It is free, but it has minimal features. There is no way to configure the transition time to be the same on all slides, so it takes forever for a 50-slide presentation, where some slides require 7 seconds, and others need only 2-3.

Chrome Sign Builder is excellent for communicating up-to-date information to customers. In our retail setting, it can be used for featuring specific products, displaying our events calendar, or looping relevant content on devices throughout the store. It would also be excellent for a restaurant to use for menus. The downside is that it is utilized through a browser extension and requires an internet connection to implement and make updates on Chrome only devices.

Google Chrome Sign Builder is ideal in a limited scope, such as an office building with five to ten screens to display signage on and manage. This was the specific use case I used the tool for and I had good success. But I can see at higher device counts, that require more varied signage, other tools may be more efficient. It is also ideal if you already have the sign content and mainly need to setup the scheduling.

Chrome Sign Builder is a powerful content scheduler that schedules web content including google slide presentations to be shown on Chrome OS devices. It is a reliable tool that can be easily managed and it is also free. It is not perfect for a lot of digital signage requirements since it has few capabilities.

Chrome Sign Builder's capability on signs management and ease to preview multiple documents and files is incredible and the speed of the features is very profitable. The platform offers the best data analytics features and reporting functionalities which allows easy creation of reports from different events and projects. The ability to manage forms and files arrangement through the software is excellent.

It's Free and accessible and easy to manage, especially for a beginner. Very helpful for me to set calendar invites and meetings, especially at this time mostly using virtual meetings. And maybe it will be more helpful if it has a feature that has a one-pager that can see or access all views at a time, it is useful for multitasking times.

It was well suited for us as we were easily able to upload our marketing material
and make the changes to use the sign in the appropriate way. It may be less appropriate if you do not have this readily available and would need to build from scratch in the app

The Google Chrome Sign Builder is perfectly suited for displaying web information throughout your network of managed Chrome devices, including Google Presentations, which anyone with access to that presentation may or can change anything to it, restaurant menus, photos, and YouTube movies and playlists and so on can be put or included in the content that you scheduled to display.

This app has been serving us well as signage for about 10 TVs in our district, but since OS 69 was released, it has had issues with freezing and locking up. We are running this on Chrome Bits attached directly to the TVs. We had zero issues before they updated to Chrome OS 69.

If digital signage needs are simple, then Chrome Sign Builder is reliable and easy to use. It is best used as a content scheduler. It is a versatile tool that is easy to manage. If you have any gaps in content scheduling, the audience will see “no content scheduled”. Otherwise, It is affordable, reliable & versatile.

I am a very big fan of the entire Google Chrome ecosystem, but this app let me down. I thought it would be easy to deploy but I couldn't get it going. I think I'm missing something., but not sure what. I hope there is some sort of tech support or guide to help a user get started easier.

Whether or not this is a good solution depends highly upon your use case. If you have a sign that is nearby and easily monitored visually because it's in a place where the business can see it, that's great no issues. However, if the sign is off-site, it may not be a good option because there's no way to monitor for uptime. One thing that the software does exceedingly well is scheduling various content to be displayed at different times.

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.

It was well suited for signage close by. We did notice that there were more issues with remote signage since there is no monitoring tool. It also seems to not be created to handle kiosk mode which is what we run most of our business applications on, so this was a bit of an issue. It seems like a good starter program, but there are better ones out there.

Chrome Sign Builder is free, which is great but also limited in functionality. It works well for simple digital signs, and this is what I primarily use it for at my organization. Google has not done much to maintain the software, so there are some bugs to work through. However, this seems to be the case with just about any software we use. I like that the content can be easily edited by everyone with access to the digital sign. Overall, Google could do better.

Based on my experience Chrome Sign Builder has helped in drafting the marketing packages based on the relevant searches. This is a software that works like macros of Excel which will by default store similar data or matched data as per the previous history and reflects the necessary plus additional information to the user.

If you are looking for an inexpensive, set-and-forget digital signage solution and your content isn't customized often, Chome Sign Builder is a win. It is easy to set up, includes multiple identity providers, and its Kiosk mode makes displaying the content a breeze on many different supported devices. It also doesn't require much maintenance, so if your team is small, it's a perfect fit.

Really great if you use the Google suite, which is virtually everywhere today. Anything google plays very well with the pre-configured business page on google, so if you are looking for something to get up and running quickly, I will pick google first. If you are a larger company and have a very specific use case in mind, you might want to look elsewhere if the customization isn't up to your liking, but I think it should be well-suited for just about everyone.

When you publish a Google Slides presentation online, the screen will automatically refresh as new information is added or removed. When working with this scenario, longer documents that can't be displayed on a single screen are less appropriate to work.

[Chrome] Sign Builder is fantastic if you have specific single page documents which you would like to display at different times. It always works well with a Google Slides presentation which can be published to the web as this will automatically update on screen. It would not work well with longer documents that don't fit on a single screen. Documents are also limited to taking up a percentage of the screen starting from one of the corners, it is not easy to customise the display further.
