With Microsoft Windows being the most used operating system in the world, a Windows signage media player will be a great choice for beginners and large scale organisations equally. When you schedule your contents via the scheduler, the data is uploaded to the server which is then transferred to your local network and subsequently relayed to your Windows signage media player ready to be viewed on-screen.
Some of the benefits of using windows signage include:
- Live Content Deployment: Keep your content relevant and up to date with timely updates from the central server. This will increase customer engagement as you will be able to deploy the same as well as different contents on many displays simultaneously from the server while also granting you the flexibility of importing data from external sources. This opens up a world of unlimited possibilities.
- Windows updates: Microsoft has got your back when it comes to security and reliability of your network with its regular updates, vulnerability fixes and security patches.
- High Definition contents: With advanced codecs built in the operating system, playback of different formats of contents has never been so easy.
- Multiple Orientation: You can easily switch orientation according to the resolution of the delivery screen, making it a very versatile option for displays of varying sizes and shapes.
- User-Friendly platform: Most of us has probably grown up with a PC running Microsoft Windows as its operating system and being ubiquitous, the platform has focussed immensely on the department of user experience. Microsoft Windows is perhaps the most user-friendly operating system in the market, therefore, making it a great choice for your remote media player for all of your digital signage needs.
- A huge community: As mentioned Microsoft Windows has the biggest market share in terms of OS users, which in turn rears a huge community of enthusiasts.
