Transparency and orientation

Choosing the right digital signage software

The digital signage software market is changing rapidly: not only software architecture and business models, but also the range of features and user requirements. A silo CMS is often no longer sufficient - device management, (programmatic) advertising, media asset management are required too. What is the right solution? A software suite, experience platform or even an headless CMS? invidis brings transparency and orientation.

No other digital signage product is as subject to change as software. Until a few years ago, the share of software in digital signage value creation was less than 5 per cent – usually a one-off at the beginning of the project with a few service and update euros per month. Today, software providers have almost doubled their share in the digital signage value chain. Subscriptions have become the standard, CMS suites have become platforms and at least a handful of other OS and SoC platforms are supported in addition to Windows. And device management is indispensable for digital signage business critical networks.
