NowSignage Digital Signage Software One Year Subscription With Support

Power BI

Microsoft Power BI is an analytics solution tool designed for businesses to use daily. This collates data from hundreds of sources and visualises them into business critical data reports and live dashboards. This industry-first API integration with Microsoft Power BI allows customers to login NowSignage, connect their Power BI account using their Microsoft credentials, and display private reports across digital signage screens.

Display reports securely and privately. If you’re an existing user of Microsoft Power BI, you will already understand the value of this tool to your business. You will also likely be aware that you are unable to get the full value from your investment in BI, because you are unable to display reports to your staff without making those reports publicly available via a URL. NowSignage has provided a simple, affordable and secure solution to this problem. A user must hold a valid Power BI Pro licence to enable access to a users private workspaces.

Add Microsoft Power BI to NowSignage for no extra cost. The NowSignage Power BI application is easy to activate, install and use. Simply activate this app from the NowSignage in-platform app store and then connect using your Microsoft credentials. Through this integration, NowSignage enables users to load their workspaces and display their reports privately and securely on screen. Using NowSignage you can even mix your chosen Power BI reports to display in multi-zone layouts alongside all other digital signage content, including IPTV, and social media.

Multi Zone

Split up your screens into multiple zones to maximize the content output on a single display. Unlike other providers, our multi-zone layouts are added to a schedule, rather than tied to a specific screen. Giving a user flexibility over their screen layout at any time. You can even schedule layouts to automatically adjust based on the time or day of the week.

Pair content together. With all features compatible for display in any content zone, NowSignage provides multiple options for your multiple zones. Allow your content to seamlessly blend together by combining images, videos and live news, across your content zones, to create an eye catching digital experience. Choose content that compliment each other, such as a Power BI Dashboard alongside staff rotas, and safety information, all of which are pre-loaded and easily selected within the CMS.

Create and customize your own layout. All layouts within NowSignage are fully dynamic and customizable, so you can be confident that you will find your ideal layout. Our layout creation tool allows you to easily adjust both the positioning of your content and it’s aspect ratio. Once you have created your ideal layout there’s no need to reconfigure again as NowSignage will save and store any custom layouts.

Social Media

80% of consumers are likely to purchase an item based on the influence of social media. Therefore, displaying endorsed content via your digital signage network has never been more important. Don’t be limited to streaming just your latest posts, find all those great customer posts and broadcast those too!

Moderate and control the posts you display. Through our advanced social media search facility users can scour their social channels for relevant content, save that content in an organised folder system, and then publish it to their chosen screens. You can set various moderation settings and manually publish the best social media content directly to your screens, or you can even set this up to automatically publish the latest content for you within an aggregated social media feed.

NowSignage has custom API integrations with the top social media platforms. Display any text and image content from Facebook, X, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and LinkedIn.

Customise how social media posts are displayed on screen. Using the NowSignage creation tool, a user has the ability to fully brand the look and feel of their social media wall using our customisable templates that can be personalised to your exact needs. Ensure your screens adhere to your brand guidelines, colours and fonts.

Capacity Management

An award-winning integration with a people counting sensor to display footfall dashboards. NowSignage developed Capacity Management to help businesses rebuild consumer confidence in a post-Covid world, but the feature still has many uses today, including hospitality venues with strict capacity limitations, and for gaining key footfall analytics for locations, or times of day.

Single entrance or multi entrance. NowSignage enables you to connect and group your Hikvision Dual lens sensors to provide a live capacity count of customers in your store, automatically calculating across single or multiple entrances. This can be displayed in either a full screen format or in a dynamic multi-zone layout alongside other forms of content such as advertisements or live streams.

Receive full analytics reports. Not only do we provide the most advanced way of tracking customer-flow, but we also store every real-time number count, both of which provide tremendous value to the end-user and give ongoing ROI. This data can be used by business analysts to provide datadriven insight, or exported to create store/customer trend reports, helping marketeers understand when their store is most busy and then change advertising content on their signage accordingly

Google Traffic

Who hasn’t left the office only to kick yourself that you didn’t take ‘the other’ route home? Annoying, isn’t it? With our direct integration with Google, you are able to display local traffic in and around any given location, such as your office or premises. To help us all try to take the correct route home, NowSignage has developed a direct API integration with Google Traffic that allows users to display localised live traffic information on screens to inform your audience of relevant traffic congestion and of any road closures before leaving on their journey

This integration gives you full access to the Google Maps search engine. You can quickly search for traffic across any location in the world, including business addresses. You can add in as many locations as you like within NowSignage and easily target this live traffic information to your screens at a predetermined time. For example, you may want to schedule your screens to display the local traffic around the office 15 minutes before the staff are due to go home.

IPTV

Want to stream live TV? Wimbledon and World Cup games in the office, anyone? Well, NowSignage is the answer, as with the correct broadcasting permissions you can stream a variety of TV stations directly on your digital signage displays, without the need for any additional hardware or IT infrastructure changes. Within a few clicks, you can access any of our predefined channels such as BBC One or BBC News. You can even add in your own custom IPTV streams, as we have full functionality with any publicly available M3U link which you can quickly add straight into your digital signage playlist.

Display IPTV alongside other content using a Multi-Zone Layout. To maximize the versatility of your digital signage, why not display live TV alongside multiple forms of content. Our IPTV streams can easily be added into a dynamic multi-zone layout, so you could display this alongside a weather feed or even some promotional content. This is a perfect addition for a corporate environment or even a reception screen to help keep visitors engaged and entertained.

Add Live TV Channels into your playlists. With NowSignage, you can choose exactly when and how long to show a TV channel for by using our advanced scheduling system. Switch between IPTV channels, YouTube videos, photos, webpages, social media, RSS news and any other of our features included with all of our licenses.
