Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros This software is an absolute game-changer! Its user-friendly interface makes navigation a breeze, and setting it up couldn't be easier. The diverse range of options for displaying information is impressive, and the ability to interact with content via touchscreens adds a whole new level of engagement. Whether you're showcasing products, providing information, or enhancing presentations, FrontFace delivers unparalleled functionality with seamless simplicity. Highly recommend! Capabilities are numerous! You can add scrolling RSS feeds, videos, PDF files, web pages and more! I like the various styles you can use to make each page. Very customizable. You can make content complex with schedules and animation, or as simple as playing whatever you place in a network folder. You can buy add-on modules as well. I really like how easy it is to setup different publishing methods. One of the reasons that we went with FrontFace was that we could publish the projects directly onto our internal network drive, which has enabled us to control access on both a network drive, and user account level. I also like how customizable the player's features are with the ability to shut off things I don't want like Cortana, and some windows features using the Lockdown Tool. I also like how I was able to teach an average user how to setup the content, and after about 1 month of occasional questions and concerns, I pretty much don't hear from the content side unless they're trying to setup something completely new. I really like how easy it is to edit the contents of each player and control multiple players from one project, as that has enabled us to rollout general announcements to different departments quite easily. I also like how quickly support has answered any of my questions when one of my players had problems. I have 4 players, with another 3 in a different office that I'm not responsible for, and of the 7 total usually all are either working correctly, or one has a problem that is fixed by a restart once a week. Mirabyte FrontFace provided the missing piece to our electrical substation ready room message board. It satisfied our stringent cybersecurity requirements. Its easy intuitive setup is a breeze - quick and easy to update daily! Screen development including video content provide the important scheduling information the team needs on a daily basis. The ticker tape option provides emphasis for key information to all personnel. We were able to integrate our custom database into FrontFace fairly easily as our database program is extremely old. Security per user was a huge benefit. IT can push update and lock things down remotely and easily. Cons So far, I haven't encountered any issues with the software, and it has fulfilled all my wishes seamlessly. The lockdown tool can be a bit too complex, although the default settings are probably good for most users. Sometimes the program gets confused and puts the wrong content on the display, though this seems like it may be Windows fault as much as FrontFace since the screens are being re-ordered in Windows. For a while the auto-login setting in the Lockdown Tool didn't work with my domain, this fixed itself a few months ago, so I'm not entirely sure if it was Microsoft, or a problem with the Lockdown Tool. Most other minor problems I've had have been fixed by doing either a daily, or weekly restart of the player computer. Using MS Excel directly is bit challenging. It's easier to convert the excel spreadsheets to a .pdf file and upload to FrontFace. Working with multiple displays of different orientation and resolution on a single PC caused challenges getting the correct display to remain in the correct position with the correct resolution, especially during a reboot.		Pros from Real Users Pros Very easy to use platform. Allows you to display a wide variety of media on TV screens, including PDFs, animation/videos, Microsoft Office documents, as well as social media posts. Reasonable pricing provides good value. Easy to use Web GUI, intuitive to use, easy to install. I liked that it works with your own Raspberry Pi 3+. The features are relatively simple once set. The widgets are great.

Our digital signage looks very professional, and we are able to share important info with customers. Very easy to use. Very easy to understand administrator interface. Very available and very nice support. Ease of use, nice feature set, outstanding support, price, uptime has been excellent. Overall the exact solution we were looking for in order to provide informational content to our clients. Yodeck allows you to feed data and info from an incredible array of sources. Their support team is very detailed and have always ensured that I get the proper information to any support question while also checking in to make sure everything is going as planned. The ability to have different types of media or media lists to select for a show's content is a great feature. Also, the layering of media on the show editor is really helpful and works great as well!
