Electronic directory boards are fast becoming the norm. If you want to give your building or facility an upgrade, here are key points to consider:
Go beyond the brand name
People tend to go for the brands they know. That’s why you’ll see a lot of bias towards a particular brand among first-time shoppers. However, with so many excellent options out there for commercial-grade digital signage displays that can cater to a range of sizes and features, going beyond the brand is a wise move. You’ll find plenty of options that hit the mark on cost, operational features and appearance if you learn to look beyond the brand name, says Digital Signage Today.
Pick a display
There are three types of models for flat panel-displays. There’s LCD, LED and OLED, which stands for organic light-emitting diode. Weigh the pros and cons of each of these options before you commit to a final decision. If you want a cost-effective solution an LCD or LED can work. If you want high powered results that will impress high profile clients, you might want to check out OLED displays.
Ask about durability
If you’re planning to put your electronic directory boards right by the doors, that’s going to expose them to a lot of heat, dust and humidity. Be prepared for that by going for durable options, ones that will last you a long time. That way, you won’t have to shell out more cash for premature replacements.
Mind the features
Look for options that offer great features. Will the display automatically adjust the brightness level to changes in light conditions? Is there a user lock out? Can you adjust your images easily? You’ll want to make sure these features—and more—are included before you decide on which displays and boards will be a good match for your application.
