Generated using AI

Last updated: Nov 04, 2026

What is Play Digital Signage, and what problem is it built to solve?

Education: Education Management and primary/secondary education are recurring use settings.
Hospitality and restaurants: Users apply it to guest information and menu displays.
Retail: Common uses include promotions and storefront content.

Time to go live	Relative frequency
Less than 1 day	Most common
Less than 1 month	Less common
1–3 months	Occasional

What customer support options does Play Digital Signage provide, and how do users find the overall support experience?

Support is available through online and self-service channels, and the overall experience is often described as responsive and helpful. Options include email, phone, and chat, with 24/7 live-rep support. Users describe getting quick answers and practical assistance, though experiences with support quality are not entirely uniform.

What is the experience like for teams switching to Play Digital Signage from another tool?

Switching to Play Digital Signage is often driven by a desire for an easier-to-manage, more affordable option with better-fitting features. Users describe moving from alternatives including Samsung signage systems, Yodeck, OptiSigns, PosterBooking, and Xibo; the new platform is valued for a simpler interface, more convenient content management, and, in some cases, improved reliability or compatibility. The transition is described as straightforward by some teams, while setup and particular integrations can take extra effort depending on the devices and workflow.

Design and cloud files: Canva, Google Drive, and Google Slides.
Social and feeds: Facebook, Instagram, and RSS.
Business data and reporting: Microsoft Excel and Power BI.
Video and web content: Vimeo and YouTube.

These connections help teams bring existing designs, files, feeds, dashboards, and video into screen content, reducing the need to recreate or update everything separately.

What features or capabilities could make Play Digital Signage even more useful?

Play Digital Signage could be more useful with richer design options and smoother ways to manage content as layouts and playlists grow. Recurring improvement requests include:

Expand design flexibility: Add more ready-made templates, customization controls, animation options, and stronger text and layout tools.
Broaden and refine widgets and integrations: Provide more plugins and services, with better calendar and social-feed presentation.
Simplify playlist and scheduling workflows: Make complex schedules and multiple playlists easier to organize, reuse, and update.

"Effortless Setup and Feature-Rich—Works Perfectly from Day One"

5/5

What do you like best about Play Digital Signage?

The ease of use and the range of features are perfectly suited to our needs. It worked flawlessly for us on the very first try. Being able to update and publish remotely is also a significant advantage for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Play Digital Signage?

Nothing really to highlight. It just works Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Play Digital Signage solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were looking for a better way to promote events at our club. In the past, we relied on notice boards and attaching paper announcements, but this was a very manual process—someone always had to print the papers and physically go to the premises to put them up. Play Digital has completely transformed this for us. Now, we can display animated adverts with sound, schedule them to appear on specific dates and times, and update everything easily, all from the comfort of home.

Response from Lars Holmgaard of Play Digital Signage

We're glad to hear that Play Digital Signage has solved your club's event promotion challenges and has provided a more efficient and dynamic solution for your needs. Thank you for sharing your positive experience!

"Easy to use, with quick screen updates and the option to schedule advertisements."

5/5

What do you like best about Play Digital Signage?

Ease of understanding, ease of configuration, and agility in update processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Play Digital Signage?

It would be great to display Google Sheets in real-time more easily; currently, when a spreadsheet is displayed on a TV, it appears as a full web page—often showing browser menus—rather than just the spreadsheet itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Lars Holmgaard of Play Digital Signage

Hi,

Thanks for the review.

About the Google Sheets, please check the link. Sometimes users share the sheets the wrong way, and then it becomes a website with a browser top bar, etc. Also, feel free to use the Live Chat if you have further questions.

"Easy Collaboration and Advertisement for Nonprofits"

"Effortless Content Creation and Seamless Integration"

5/5

What do you like best about Play Digital Signage?

I love how easy it is to create content on the fly with it and that it has so mamy different sources the software can pull from whether you want to display a website or an RSS feed. Plus there is social integration like Instagram. It is real easy to create playlists and implement them instantly. This is a daily driver for me to inform co workers of constantly changing information. It's so easy I have never even needed to contact their customer support! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Play Digital Signage?

So far no downsides that I have run across Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Play Digital Signage solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am able to change information remotely on the screen and have it scheduled ahead of time so I do not have to constantly be thinking when I need to change a template or a schedule since there are also multiple schedules and screens to plan ahead with! A true time saver as I can set it and forget it, but it is always available wherever I might be if I need to change a slide or information at short notice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy Setup and Intuitive Interface Across All Platforms"

5/5

What do you like best about Play Digital Signage?

Play Digital Signage is super easy to get set up and working, regardless of platform.

I tested it on Amazon FireTV Stick and a Windows device. Both were easy simple to get set up and working. Many other platforms are supported. Even Linux and Raspberry PI are supported.

Play has tutorials for many of the features you’ll want to use to get content on your screen right away. The interface is intuitive and quite user-friendly. Setting up schedules (even multiple, overlapping ones) are easy and make sense.

The ability to setup multiple “test” screens is a great way to see how additional screens look without having to pay for subscriptions right away. You can convert “test” screens to “production” screens at any time.

Pricing is very competitive, with an entry level option that is better than most others out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Play Digital Signage?

I can't think of much to dislike here. Some of the more advanced features take some exploration to find and figure out, but again they have tutorials for a lot of things, so be sure to make use of those. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
