    software for reception display

    we have a display at the entrence reception, basically use it for displaying photos and information. We have been using powerpoint for the last 2 year and think its about time that we used software thats alot easier to manage.

    any suggestions or ideas?

    Search the forums for 'digital signage', there's plenty of discussion on the topic.

    I'm sure you love it SO much that you had to come here and advertise it as much as possible!

    we use AV Manager , i would suggest no one buy it as it is awful, have had nothing but trouble trying to set up the schedules.

    You could try Sabercom who supplied our reception screen and software, its pretty good and does everything we need. They intalled a screen and the software but if you only need software its probably a lot cheaper.

    could you use the xibo software that has been mentioned before? I had a look at it and seemed to be alright...

    Another vote here for xibo, it's very simple to set up and use. Made my life much easier.
