Reviews of Yodeck
Yodeck for you!
Pros:
I love the ease of use of Yodeck and that they have a great free product to try out with very few limitations. Definitely glad I upgraded.
Cons:
The web player doesn't seem to refresh as quickly but that might be the device I am using.
Alternatives Considered: XOGO Decision Signage
Reasons for Switching to Yodeck: We looked at a lot of digital signage platforms but I am unsure of any of the ones we looked at as it was some time ago.
Best for our needs
Comments: No problems, saves u s a lot of time maintaining the devices, when there are any problems, everything is fixed fast, in a matter of hours. Pretty much most hassle-freee experience from all systems we've tried.
Pros:
Fast response times of support, they try to do everything for the best experience
Cons:
Lacking remote desktop, which is by design, so nothing we can do about it now.
Alternatives Considered: Screenly
Reasons for Choosing Yodeck: maintenance costs - need to have a dedicated 1/2 FTE
Switched From: Debian
Reasons for Switching to Yodeck: ease of use and price, included devices, multiplatform
horrible product and service
Comments: would not recommend the product is awful and never works and getting someone to help you is impossible
Pros:
This service is horrible and unreliable, there is a problem every other day
Cons:
it never works and trying to get someone to help you is impossible
Great product with more features than most organizations will need
Comments: The onboarding was simple. A rep walked us through the process. The hardware came ready to use. The only thing left for the end user is to manage content. We load our announcement slides and set the date each one will expire, assign the slides to the desired monitors, and let Yodeck do all the work. We even use a severe weather alert feed because our area has experienced several catastrophic weather events.
Pros:
Yodeck does everything we need (and more) than a service we had before for price that is affordable for any size organization. The service expands as your organization expands its implementation. We had another very similar service that increased their fee to $2500/year for two unique digital sign outputs. We have expanded the number of digital signs for a fraction of the cost.
Cons:
In our church, we use the live video feed capability and there is a 1-2 second delay. In many situations the delay would be imperceivable but since our worship center and our atrium (where we use the live video fee) are adjacent, the delay is noticeable. We can live with it, but I wish there was less delay. This probably will not be an issue for most users who do not need to send a live video/audio signal through Yodeck from a production control room.
A Game-Changer for Dynamic Content Management
Comments: Overall, Yodeck stands out for its valuable features, cost-effectiveness, and compatibility, making it the ideal choice for our digital signage needs.
Pros:
What I appreciate most about Yodeck is: Yodeck provides comprehensive resources that help us understand and make the most of the platform with Knowledge articles and videos. Yodeck offers a great value for the features we actually need, without unnecessary expenses. The tool also meets our requirements for security and compliance, ensuring our content is protected. Yodeck works seamlessly on Raspberry Pi, allowing us to leverage existing hardware.
Cons:
Occasionally, there can be delays of up to 10 minutes for content changes to take effect, which can be frustrating when we need real-time updates.
Alternatives Considered: Carousel and Scala
Reasons for Choosing Yodeck: Cost. Willingness to help review if product fit our needs. No hidden details and knowledge about product were open to public.
Switched From: Appspace
Reasons for Switching to Yodeck: Not flexible and platform specific and cost.
