Take over any screen

NowSignage has developed the most advanced social media search facility on the market anywhere today. The search tool allows you to scour your social channels for relevant content, save that content in an organised folder system, and then publish it to your 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.

As always, it’s simple to use

The very nature of an announcement means they need to be made quickly and simply. Therefore, sending this triggered content within NowSignage couldn’t be easier. It’s as simple as clicking on the screens within the CMS that you’d like to push the message to, typing out your custom message and clicking send!

You can even preschedule announcements in advance as you have access to a full 12 month calendar to preselect dates/times you’d like to send your announcements at.

“We wanted a way to communicate the Oliver James brand internally, plus have a personal touch by wishing a colleague ‘happy birthday’ or congratulating them on a promotion. It’s all about building internal engagement within the company and NowSignage seem the best company to do this.”

John Williamson, Group Marketing Manager at Oliver James Associates

Tagging & permissions

Use our simple roles & permissions feature to limit which users can access the announcements feature.

You can even use our tagging system to simplify the announcements feature even further! Tags are free-text and can be assigned to any screen, for example, you could tag 10 screens with a ‘UK’ tag and then push a live announcement to all screens which contain that specific tag.
