Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is digital signage?
Digital signage is a screen that displays dynamic content instead of static printed signs. They are digital signs where you control what appears on the screen remotely through software, so you can update pricing, promotions, announcements, or visuals without printing anything or physically visiting the location. Common uses include restaurant digital menus, retail advert displays, lobby directories, and corporate communication screens.
How much do business displays cost?
It varies wildly depending on your needs, which is why we must do a consultation first. For Samsung commercial displays, expect $1,000 to $3,000 per screen depending on size and model. A 65″ QB series (350 nit, 16/7 rated) runs around $1,100 to $1,300. A 65″ QH series (700 nit, 24/7 rated) runs $1,700 to $2,000. Installation adds $200 to $400 per screen. Content management software like Samsung VXT starts at $10 per screen per month ($120 annually) for the S Series. Total cost for a single-screen setup typically ranges from $1,500 to $4,000. Our consulting and planning services are free. You only pay for hardware and installation.
Do I need a separate media player?
No. Samsung’s commercial displays have built-in Tizen processors that run content directly on the screen. You upload content through cloud software and the screen handles playback. This eliminates the need for external computers, media boxes, or USB drives. It also means fewer cables and fewer points of failure.
How long does installation take?
Typically 2 to 3 hours per screen. This includes mounting the display, running power, connecting to WiFi, configuring the software, and loading initial content. Multi-screen installations or complex setups like video walls take longer.
Can I update content myself?
Yes. Samsung VXT and similar platforms let you log in from any computer or phone to change what’s on screen. You can update text, swap images, adjust schedules, or push new content to multiple locations simultaneously. No technical expertise required. Most updates take less than five minutes. VXT is currently considered to be one of the best digital signage software in 2025/2026.
What's Samsung VXT?
Samsung VXT is Samsung’s cloud-based content management software. It lets you create, schedule, and deploy content to your displays from anywhere. Features include drag-and-drop content creation, automated scheduling, remote monitoring, and analytics on what content plays when. It integrates directly with Samsung’s commercial displays and requires no additional hardware.
What's the difference between a commercial display and a regular TV?
Commercial displays are built for extended operation (16+ hours daily), have higher brightness (350 to 500+ nits versus 200 to 300 nits for consumer TVs), include built-in content management, have no visible branding on the bezel, and carry commercial warranties. Consumer TVs are designed for 4 to 6 hours of daily home use and will fail quickly in commercial settings.
Do you service areas outside Pittsburgh?
Yes. We install and support digital signage projects throughout North America. However, we have centralized support in specific cities around the US, like Pittsburgh.
A restaurant group operating four Pittsburgh locations spent excessive time coordinating menu changes across properties. When seasonal items rotated or prices adjusted, staff had to update materials at each location individually. This created periods where locations showed different pricing or offerings, confusing customers who visited multiple locations.
Digital menu boards synchronized across all four restaurants now display identical pricing and offerings. The manager updates menus once and changes appear everywhere immediately. When ingredients run out at specific locations, staff can remove items from that location’s display without affecting other properties.
The restaurants discovered they could test different promotional strategies by location and compare results. Weekend specials appear at all locations, but weekday promotions now vary based on each neighborhood’s customer patterns. This flexibility increased promotional effectiveness without requiring different printed materials for each location.
