Pros from Real Users

Pros

  • Rise Vision offers and great digital signage solution. It is easy to set up as well as manage and deploy.
  • Ease of use Seamless integrations Hardware flexibility Low maintenance Affordability Remote management
  • I like that you can link the program to Canva and easily update the signage with things made on Canva.
  • Easy to use and set up. Centralized management makes it easy to manage multiple displays. Content and announcements can be updated quickly. Saves time for the IT team. Suitable for organizations with a large number of teachers and staff. Makes it easier to monitor displays and troubleshoot issues.
  • Rise Vision was easy to set up and use, and it works well once running. The main challenge was initially figuring out the proper device to use for the app, though support helped quickly. It’s helped solve digital signage needs so HR can post messages and notes that many locations can easily see. How did you decide which device to run it on, and what made that choice easier?
  • Communication was excellent, very easy to work with. Design was great and will be helpful to our customers.
  • Ease of use, the fact that it has Canva integration makes it so simple to import custom graphics directly from one platform to the other. The software is so easy to troubleshoot any issues that might turn up that it practically runs itself!
  • Screen organization: it was easy to locate the screens by name. It was just a user, not an administrator, and it was user-friendly on my end.
  • The templates make it very easy to get started and continually refresh our presentations. The interface walks you through adding new visuals and calls to action. It has saved me time since I don't have to think up everything on my own.
  • There are a lot of templates to use to get started and make posting easier, but it also allows you to connect directly to Canva to upload your own content.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Ease of use. A good way to communicate with employees with the computer. The metrics inside the tool. The content folder makes it easy to use.
  • Easy to send information, templates that help organize what you want to communicate. It speeds up the time used to send the interested parties.
  • Our facility has undertaken a huge EHR Upgrade, which impacts every employee - this is a great way to reach everyone with updates. Our marketing department has started using the system to send out updates for upcoming events - my department uses the program to share updates and our nursing department uses it for Nursing Education. In a recent sudden downtime of systems-I used SnapComms to alert areas of downtime needs.
  • Great pop-up and screensaver options with personalization to your company colors and logos. The special holiday popups are always a nice change of pace as well.

Cons

  • Ticker. Sometimes miss messages and don't pop back up again.
  • It takes time to update on computers. Some functions can be improved to show more information, for example, polls.
  • We have experienced no issues with using the product, it's very easy to train staff to update their sub-departments.
  • Needs more holiday popups and maybe more ala cart options or the ability to build your own package.
