    TelemetryOS is a vertically integrated platform for digital signage, interactive kiosks, and screen applications. It combines purpose-built Node hardware, a hardened Linux edge operating system, a cloud management console, an integrated video CDN, and an application runtime, so organizations manage content, devices, and custom apps in one system instead of stitching vendors together. Content and scheduling: Teams build playlists, set dayparting and…

    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.

    Xinet is great for print marketing users that have a lot of copy in their artwork. Xinet is not especially useful for 3D artwork production.

    • Tracking rights-managed assets. Xinet provides advanced features such as watermarking and expiration notifications.
    • Integration with Adobe. Xinet can be configured to access assets from right within the apps.
    • Desktop integration. Xinet can be accessed by the browser but also as a mountable server volume on the desktop. Unlike Box, Dropbox, etc., the mounted volume does not require consumption of hard drive space.

    Cons
    TelemetryOS
    • 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.

    • For my position, I didn't learn enough of Xinet to truly utilize the whole program, only one or two people in my department understood it inside and out.
    • During my time at the agency, we were unable to get the annotations to work on assets. And that would have been helpful to have to streamline our process of asset quality control.

    Xinet is intuitive to use. It is perhaps the only DAM that features a traditional mounted volume, so anyone working in an environment with local servers will love it. Search is accurate and faceted searches allow users to narrow search results. Setup requires a lot of training if you want to leverage all of its complex workflow capabilities.

    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.

    Support is handled by third-party server integrators. Our partner, NAPC, has always been there when we've needed them and also develops unique plugins to expand XInet's capabilities.

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

    We selected Xinet based on having a large number of potential users and wanted unlimited web seats. Paying a one time software fee versus a monthly seat payment was a big draw. Telescope was four to five times more expensive and was not feasible at the time. We liked Basecamp but we needed a local solution for storage, not hosted.

    Xinet is a great platform to build off of. We use it in combination with Enfocus Switch which has greatly improved the automation capabilities and we use Xinet as the portal for external users. Our internal users very rarely interact with the Xinet GUI.

    TelemetryOS
    • 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.
