Yodeck Erfahrungen

Vorteile

Lässt sich sehr einfach einrichten und administrieren

Nachteile

Leider nur Bezahlung mit Kreditkarte möglich.

Vorteile

Wir haben das Produkt bei Google entdeckt und wir sind sehr zufrieden.

Nachteile

Eher teure Subscription. Wir brauchen nur zwei Monitore.

Vorteile

Der Einrichtungsprozess war extrem einfach. Besonders gut ist der WYSIWYG-Editor zur Gestaltung der Anzeige. Sehr hilfreich ist auch der Zeitplan, der es ermöglicht die Anzeigetafel außerhalb der Bürozeiten auszuschalten.

Nachteile

Mit der Einbindung von hochauflösenden Videos gab es einige Probleme sodass schlussendlich Videos komprimiert werden mussten um Abstürze und ruckelnde Bilder zu vermeiden.

Vorteile

Die Einfachheit wie alles abläuft, vom Anmelden bis zu der Versendung des Players. verständliches Backend.

Nachteile

Man muss erst blicken wie das mit den Playlisten und dann mit der Zeitleise funktioniert. Die Mail-Adresse steht Yodeck dran und nicht meine Mail Adresse. Da ich dies in Zukunft für meine Kunden mehr machen möchte, ist dies natürlich nicht so gut.

Vorteile

Wir benutzen es als Begrüßungsbildschirm für unsere Kunden und ich bin sehr zufrieden damit wie einfach es einzustellen ist

Nachteile

Keine Kontras vorhanden, bin bisher zufrieden.

Vorteile

Es ist kostenlos und man kann es mit eigener Hardware hosten.

Nachteile

Es gibt kaum negatives zu berichten. Manchmal ist das Setup der Playlists kniffelig.

Vorteile

I was looking for a digital marketing platform that I could promote to a particular niche market and Yodeck provided most of the features I was looking for. Ease of management, workspaces and user privileges all make this ideal.

Nachteile

The only problem I experienced was with the scheduling module. Not being able to set a schedule to occur on a particular day for a period means a lot of additional manual scheduling.

Vorteile

Nice management panel, see if the monitors are on or off. Also the shutting down and turning on screens on schedule saves the sceens panels (previous tool didn't have this option, which caused displays to broke after year or two)

Nachteile

No good Microsoft integrations, only Power BI. Would be great if OneDrive for Business, Teams or Sharepoint online integrations would work.

OptiSigns

Warum Yodeck gewählt wurde

The Spectrio product was clunky, expensive and hard to use - too many parameters , poorly laid out controls, and sadly a bit dated looking. Yodeck makes uploading content easy, straighforward and flexible.

Reviews

Vorteile

Easy to update and schedule content. Very cool that you can set media to expire so that it won't show after the promotion is over!

Nachteile

The videos can sometime seem to flicker a little. I'm not sure if it's the Hz rate on the TV or the playback from YoDeck, but it's not bad enough that I've really looked into it too deep yet.

Vorteile

It was easy to setup and easy to use. The UI was simple and did not feel overwhelming. Most importantly, it worked as described. Access to widgets

Nachteile

The layout can definitely be improved. It is not necessarily bad but understanding its capabilities and how what you see on your computer translates to what you see on your signage screen can take a while. In other words, making the layout options more obvious and accessible.Widget load speed is slow and more widgets would be a welcome additiont

XOGO Decision Signage und OptiSigns

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Yodeck

It met all our requirements at a reasonable price. In addition, the sales person we spoke to, [sensitive content hidden] , was very helpful in explaining the product to us which helped us make an informed decision.

Vorteile

I enjoy how easy it is to setup and manage media

Nachteile

I’m not a fan of the duration setting.. probably just me coming from a construction background but it works when you get used to it

Vorteile

All the resources are excellent and easy to use! I believe the integration will be easy and very fun and rewarding!

Nachteile

It is very difficult to find software that I consider perfect...but YODECK meets all the requirements!

Vorteile

If your looking for something simple to use not hard to learn advanced features than this is for you. Plus the fact that the equipment supplied works amazing and really makes your visuals pop. Can use the built in tools or upload your own creations. Inexpensive and a great business feature.

Nachteile

I really can’t complain about the system. Haven’t had to use support as plenty of info easily accessible on youtube and simple to use.

OptiSigns

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Yodeck

Liked the hardware. Seemed reliable and powerful compared to other setups.

Vorteile

Its cloud-based approach allows for management anywhere, and the Raspberry Pi's are very reliable.The scripting engine for websites is very versatile, and I've used it greatly

Nachteile

OneDrive for Business integration should be standard for "Pro" users, and some of the playlist scheduling options are difficult to navigate

Vorteile

It is incredibly user friendly for both admins and customers. It's cheap and easy to deploy, it's easy to manage...it's amazing!

Nachteile

There are limited features compared to more full-fledged platforms, such as wayfinding. But we do not utilize that.

