Pros

“It offers reliable performance and provides useful scheduling features that help organize content efficiently. While there are some limitations in terms of advanced customization and media management, it still delivers a solid and dependable solution for digital signage needs.”
DP

Dragan P.

IT Manager

“There is very little to complain about with Play Digital Signage. If I had to mention one area for improvement, it would be the ability to push updates to a screen even when it is powered off, so that the latest content is ready immediately when the screen is turned back on”

Albane L.

Food and beverage coordinator

“It supports a wide variety of hardware and operating systems, which makes deployment seamless. Once everything is set up, the screens run flawlessly without crashes or synchronization issues, giving us great peace of mind.”

Cons

“I feel like the web portal is pretty complicated for beginners it's more for the intermediate, I didn't like the fact that each player could only display on one TV I feel like for the price that you're paying per player you would think that you could display on multiple, the monthly subscription fees really add up when you need multiple players, I also didn't like that in the system technically the company owns the players even though you purchase them out”

Maintenance/ consoltant

“Customer service was the main reason I didn’t return this.”

Owner

Cons

“Trial messaging overlays or strict playlist duration limits can suddenly pop up and disrupt the professionalism of your screens until you upgrade.”
ML

Marco L.

Engineer

“Theres a big rectangle marked with a reminder that youre using a trial version, which makes it a bit harder to see the finished product on your screen.”
MB

“One downside of Play Digital Signage is that some of the limitations around the free plan are not very clear at first, which can be a bit frustrating when you start using it.”
