If you have digital signage to manage and need your content to be updated quickly and safely then ScreenCloud is the service to go for.

We used ScreenCloud to run dedicated content across four single screens around the stand that would focus on the key application segments for the products. These were office, retail, logistics & industry and smart outdoor lighting within residential, consumer & hospitality. Each screen ran a dedicated playlist to each application segment with a mix of images and videos. Everything was loaded online through ScreenCloud and the screens were scheduled for the days of the show.

I think the most popular screens that we have are the ones above the kettle. People are stood there waiting and they're hanging around for a couple of minutes - having the screen right there engages people. They’ll say "oh look there’s you, I didn’t know you were doing that.

As someone who has a background of working as CTO in a digital signage startup, I have extensive knowledge of digital signage software and the pros and cons of different systems within the industry. When I joined Merchant Taylors’ eight years ago I started looking at digital signage solutions that were suitable for schools and also cost effective. We experimented with many solutions but they were too costly especially from the player point of view and licensing costs. That's why when I stumbled across ScreenCloud I was so pleased as their solution was very easy to use and cost effective - even before the educational discount that they offer to schools - and their support is fantastic. Rather than expensive players and housing costs, our costs were the screens with Android player built in, or a screen we already had plus a tiny, cheap Amazon Fire TV Stick.

The reason we chose ScreenCloud was the simplicity. Most signage applications are too complicated for daily use and too complex with a steep learning curve. Before ScreenCloud we were stuck in a workflow that was based on DVD-loops. Every other month a slideshow of our programme was burned onto DVD’s - making them out of date from day two and they were a pain to create. Creating a new infoloop for a certain event meant an afternoon of waiting and rendering video. The new signage solution being webbased was never a priority but is certainly a plus. The ability to make a new slide and drop it into a playlist or change a schedule from wherever you are is great. Using ScreenCloud also means that when we move a screen into another room it basically just needs to be plugged in again for it to work.

Yes. It is very easy to use and displays images and information in a visually appealing, eye-catching way. It is great to be able to use ScreenCloud to display images on big screens that act as posters for upcoming events and sermon series information. We really like it!

With school budgets, it's very difficult to find a good, easy solution that's flexible and cheap enough to use. Until we found ScreenCloud we couldn't adopt digital signage.
