Choosing the right hardware
4 min
the hardware you choose can make a big difference to how reliable and easy to manage your digital signage setup is there isn't one perfect option for every business the right choice will depend on where your screens are going, what content you want to show and how much control you need over the setup start with how the screen will be used before choosing hardware, think about the environment the screen will be running in for example will the screen be running all day? is it customer facing or business critical? will someone be nearby if something goes wrong? do you need the screen to turn on and launch fusion signage automatically? are you showing simple images and videos, or more complex content? do you already have screens you want to reuse? these questions can help narrow down whether a commercial display, system on chip screen, external media player or consumer device is the best fit check compatibility before purchasing not every screen or media player will support fusion signage, even if it uses a familiar operating system before purchasing new hardware, check our installation guides or confirm compatibility with your reseller or the fusion signage team ask your reseller if you're planning a new rollout or aren't sure which hardware to choose, your reseller or integrator is a great place to start they can help recommend hardware based on your environment, budget and signage requirements, while also making sure the devices you choose are compatible with fusion signage looking for something else? we canβt wait to hear about it reach out to our sunshiney support and we'll be in touch in a flash
