Yodeck

Avantages

Simple layouts creations, good templates. Understandable schedules.

Inconvénients

Missing grid lines on layouts creation, missing multiple selection on layouts editing

Avantages

I like that the software is fairly easy to use and setup.

Inconvénients

Not enough widgets and wished it supported multiple video playback and not just one. Not a fan of the forced updates, especially when they create connection issues for previously working widgets.

Avantages

the ease of use and straightforward GUI.

Inconvénients

the scheduling can be easier. it's hard to navigate

Avantages

Easy to use. Customizable. Great Support

Inconvénients

It isn't free. Remote player support for guaranteed viewing of what is happening on the remote device

Avantages

Software works. It works as it should all the time

Inconvénients

Can be a real pain if something goes wrong. I downsized a few monitors because of the hassle

Avantages

A great product, that was easy to integrate with our other branding material.

Inconvénients

I have yet to find an issue with Yodeck's software

Avantages

Its ergonomic and simple to install and use

Inconvénients

We can't manage users and their rights (ex : assign an editor role to a co-user with specific settings like not being able to see billing information for example, while admins do)

Avantages

The ability to use any TV/ Monitor no custom hardware needed

Inconvénients

At this point I dont have any cons, it does everything I need and more.

Avantages

Ive tried so many other programs. This by far is the easiest. I can change everything remotely. All you need is a little knowledge of .jpg and video.

Inconvénients

Learning curve, but simple once you get it.

Avantages

If you are searching for a tool to manage content on a remote display - this is the app you need.

Inconvénients

I didn't find something to dislike. Maybe it is not so intuitive and simple to configure. I would like to have something like "quick online" setup.

Avantages

Ease of use and setup. I used my raspberry pi to setup yodeck.

Inconvénients

the loading of slides does take time and sometime have reboot the raspberry pi couple of times.

Avantages

East of setup. It was very easy to get it on our network.

Inconvénients

Device storage is limited. Storage on the device is relatively small.

Avantages

Once we knew we wanted a 'welcome' screen, attention-getter and a brand presence in the foyer, Yodeck was a no-brainer. It runs on a Raspberry Pi, which is very easy to deploy.

Inconvénients

It's a little quirky but it does the job.

Avantages

The price and ease of use made the product a no brainer.

Inconvénients

It would be nice to know about the Youtube tutorials sooner in the design process.

Avantages

I love the updated look of the software. Easier to navigate and looks much cleaner. I love all of the customization features for timing posts etc.

Inconvénients

So far there hasn't been anything that I have felt that I needed that wasn't provided.

Avantages

Clear design, works out of the box, never breaks down. Image transition rocks.

Inconvénients

Improve statistics overview by giving good graphical representations (April 2019).

Avantages

I liked that I was able to easily purchase the devices I needed, and the subscription, without jumping through tons of hoops like you normally have to with other enterprise solutions.The web app is easy to use although I wish there were more advanced features (like moving elements off the canvas, quick alignment tools, etc.)

Inconvénients

There are some small quirks that seem like they will be fixed in the near future, so I can't really complain about anything.

Avantages

Setup and Updating Easy, Support Excellent....The system just works!

Inconvénients

Font Selection Limited, an option to install custom fonts would be great.

Avantages

A user who knows little about this type of interface can make a basic start very quickly. It's very simple .

Inconvénients

The templates offered are small. They need to be expanded and increased in number in order to expand the horizons where all this can be integrated.
Need more widgets

Avantages

Very easy to install and run, other products are complicated
especially for raspberry or other linux products.

Inconvénients

need more widgets for ejm. Facebook widget.

Avantages

The thing that drew me towards Yodeck was the way they handled hardware but the simplicity and quick no nonsense administration of screens is what kept it a competitor when we were comparing services.

Inconvénients

Lack of smooth transitions but I hear this is being worked on and a fix is on the way.

Because it is so highly customizable it can take a bit to wrap your head around it. Nothing I would change though if it would mean customization is suffering from of it.

Have not come across anything yet, but will continue to update!

Connect yodeck to a cloud or microsoft 365 account would be nice, so players could download weekly schedules itself.

Avantages

Easy to setup into raspberry! Just download the image, flash it and go!

Inconvénients

It will be much better when more languages are added

Avantages

Der Einrichtungsprozess war extrem einfach. Besonders gut ist der WYSIWYG-Editor zur Gestaltung der Anzeige. Sehr hilfreich ist auch der Zeitplan, der es ermöglicht die Anzeigetafel außerhalb der Bürozeiten auszuschalten.

Inconvénients

Mit der Einbindung von hochauflösenden Videos gab es einige Probleme sodass schlussendlich Videos komprimiert werden mussten um Abstürze und ruckelnde Bilder zu vermeiden.

Avantages

Uso para TV Corporativa na empresa e funciona muito bem

Inconvénients

Suporte infelizmente é bem ruim, abri um chamado e não tive retorno

Avantages

How easy it is to upload and how easy it is to maneuver through

utilizing yodeck coding syntax felt hit or miss.

Avantages

Simple configuration of playlists and schedules

Inconvénients

web based, would like to have a application

Avantages

Very easy to use and create exceptional digital signage

Inconvénients

Seems like there are extra steps with layout, playlist, schedules etc. It could be more streamlined

Avantages

I liked that I could try it for free and use it without feeling like a time trial was needed. Since then I have got 3 paying customers since I vouche very highly for the product

Inconvénients

Trying to get the tickers or weather panel to work correctly. Maybe since I tried its been updated

Avantages

Very easy to use for those who have not set up a Message Board in the past.

Inconvénients

Updating Software, one update took about 2 hours one day

Avantages

Die Einfachheit wie alles abläuft, vom Anmelden bis zu der Versendung des Players. verständliches Backend.

Inconvénients

Man muss erst blicken wie das mit den Playlisten und dann mit der Zeitleise funktioniert. Die Mail-Adresse steht Yodeck dran und nicht meine Mail Adresse. Da ich dies in Zukunft für meine Kunden mehr machen möchte, ist dies natürlich nicht so gut.

Avantages

Everything about this software is simple to use

Inconvénients

Length of time for long files to upload to players

Avantages

We love the inexpensive resource which we can grow with, and can change content online (don't need to plug the player into a computer; in mot of our set-ups, the players can be reached by WiFi).

Inconvénients

There are some features we could really use (we should be using!) in the Enterprise only option. As a VERY small non-profit community media organization, we service multiple school sites for which we should be able to give more customized access to individual users, and content managers. It appears this is an option for the Enterprise level, which there is no way my board of directors would approve us spending that kind of money. That is honestly the only thing we can find to "like the least"!

Avantages

Ease of use, configurable, feels solid/stable.

Inconvénients

I haven't found any yet. I don't know if I saw an option to automatically/remotely update the software on the Yodeck player but it may just be that I haven't noticed it yet.

Avantages

Ease to operate, flexible options, user friendly interface

Inconvénients

More integrations with content providers - like airport and train schedules

Avantages

Ease of use, and designing stuff is easy

Inconvénients

Bit hard to schedule stuff but not too difficult

Avantages

Easy to use, easy deployment and functional

Inconvénients

I did not like giving out my WiFi credentials

Avantages

The software is easy to use and I like that you can update the players from anywhere with internet.

Inconvénients

I had some trouble uploading a video, but I'm not sure if this is actually YoDeck's fault.

Avantages

Ability to add other users using their email

Inconvénients

A little bit of a learning curve to learn to use
