Rise Vision is awesome. I love the platform.

Pros

Rise Vision is very powerful if you take the time to learn it. Its free, all you pay for is addons and storage. I have had several restaurant menus up and running for almost a year with little issue.
The screens connect easily and it doesn't take a lot of resources to run the software.

Cons

There is definitely a learning curve with Rise Vision, but if you take the time to learn it, it is very powerful.

Very good product

We are very satisfied with the product. We use this software to broadcast the content of internal activities to come on 10 screens inside our buildings. We even have one in a secondary school near us which allows us to promote our establishment.

Pros

The site as a good and simple interface. Even the basic functions allow us to make very nice information panels. With a paid experience account get even better with the templates and other tools provided.

Cons

We did not find the possibility of making a presentation easily used by a sub-company.

I'm happy to hear you're very satisfied!

Great product. Good price. Easy to use

I use the program since it is a free trial require constant internet (once your computer off, to reload you need Internet). Overtime a pro (paid version) available you can work it offline. You can upload and modify right on your phone. Very very easy to use. The help on you tube is great

Pros

Extremely easy to use,drag and drop. Easy customize

Cons

Not the software. Microsoft upgrade keep on pop up thus you need a pro version. Your hard drive need to be larger then 32g to accommodate constant automatically upgrade from Microsoft

Flexible and Responsive

I have found Rise Vision to be extremely flexible with our needs, responsive to our inquiries and quick to develop a Presentation when one was suggested. They really seem genuinely interested in being there for their clients. I have no complaints!

Pros

The Rise Vision Presentation Templates are generally easy to use and adapt to our needs. If we ever have a question or need, they respond very quickly to questions or service tickets.

Cons

It would be nice if there existed the ability to adjust certain aspects of the presentation - image size, location of text, etc.

Great Product, Great Value, Requires some intermediate knowledge to really utilize it well.

Pros

The ability to send different signals to different displays and use different schedules at different times of day was great. It allowed us to use critical employee communication in mornings and evenings as well as visual advertising the rest of the day. Linking up with google docs and goodle calendar is very useful as well. We were able to give people access to a google sheet for them to make changes and they didn't have to learn the rise software or do any real media creation.

Cons

Designing content was less than ideal. Generally what happened is we would design content in some other media format (I would use Gimp a lot) and then set that as the background and only actually apply an Item for the information that changed, for example, I had an employee birthday screen and everything on the screen was all one image file except the list of employees who were updated via a google drive. This also was handy when other departments wanted to do some advertising/communication because I could just tell them the resolution to make the image and I only had to upload a single image instead of trying to have them create content or make me do it.

Employee Cafeteria

We use Rise Vision for our employee cafeteria at our production facility. It is very eye-catching and our employees rely on it when they visit our facility.
This is our first digital signage.
We are piloting this to see if we may use it for employee announcements plant-wide.

Pros

I like the scheduling capabilities on Rise Vision. I can update the schedule weekly (and if I do it correctly), I can let it play on its own.

Cons

I wish the graphic editing capabilities were a little friendlier. I would like to see more editing functions similar to using powerpoint.

Response from Rise Vision

Appreciate the feedback Wyatt!

I'm glad you find schedules handy, that's definitely one of the best features of Rise Vision.

Stay tuned for a few better editing features.

Good once you overcome the learning curve

Overall this product works as advertised and would be recommended for any sort of business or institution that has an array of digital signs across its campus.

Pros

This software allows you to centrally manage your digital signage without having to go on site to install or update content. The schedule and presentation menus give you flexibility in how often and on how many screens content will be displayed.

Cons

The actual content design tool is a little hard to use at first. It doesn't allow as much control as other design software, but is adequate for most purposes. If you have legacy content that was created using an older version of the software there may be some formatting problems when imported into the new UI.

Pros

Ease of setup. Reliability. Remote management.

Cons

I've been hoping for that login to a web site so I would not have to manually do it.

School Announcements Made Easy

We use RiseVision in a 7-12 Public school setting on monitors that display in our common areas to post important announcements for all students and staff to see. It is used a part of the Digital Design curriculum and students help with the daily updates of announcements. It is easy to integrate with a shared Google Slide file as well as embed code from other sites.

Pros

I like the ability to quickly edit a presentation and add them to a schedule in a matter of minutes.

Cons

The thing we like the least is the limitations of design size on some of the templates.

Response from Rise Vision

Thanks for the review Lisa! I sent you an email to better understand the issue you're running into with the templates. Hopefully we can get that addressed for you in a future update :)

Ease of Rise Vision

My experience with Rise Vision is one hundred percent positive! I would recommend this program to everyone and anyone!

