom to display Instagram feed, video, photos, and other content. Great experience and price point!

Pros

Very clean user interface. The setup was fairly easy with cool features included to ramp up our digital signage.

Cons

Some of the built-in features that pull live data (IG Instagram) are a little laggy and skip sometimes - but I probably only notice because I'm staring at them constantly!

Great option in combination with a Firestick 4k

Reviewed 2 months ago
Pros

The intergration of PowerBI was a must for this digital signage project. In combination with the Firestick 4k did the PowerBI reports load in a matter of seconds. It was tested against the Firestick Lite but that hardware couldn't load the reports within 10 seconds. Overall great apps and customizability!

Cons

It isn't possible to accept cookies inside of the website app. To solve this we needed to use Iframes in the embedded app, this took quite some work.
