More of What You Need
At ScreenScape we think a digital signage software platform should offer you more of what you need in an effective solution.
For starters it should include a plug and play media player that works with any TV and just about any network to streamline and simplify IT challenges.
Secondly it should include an easy-to-use content management system that offers time-saving media templates, flexible editing tools, built-in infotainment options and a range of automation techniques. Together these components deliver a scalable communications network that empowers your organization to create stunning visuals that capture and hold the attention of your audience wherever a screen is located.

Less of what you don’t want
An effective digital signage platform should also give you less of what you don’t want. That means it should deliver the full value of a professional digital signage network but with lower capital costs, lower operating costs, and an easy way to monitor and maintain your entire network. With ScreenScape there are no unhappy surprises and no hidden costs.

Why the new version?
ScreenScape5 represents a major technology upgrade for ScreenScape and its customers. New technology is available today that wasn’t available when we began building ScreenScape more than ten years ago. This new technology base gives us newer and better options for delivering digital signage solutions. It helps us to raise the bar when it comes to key aspects of digital signage such as beautiful aesthetics, ease-of-use, and overall flexibility while preparing the company for its next wave of growth.

If you are NOT using gen2 devices your only upgrade path is device replacement.Does ScreenScape provide free hardware?
For new or off-contract customers, yes. Under the terms of our 36 month plan (Extended Subscription) ScreenScape provides new customers with a $200 commitment discount. The $200 discount offsets the cost of new hardware.
