Meet PosterMyWall’s Digital Signage Partners
Did you know that in addition to being ideal for print, web, social media, and email, PosterMyWall graphics, videos, and animations can be used to create dynamic content for digital signage?
Of course you say. It makes sense that PosterMyWall images and tools are a fast and painless way to create great visual content for your company, restaurant, organization, or store’s digital display system.
But what you might not know is that currently, PosterMyWall partnered with several top digital signage management solutions. What that means is that we’ve worked with Raydiant, Signagelive, Display5, and ScreenCloud to integrate our tools with their systems. The result? Fast and easy content creation for your digital signage needs.
So how do you know if you need a digital signage management system, which digital signage management solution is right for you—and how our partners’ management systems work with PosterMyWall? Read on, my friend…
Why work with a digital signage management system?
Let’s start with why you might consider using a digital signage management solution. Yes, you can load PosterMyWall videos and images--as well as other assets--on a thumb drive and create your own loop without a management solution. But it isn’t that easy to do and often, the loop doesn’t play that well.
Digital signage management systems are for companies and organizations who want a more sophisticated and reliable solution. These systems enable you to:
Deliver consistently, even with 24x7 usage.
Schedule content across many monitors and/or locations.
Manage or reboot your signage remotely. (this is key if you have multiple locations)
Add, change, or update content with a few minutes’ notice.
Ability to schedule your content across many signs and location
Manage content review workflows.
Accommodate teams of users with different roles and controlled access.
Raydiant
The Raydiant digital signage and experience platform turns screens into gorgeous signage in less than five minutes. The result is an elevated in-location experience for your customers. Ideal for small to mid-sized organizations operating one or more screens at a single or multiple locations, users just plug Raydiant into the back of their video player and follow a simple set of instructions. No designer is required to create stunning graphics due to Raydiant’s partnership with PosterMyWall and once your device is connected, you can easily update what is showing on your screens from anywhere.

Your Raydiant subscription even includes access to the BlueJeans video conferencing app.
Raydiant + PosterMyWall
Good digital signage is only as good as its content, which is why Raydiant forged a strategic partnership with PosterMyWall. With over 150,000 designer templates to choose from, PosterMyWall makes it easy for Raydiant users to create gorgeous digital posters and videos in a manner of minutes—and since Raydiant is a cloud-based platform, they can do it anytime, anywhere.
Raydiant has an integrated PosterMyWall editor for the most seamless experience possible.

Just open PosterMyWall from within the Raydiant CMS, select a template, customize to your heart’s content, and save. Your new design is already a part of the Raydiant system and is available to play.
"We’re so grateful for our partnership with PosterMyWall. It’s been a real game-changer for our customers because they no longer need to pay a design team. The second someone becomes a Raydiant customer they instantly have access to all of PosterMyWall’s templates, which makes designing, updating and managing all signage and menu boards quick and easy. Not to mention, customers can now update their PosterMyWall imagery directly from the Raydiant dashboard, making for a simple seamless experience, no matter when or where they need to make a change." - Bobby Marhamat, CEO of Raydiant.
Signagelive
Signagelive has over twenty years of experience providing enterprise-class digital signage software, services and support to customers in 46 countries. What that means for you is expertise, stability, and a broad array of services. Designed to scale, Signagelive is an excellent solution for companies who want to make it fast and simple to run dozens of players across multiple locations.
Signagelive’s goal is to make running a digital display so easy to manage, it can be done at any scale with the smallest team of content managers possible, said Tim Baker, major account manager for Signagelive. “We can run literally thousands of players with hundreds of individual users with a combination of shared content and content that is unique per location. And we make it equally easy to run that scale of program when it’s managed by just a few people,” Tim said.
Easy management tools enable users to decide which locations and devices each piece of content will be delivered to—enabling you to exclude certain stores from certain promotions and create custom content for others. And because it’s all done remotely, your team can manage the system without individual site visits—which saves a ton of time.
The Signagelive platform includes free utilities that provide time, weather, and other commonly used display content. Users create their own custom graphics and content on whatever platform they prefer—including PosterMyWall.
Signagelive works with any combination of hardware, so customers are free to select their own. Capabilities include the ability to incorporate touch screen triggers that activate content changes or enable users to interact with select content. Full reporting capabilities mean that users can track how many times an asset has appeared at a particular location or on a particular screen.
Signagelive + PosterMyWall
Signagelive supports web-based content—which means users can import the content they create in PosterMyWall directly into the Signagelive interface. “We want our customers to have access to best-in-class solutions for the areas we don’t provide—such as content creation,” Tim said.
PosterMyWall is an important partner for Signagelive because it makes it easy for those customers who aren’t experts in Photoshop or video production to create professional quality content in minutes. “Many companies don’t have graphic design capability inhouse. PosterMyWall is a simple and elegant solution that enables these customers to effortlessly create the content they need.” Tim noted that PosterMyWall tools are also an excellent way for companies to build on and embellish existing assets.

Display5
The Display5 digital display content management system—designed for simplicity, flexibility, and control—delivers a low-cost way to easily manage digital content. Highly scalable, it’s an excellent solution for anyone from a small company, who only has a couple of screens, to managers at larger enterprises that handle hundreds of screens of different types and sizes. And because it’s 100% web-based, customers can control and adjust their messaging—even create new content—from anywhere they can log onto the internet.
Paul Gragtmans, president and CEO of Display5, said his platform delivers unparalleled scheduling and control capabilities. Display5 can be set up with multiple levels of permissions, which streamline the content approval process and make it easy for team members to communicate with team members in individual locations.
If you have multiple screens to manage in your company or for content designers with multiple clients, the Display5 digital signage service lets you manage the content remotely right from your Player dashboard on your browser. You can easily manage:
Content selection. What plays on a player, that is, which “Show” or content will be streamed.
Schedule. What content is scheduled to play when. Set and forget.
Content creation. Create or edit PosterMyWall designs and other content without leaving the system.
Control. Your players can be reset remotely as needed.
With Display5, companies can combine PosterMyWall and other design assets with any other content type they’d like. Live feeds, scrolling messages, time, and Twitter or Instagram feeds can all be integrated into any variation of full-screen, divided-screen, or screen with embedded panel layouts.
Display5 does not sell hardware. “We think hardware is something that customers should select based on their own needs and budgets,” said Paul. Customers use Windows players, Raspberry PIs, Android players, and just about anything else that runs a browser.

Content created in PosterMyWall is just, well, WOW! on a large video wall, re-sized for a room tablet, or for a panel or zone on the screen canvas.
