Pricing is the most significant difference between Chrome Sign Builder and these products. You can expect to pay a huge amount more for any other commercial product, but they come with more features and are targeted for bigger deployments. However, we found that with Chrome …

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.

Setting up in a building where you need TV signage with dynamic content that is simple to modify. Telemetry would be good for this because it is all centrally cloud-managed allowing for quick and easy changes. Telemetry TV can be set up with any TV and Chromebox device which allows for ease of setup as well.

Pros
Google
  • 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.

Cons
Google
  • 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

  • There is nothing I think they need improvement on at the moment.
  • When I have made suggestions they have altered the item so align with my idea.

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.

Each time I have called with a problem, I have gotten a prompt and courteous reply. And, my problem is always solved and followed up on. I honestly don't get this type of response from any other support group I am involved with. Thanks so much for such an outstanding staff.

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.

Mvix and HyperSign... Mvix was modular add-on signage. License heavy. HyperSign didn't work for us seeing that the customization was not there.

Return on Investment
Google
  • 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

  • Adding info to the screens is simple and quick. Our previous system was more time consuming. We are able to post important information in real time.
  • Because more than one user can access the screens, the work load can be distributed.
