HootBoard is not only easy to use but can be made to work for a variety of different use cases which was perfect for our team. We use the interactive kiosk and the TV screens, and both the front end and back end experiences were great. > > **Cons**: Since HootBoard is a new company there are a few minor bugs in the software. But for every issue that we ran into the support team was available and ready to help us find a solution. > > The kiosk setup was easy and adding content to the backend was pretty smooth too. Our customers seem to really appreciate the interactivity and dynamic display. ----- ### "Dynamite way to promote our department\!" — 5.0/5 > **Bethany** | *4 May 2018* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Love being able to quickly add events, tips, and tricks for our students\! Our students can see the hoot board as soon as they walk in and it draws attention to our department that we did not receive before\! > > **Cons**: Nothing - i love it all\! I wish we could have more of them and that I had more time to really dive deep and use all of the promotional tools available. ----- ### "Great customer service\!\!\! Easy to use platform for communicating with a wide audience." — 4.0/5 > **Charlotte** | *2 April 2018* > > **Pros**: User friendly for posting a myriad of events/items/announcements. Nice display of posts. Loved offering to members to contribute. > > **Cons**: A few features had hiccups or took time to iron out - i.e. events disappearing after they occurred. Would love to know a character count so copy doesn't get cut off. ----- ### "Simple, elegant, powerful digital signage" — 5.0/5 > **Scott** | *6 August 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Being able to very quickly and easily upload just about any type of content to a distributed network of HootBoards, including touch capable and non touch displays, ensures we're constantly putting up new content. A low barrier to use/administer is essential to user uptake and appreciation. > > **Cons**: Expensive hardware that's essentially off-the-shelf kiosks. But the software is what makes this product so that can be forgiven. > > We needed a better, faster way to share content across the org at multiple locations and in an engaging, creative way. HootBoard checks all those boxes and then some. Implementation was very easy, support is always timely, HootBoard listens to and acts upon feature/bug requests, and I have only positive things to say about them/the product. We've gone from our initial purchase of one kiosk to 6 displays and as long as they keep up with the stiff digital signage competition, this will only continue to grow. We also recommend this product to our clients that need a simple digital signage solution. ----- ### "Big Kid Ipad" — 5.0/5 > **Ian** | *18 July 2019* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like this software because it makes it simple to post resident events and deals in the local area that our residents can view as they get their mail and packages after work. This allows them to see what is going on in the area, building, and what we can offer them outside of just a typical apartment rental. > > **Cons**: Sometimes there are functionality items that I would like to add, but it is only link based instead of open applications. > > I would rate my experience as very good with the board, the techs, and support staff. They are always all helpful and quick to respond. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/80904/hootboard?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/80904/hootboard) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
