Chrome Sign Builder vs. PosterBooking

Chrome Sign Builder seems to work best when only one or two resources are displayed. Rotating through multiple screens in slideshow format without a ready ability to advance and pause causes some problems. When scheduling five outdoor ranges and a clubhouse, individuals have to stand and watch as sometimes complex calendars scroll by focusing on specific data and time. On the other hand, when limited to one or two rouses, the system works well enough.

I feel trade shows and conferences are perfect for this solution. Having this just to decorate your office is obviously a benefit as well. However, I believe the greatest value in this tool is using it for client/prospect meetings/events. I feel we can really garner their attention with subliminal messaging and showing value propositions that would be specific to that group or person.

• schedule YouTube videos and playlists
• Use Chrome Sign Builder to display menus. For example, to show menus for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, create 3 schedules. Each schedule has its own menu URL to display the menu content.
• create a presentation using Google Slides and display it using Chrome Sign Builder.
• When you publish the presentation, set it to start as soon as it loads and restart again after the last slide.

• Would be good if there was a way if it could update live rather than needing to export the JSON file and upload it to the management console manually
• Could be more visual based to make more complicated layouts easier rather than needing to use percentages.
• Dated design compared to Google's latest UI upgrade

It is easy to enroll displays into your account. After that, all of your content is centrally managed in a browser. Unlike some other services on the market, you don't need to deploy any servers or services on your local network. If you are using the Amazon Firestick implementation option, it automatically boots into that even after power-loss, meaning there's little to worry about once it has been set up, and could be managed from anywhere.

Support can be sparse, lengthy wait times, and sometimes not the most helpful solutions. If you really need assistance using it - contacting your VAR is a better bet than using Chrome Sign Builder support. We have also had frustrating cases where support will close tickets without a solution.

Chrome Sign Builder is very strong and flexible on manipulation and the quality of signs management is an effective and an excellent forms management system which is very easy on deployment and management of all our project documents. The easy-on reports building through Chrome Sign Builder is also another big point and the dashboard is very easy to adapt.

The free version of PosterBooking was more than enough for our organization. Other software looked at we would have needed to pay for.

• As this is a free tool we save money on purchasing an alternative solution
• Displaying pertinent signage through the building streamlines operations and provides the right data to those who need it
• May not be as approachable to a new user, but someone with technical experience should have no issues getting started quickly with the tool

Incentivized

• We really did not get the ROI that we COULD have in my opinion. - Didn't use it optimally
• The technical issues really made us wary of even using it sometimes.
• I feel this organization has great potential in this product. Just needs to be finetuned,