Play Digital Signage und BroadSign

Warum Yodeck gewählt wurde

Visix's hardware was expensive, finnicky, and unreliable. It felt like we were constantly fixing players. The interface was not user friendly, and required downloading apps to update content.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Yodeck

I assessed 20 different digital signage platforms, and YoDeck sits in a great middle ground. It is cheap and uses inexpensive hardware, but still feels stable and easy to use like a more fully-feature platform.

Vorteile

I love how easy the Yodeck app is to use. Tagging and scheduling content is EASY EASY EASY and works great!

Nachteile

I would like to see some improvements in the security with some of the widgets. I don't want to provide my login credentials for SharePoint, PowerBI, etc. to be able to use some of those widgets. There has to be a better (more secure) way...

ScreenCloud und Screenly

Warum Yodeck gewählt wurde

Managing PCs, Windows, Office, etc. was expensive, time-consuming, and a pain.

Zuvor genutzte Software

Microsoft PowerPoint

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Yodeck

Price, simplicity, Raspberry Pi players included

Vorteile

All cloud based to simple to update and sync to players. We've replaced our entire digital signage screens with TVs running Yodecks behind them. We've also managed to create one incorporated with a free to air setup TV box so staff can enjoy TV whilst we overlay important messages.

Around the school site we use them to display messages for students, live feeds from Twitter, the weather, time and news. Very powerful and very easy to use and manage.

Nachteile

Nothing. Every works well for us. Plenty of guides online helping if you get stuck too.

Screenly

Warum Yodeck gewählt wurde

Wanted the ability to use normal TV screens and update remotely.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Yodeck

Trialed YoDeck and worked brilliantly for us.

Vorteile

Coming from Samsung Magicinfo, Yodeck was far superior in almost every aspect. Wide varieties of media are playable as part of the slide deck, including PDF, images, videos and remote HTML. Our screen sat dead waiting for a solution before we found Yodeck.

Nachteile

The software does require a connection to the home server to operate, would be nice to have a fully offline mode. I haven't had a chance to test how the system would work in a fully offline environment.

Warum Yodeck gewählt wurde

Poor support from Samsung forced a change to new software.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Yodeck

Compatibility with our PI boxes, outstanding user interface, great customer support.

Vorteile

Being able to see if a TV is offline and even getting a screenshot. Having multiple locations that can each have their own separate content. Being able to integrate stand alone slides along with videos.

Nachteile

More options would be nice with the "ticker" and "time and date" features, such as fonts and colors.

Vorteile

The fact that it is a cloud based platform really works well for us. Due to not being reliant on a central publisher located in a DC, the management of the platform can be done from anywhere. With integrations for SSO from Azure AD, this also provides security and RBAC access from our existing estate without the need to manage individual users and groups in the application. Having Raspberry Pi's run the content displays is a nice touch too, as they are cheap to replace should one fail and using Micro SD cards to install the OS on is also really handy as these can be rebuilt in minutes should there be a problem with the player. There are a large number of widgets available out of the box, but being able to create your own is also really handy too. This way we can build a generic widget for a certain task, then just keep re-using it for different sites.

Nachteile

As with any new products, there are a few teething issues. These are mainly down to widgets needing to be developed to allow certain functionality. However, Yodeck tech support are very prompt and very helpful, so can't really say this is a down point. Just a staged development of the app integrations i suppose with any platform.

Vorteile

I am a safety engineer and it is very simple to work with for me. I can update the screens in various locations throughout our shop and have no problems. The set up was super easy and the websites that can be copy and pasted for web use works very well. This way I am able to put up safety videos over subjects we have problems with. I love that you can add powerpoint as well and it will set up the times to scroll through all of it. In some scenarios with past digital signage companies I had to paste slide for slide so this saves me a ton of time. Yodeck provides free players with subscriptions to services which makes it very convenient should you have to present for approval to corporate. All in all this is a great platform and I enjoy using it.

Nachteile

There is nothing I can think of besides maybe having a day counter option. I would like to put a clock up that counts the amount of days without an accident to display on the screens in the shop and I can't find anything like that on the widgets besides countdowns.

Vorteile

I am very familiar with various technology and the software is easily implemented and very user friendly. Even if you are not as technologically inclined the setup and maintenance is very straightforward. The main reason we went with yodeck is due to the remote management which streamlines new content across all of our locations.

Nachteile

I found the transitions between content on the screens to be a bit choppy. We now upload a single powerpoint converted to mp4 which prevents choppy transitions between slides. Although I believe it was updated since we started with yodeck but I haven't found the need to move away from our current method.

Vorteile

the simplicity of installation, working in the system along with the cost effective pricing were all a huge draw for me. When I received my systems, it was just as advertised! Everything up and running, a little learning about how to work the system and now we are up and going providing more information to our constituents than ever before in ways that make sense to their location onsite!

Nachteile

There is a slight learning curve on the back-end, but honestly, if you spend any time at all on it, you can pick it up quick.
