Compare

Where we win.
Where we don't.

A fair table. The gaps are marked as plainly as the wins.

The short version

A different shape of product.

They are cloud SaaS

Content lives on their servers. You pay monthly, per screen, forever. A lapsed card can dark your walls.

We are a local appliance

The panel holds its own content and serves its own console. Nothing leaves your network. Nothing recurs.

So we lack their scale tools

No fleet console, no proof of play, no SSO yet. Per-device management suits tens of screens, not thousands.

Feature by feature

Choose a cloud vendor when

You manage hundreds of sites centrally.

You must prove an advert played.

Procurement requires SOC 2 and SSO.

You want templates, not a blank grid.

Try it against your current bill.
