What Is Cloud-Based Digital Signage?
Let’s break this down. First, digital signage is a display, either an LED panel or LCD monitor, that vividly displays information or media. This could be anything: scrolling news and text, slideshows, HD videos, live weather reports, menus, maps, directions, or even social media posts. The possibilities are endless!
So, what does cloud-based mean? The cloud is a network of external servers that host data for you. With cloud-based digital signage, you pay a provider to host your signage information for you. So, with a few clicks on your computer, you can wirelessly update your signage across multiple displays, rooms, buildings, and even cities, no matter where you are!
How Does It Work?
To get started, all you need is to plug displays into a digital signage player, just like you would connect a TV to a Roku stick. From there, you’ll sign into your cloud platform online. On the dashboard, you can manage content and control digital signage in real-time. Let’s say you want to upload videos to display in your store. You’d simply upload the files and send them out to the appropriate screens.
What Are the Benefits?
Cloud-based signage is incredibly easy to use. With just a few clicks on a computer, the owner of a café chain could update the menus for all their locations. Before cloud-based software, you’d have to plug a USB into every single screen and edit the signage individually.
Plus, cloud-based signage requires much less maintenance. Since you’re hiring a service to host the cloud for you, you don’t need to maintain servers in-house. That would require a costly IT department to manage if anything breaks down. You won’t need to buy servers, fans, and racks – it’s all handled by your cloud provider.
Any business that requires many displays in several locations would greatly benefit from a cloud-based system. It will save you precious time and resources – and from technical difficulties.
