Overall Satisfaction with Chrome Sign Builder
We utilize Chome Sign Builder to display digital content, typically internal advertising, at all of our locations. It allows us to quickly and simply display current promotions or upcoming events to all of our customers and sometimes our staff as well. Chrome Sign Builder makes it easy for our marketing department to update and display content with minimal setup from the IT department.
- Schedules
- Fair pricing.
- Easy deployment on multiple devices.
- Customization of the default deployment of the content has to be done with JSON.
- Extended support for older Chrome OS devices.
- Aging Chrome Apps is set to end of life, and a replacement will be needed.
- Inexpensive pricing.
- Simple to set up and use.
- Easy deployment on devices that support Kiosk mode.
- Quick set up provides time back to our IT and Marketing departments.
- Inexpensive pricing for both licensing and devices allows us more budget for other products.
- Being able to display promotions easily on devices gives us additional sales!
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 Sign Builder, it was a faster turnaround from start-buying licenses to end-deploying the digital signage than the other solutions listed.

Chrome Sign Builder Support

We did not purchase premium support because we found it was an expense that we didn't really need. The simplicity of setting up Chrome Sign Builder made up for the fact that we didn't need a complex solution with unique deployments so our use case is really straightforward and rarely runs into issues.
Unfortunately, I cannot. I haven't had the best experience with their support and have only needed it a few times in the last 5-8 years since we onboarded our display devices with Chrome Sign Builder. While I wouldn't say support is great, the product seems to fit our use case!
