Pourquoi passer à Yodeck

I chose Yodeck because it offers great value for the price. Compared to other alternatives, Yodeck provides a cost-effective solution without compromising on features or reliability. The affordability, combined with its ease of use and solid performance, made it the best choice for our needs.

Avantages

The ease of setup and management make this product a no brainer! The single free screen is a great option for testing the waters of the platform or even running for a small business or non-profit location!

Inconvénients

Being to change the view of the playlist layout would be helpful for arranging larger playlists. Otherwise, it's hard to find anything wrong with this software!

Pourquoi passer à Yodeck

Yodeck actually worked! after all the failures we tried we wern't expecting much, Boy, wewe we suprised, It still is in all our offices

Avantages

Global aware front to back makes managing simple and anxiety free. Local time, local events and calendar but manageable centrally with the same useable content is unique and simple.

Inconvénients

Less an issue with Yodeck, but if the TV/display has been locally turned off or changed to different input, the dashboard is not aware and will report what the player is playing even though it is not visible on the display. Only way around that is to also control the display with RS232 which tends to be more expensive solution.

Pourquoi choisir Yodeck 

Started with Magic Info that was Clunky and limited management VXT was better but for the price of the investment, not featured enough at the time.

Pourquoi passer à Yodeck

Easy start, cheap and simple, but not developed enough once you actually begin to plan your messaging objectives internally and externally.

Avantages

Easy to use and great selection of apps available, reasonable pricing.

Inconvénients

Some aspects of the layout design feature could be a bit more expanded. Why am I not able to underline text without having to add a shape?

Avantages

What I liked most about Yodeck is its user-friendly interface and flexibility for managing digital signage remotely. The platform allows for easy scheduling and customization of content across multiple screens, which is great for organizations looking to manage displays across different locations. Additionally, the ability to upload a variety of media formats and the option for real-time updates make it efficient for businesses that need to make quick changes to their signage.

Inconvénients

The main drawback I found with Yodeck is its occasional limitations when it comes to advanced design capabilities. While it handles basic digital signage well, more complex layouts or highly customized designs might require extra work or even third-party tools. Additionally, depending on the internet connection, the performance could slow down, especially when managing a large number of screens.

Avantages

I liked Yodeck's user-friendly interface, remote management capabilities, and reliable performance, making it easy to manage digital signage effectively.

Inconvénients

What I liked least about Yodeck was the occasional limitations in customization options for more complex layouts.

Avantages

I love being able to access and manage our digital signage content remotely. I oversee two separate locations for our business and it's so nice to be able to change content on the fly without having to physically go to each and plug in a USB flash drive the old fashioned way. I also really like the layouts feature and being able to have widgets like a clock, weather forecast, and more fixed on the screen while my main content loops.

Inconvénients

So far there's not too much to not like. I will say I have run into a couple issues with certain apps that integrate with Yodeck. For example, the Google slides app was not cooperating for some reason. I feel like the news apps having a smaller ticker bar format option would be cool... but these are minor.

Pourquoi passer à Yodeck

Yodeck just seemed to check the boxes for me. It appeared to be intuitive, customizable to the level I was looking for, and the price was right. Others just didn't measure up.

Avantages

The setup process to get my pi running was very easy and quick.
The dashboard is easy and intuitive to use. Once set up it has been running absolutely reliably and stable. Maintenance of the raspberry pis is practically zero.
Yodeck supports a wide range of media including the display of websites which was one of my most important requirements in our SOC to display PRTG maps of our monitored IT infrastructure.
The central administration with the possibility to add users based on a role concept with groups and assigned workspaces with screens was also a key requirement.

Inconvénients

I have nothing to criticize. The only thing to get used to was the

Pourquoi choisir Yodeck 

Screenly is more expensive for the features we need and the setup process was in my experience not as easy as Yodeck.

Screenly

Pourquoi passer à Yodeck

Anthias, the Open Source Version of Screenly requires vastly more system maintenance. We need an enterprise solution with close to zero maintenance.

