    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 does everything I want it to do without being too hard to use. The software is very powerful and has many options for apps, templates, and other things. We use it as the TV in our lobby, so we mostly show welcome messages, the weather, and video uploads from Vimeo and Instagram. Really easy to use, so I only have to spend a few minutes a week updating it. I make sure that all of my clients welcomes and other content play on the right day by scheduling them ahead of time. Give it a try and you will not be disappointed.

    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.

    • Simple installation, easy platform, multiple templates, reasonable cost.
    • Excellent customer service. Each staff is very knowledgeable about the product and eager to assist. Very quick resolution of concerns.

    • Love the flexibility around customizing the content.

    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

    • A few of the templates are difficult to modify or have restrictions on what may be added. During the holidays, for example, there are just a few photographs available. If you have a lengthy name, some of the birthday templates might be difficult.
    • When the gadget doesn't operate, we have to reset it at least twice a month.
    • The other drawback is the website's lack of speed / responsiveness at times.

    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.

    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.

    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

    • It is much simpler to convey a message to all of the employees of the organization if it is shown on the television in a common area where they may see it on several occasions during the day.
    • It has also been of great use to us in personalizing security training invites for our customers, and the reaction that we have received from them has been really positive.
    • truDigital is a user-friendly platform that doesn't break the bank. In addition to that, their support for customers is exceptional. We could not have wished for a more fruitful collaboration than the one we had.
