## Reviews

### "Sold Budget Signage Solution" — 4.0/5

> **Lee** | *5 August 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy setup and configuration of the basic system.  Responsive portal. Competitive pricing. Pretty flexible setup. Support is quick to respond.
> 
> **Cons**: With customizing power comes complexity. I'd like more up-to-date training and some kind of "Basic" mode for less advanced users.  I'd also love some more examples of advanced layouts that I could look at and show to team members for inspiration.
> 
> Overall its a solid system and it gets the job done for us.  The issues we do have are as much to do with the computers it runs on as anything for the most part, though we have had a few webpages layouts that have thrown us for a loop.

### "Excellent flexible and cost-effective digital signage solution." — 5.0/5

> **Héctor** | *6 March 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The flexibility of the platform and the granular control over layouts are its best features. It offers great value for money, especially being an open-source solution that provides enterprise-level features without the high costs of proprietary software.
> 
> **Cons**: The learning curve can be steep for new users, and the layout designer interface feels a bit dated compared to newer SaaS alternatives. Additionally, the licensing costs for non-Windows players were not immediately clear from the start.
> 
> My experience has been very positive. Despite the initial setup challenges, it is a reliable and stable system for managing a screen network. It gives you full control over your content and security, making it a solid choice for digital signage.

### "Xibo just runs efforlessly once you set it up" — 5.0/5

> **Faisal** | *7 January 2026* | Restaurants | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Xibo is a fantastic digital signage platform that offers flexibilty with cloud hosting and self-hosted version on various platforms. It offers great features, solid documentation and support if needed all at a good value.
> 
> **Cons**: There is a bit of a learning curve to it when you are new to the platform. However, there are good documentations to guide you through your setup.
> 
> I have been using Xibo on and off for many years, since version 1.8 over a decade ago. It continiously improves with more features and stability updates and the team are very helpful if you ever need support. I use a selfhost version that runs without any hiccups effortlessly. It is a set and forget platform that you will not worry about missing a beat.

### "Xibo: Economical, Rock Solid Signage Solution" — 4.0/5

> **David** | *5 March 2026* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Xibo is a highly reliable, economical, web-based application/platform for distributing text and graphics content to TV display signage screens. Content may be scheduled or static. It's well supported and updated with acceptable frequency.
> 
> **Cons**: The Xibo interface, while versatile and powerful, has a steep learning curve. Xibo and its many users provide adequate learning content, but it would be fantastic if the environment could be simplified.
> 
> We're a small US college that has used Xibo for over 10 years, since it was freeware. Having less than 10 signage screens across our campus, it has worked well enough for us to continue using it after they starting charging annual fees.