Avantages

Easy for regular users to update content, SSO integration, ability to upload HTML files for custom apps, doesn't need 24/7 network connection, free web player option, works on existing hardware, paid subscription comes with a free raspberry pi that can be preconfigured with network info & default content

Inconvénients

Nothing so far, it's just been doing what I tell it to do

Avantages

I love the ease of access, ability to add multiple media types, customization within the program, and this has allowed our network of schools to streamline how we populate digital signage and still allows us to use it on the various monitors/tvs we have between campuses.

Inconvénients

I would like the ability to add a custom font. We are big on branding and have specific font we use. I was able to locate one that is similar, however, when it is bolded you can spot the difference.

Avantages

YoDeck is both affordable and easy to use. setting up additional uses and limiting their access is easy. I have delegated the content of most screens to the office staff and they love it. A plus, is by making it easy to update, we are much more likely to have current and relevant information on the screens. Additionally, we build custom webpages - only hosted internally, but YoDeck has no problems accessing them.

Inconvénients

I find it can be a little finicky about updating when it only has a single slide. It seems to just cache the page and not refresh with new data. An easy fix is simply to have a placeholder slide (sometimes we use the weather app) and cycle between the two.

Avantages

Yodeck is incredibly easy to use and implement. Whether you bring your own or purchase one of their RPi devices, managing multiple digital signage devices is very easy. The dashboard allows you to manage the media being presented in a sleek and easily maneuverable dashboard.

Inconvénients

It's unfortunate that some apps are only compatible with their own devices, I'm not sure I quite understand why, but that is a downside that let to me not being able to test one of our app integrations until we purchased one of their players.

ScreenCloud

Pourquoi passer à Yodeck

Yodeck's ease of implementation was what drew me in. Many of the other alternatives took too long to get set up. Yodeck allows you to use their product completely free if you want and setting up your first player is only a matter of minutes.

Avantages

Yodeck provides an intuitive and user-friendly interface that simplifies the process of managing digital signage. The ease of use is remarkable, allowing even those with minimal technical knowledge to set up and operate the system efficiently. Additionally, the robust feature set, including remote management and a wide array of templates, enhances the versatility and effectiveness of our digital displays. The customer support is also outstanding, with prompt and knowledgeable responses that ensure any issues are resolved quickly.

Inconvénients

While Yodeck is a powerful tool, there are occasional glitches in the software that can disrupt the display schedules. These instances are rare but can be inconvenient when they occur. Additionally, the initial setup process, while generally straightforward, can sometimes be challenging due to limited documentation on more advanced features. Improvements in these areas would further elevate the overall user experience.

Avantages

Yodeck is an essential tool projecting our healthcare organization's cutlure to the audience that matter the most- caregivers. Yodeck is the answer to two important questions: "How do we project our culture to persons who visit our care center?" and "how do we project Palm Garden culture to our caregivers?" I'm able to project Palm Garden Mission, Vision and Values in our own cultural voice and "premier provider" 5-Star brand.

Inconvénients

There was a learning curve because we switched from an outsourced provider for digital prodction to internal production of content. Yodeck YouTube videos helpedme a lot!

Siento que son pocas las desventajas que pueda encontrarle:

* Agregar mas funciones a la parte de programas o integraciones.

Avantages

Yodeck is super simple to setup and manage. Adding other users to help push out new playlists is also very easy and helpful. If a player goes offline for any reason a notification is sent to my email letting me know the status. The platform is very stable and everything is managed over a Wi-Fi connection.

Inconvénients

Honestly cannot think of a single thing to dislike!

Pourquoi passer à Yodeck

Seemed like a better fit for our company and we liked the simple design and ease of management.

Avantages

It's easy of use and integration with multiple services seamlessly. I was able to integrate 7 different google calendars, and it shows them all in one feed.

Its scheduling function also allows me to schedule a live video from youtube to play and it has no lag or issue playing it.

Inconvénients

While it's drag and drop builder is great and better than most I have tried, for the most part it does require you to upload your own graphics instead of being able to build them in the drag and drop builder.
