The argument
Why this one and not the other twelve
Most signage products do the same job competently. Three things separate this one, and one of them is the reason people call us in the first place. There is a cost to choosing it, and it is written down here rather than discovered later.
1. It interrupts. Actually interrupts.
Nearly every signage product can show an urgent message in its own playlist. Almost none can take a television that is showing something else — a news channel, a match, a presentation somebody left running three months ago — and cover it.
On Android, Signvero does. The alert draws over whatever app is in front, the screen wakes if it was asleep, and the panel reports back which screens displayed it and which did not. That report is the difference between believing a message went out and knowing it did.
2. It runs on the screens already on the wall
Most buildings are not short of televisions. They are short of a way to reach all of them at once. Any Android television works as it is, anything with a browser works through the web player, and a set with neither takes an inexpensive box on its HDMI port.
So the first conversation is usually about a few boxes and an afternoon, not a hardware budget. The televisions, the mounts and the cabling are already paid for.
3. It keeps playing when the line drops
A screen on a factory floor with intermittent Wi-Fi, a remote site on a flaky line, a building halfway through an outage: these are the moments when a message matters most.
Every screen plays from its own storage, so losing the connection changes nothing on the wall. Alerts sent during the outage are delivered the moment the screen comes back, and anything it missed is re-sent rather than quietly skipped.
What it costs you
Written here rather than discovered at month three.
- It is a subscription, not a thing you buy once
- Your content sits on our servers, not in your building
- Each screen needs a working internet connection to be reached
- Uptime is ours to get right, which means trusting us with it
If your organisation cannot have content leaving the building at all, say so early. There are arrangements for that, and they are a different conversation.
What you get for it
- Hosting, backups and updates, with nothing for IT to run
- The Android player and the admin app on your phone
- A health page that says which part has stopped
- A person who knows your setup, not a ticket queue
The uncomfortable part
One price, and it has to cover the whole thing
A hosted platform quotes you for the software and leaves the rest on your side of the line: the server, the person who patches it, the afternoon somebody spends when a screen stops. Those costs do not disappear because they are not on the invoice.
Here they are on the invoice. The subscription covers the hosting, both apps, the updates, the backups and the support, and it is priced in bands by the size of the estate rather than screen by screen — so the larger the estate, the less each screen works out at, and adding one is a question of whether it is useful rather than what it costs.
That is the trade. You are paying for a thing that is run for you, and the honest version of that sentence is that we have to be worth it every month rather than once.
Not sure it is the right fit?
Tell us the size of the estate and what is on the screens today. We will tell you honestly whether this is the right thing to buy.
No open demo, no sign-up wall, a person reads every request.