Pros

Rise Vision is very user friendly, easy to learn and easy to manage. After the improvement to Rise Vision this past year it is even easier and faster to use. I work in a high school with multiple screens throughout the building and many people have commented on how nice it is to see all the different announcements etc. up for viewing. We have them in the main hall, counseling and the cafeteria which makes it accessible for students and staff to view. Again the program is easy to manage and very useful.

Cons

I have not had any bad experiences while using Rise Vision.

Rise Vision Works for my Not-For-Profit

We began using in the summer of 2017. We operate multiple media servers at several locations.
Overall we have been very happy with the product and the service. It serves our needs very well and support has been good the few times we needed it.

Pros

I found the software very easy for us to use. We currently have 14 media servers displaying various content at different locations. It is very easy to manage our displays.

Cons

Carterville Junior High

Overall, we have been very pleased. Like any product, there are a few things we'd like to see different, but we are very pleased with the product.

Pros

The vividness of the displays and "pop" they have on our tv's is impressive. It is like an ad one might see on tv. This is not a fancy power point. It is on a whole different level. The slides can vary and be unique which gets the attention of our students and prevents each slide from looking basically the same. You can do some really neat things.

Cons

I gave ease of use 3 of 5 stars because it is not an intuitive platform. One cannot just start clicking around and figure it out like you can with a lot of apps or other software, even if you are a bit tech savvy. It takes some time to learn how to manipulate and use the system. Once you learn it though, the ease of use would be 5 of 5 and it doesn't take months to learn. However, there is some time up front that has to be invested, a lot of trial and error, phone calls to support or other users until you get the hang of it. If the primary user were to leave the organization, it is not something that could just continue quickly without fail unless you had crossed trained someone.

Response from Rise Vision

Hi Jeff, I appreciate all the helpful feedback. I think you'll like a number of the improvements we have this year to make it easier for end users to pick up Rise Vision quickly.

We are providing students with current, up-to-date information about school and everything they need to know.

Pros

I like that we have at least 2 different uses for the software. We are able to run slides all day and also show a schedule on a different tv. I like the ease with which I can update the slide show and I don't have to go to too many steps.

Cons

It would be nice if I could customize the first slide. It seems to be locked.

Useful Tool for the School Setting

Our overall experience with Rise Vision has been great. We started out with the free version which was very functional and have now moved to the paid version. We use Rise Vision for our daily announcements as well as for our concession stands menus.

Pros

Cons

When entering and editing information on the text widget window it cannot be expanded to full screen and the save and cancel buttons are unavailable if the screen is dragged too far down.

Easy digital signage that anyone can update

We implemented RiseVision to allow for digital signage to be synchronized in different offices all over the world, with a small overhead. It did the job well, and was works as intended.

Pros

Runs on modest hardware, reasonable costs given the value.

Cons

Clunky editor for changing beyond a slideshow, the technical aspects are all there to make it appear differently on different screens, but that intimidated some of my less technical users.

Depending your expectations, this software ticks most boxes.

Very few software(s) out there are perfect, each requiring something to be changed/altered to increase its value. Although Rise Vision is not perfect, once you learn the "oddity's" of its imperfection, you can see why it is one of the better options for "web-based digital signage".

Pros

-Ease of Use
-The Animated Templates
-Remote (Web) Access...even from a cell phone

Cons

-Not as many Portrait Templates as there are Landscape
-Google Slide Presentation(s), "play to finished/end" does not work in intended. Have to change the time to display to the "# of slides x seconds you want each slide displayed".
-GUI could use some re-tooling

A great display tool!

We use RiseVision to update the TV screens we have located throughout our venue. It is a very helpful tool to maintain these displays, and in turn really helps to boost the overall look of our venue. It is also useful for directional wayfinding, advertisements, displaying ticket prices and highlighting our upcoming events. Our TV's are a key component in our venue and Rise Vision certainly helps.

Pros

The software is fairly easy to maneuver, and works well for what we use it for in our venue. It makes digital displays and signage easy to update and manage for our multiple events and day-to-day displays.

Cons

I feel like setting schedules could be easier/more user friendly. Sometimes I think I set a schedule correctly, and it turns out that it did not work and did not switch when it was supposed to.

Best option for FREE

Rive Vision has given us the ability to have a free bulletin system in our school district in order to put dynamic content up on a screen free of charge. The free version is a little clunky but nothing that can't be easily mastered. We have recommended this system to other schools as it has served us well.

Pros

We have a free account which is what we like most about the software. We're a small public school in the middle of nowhere (Vermont) with no budget for this sort of thing. We found Rise Vision online and implemented it onto a series of free TV's that were Donated to our school. This software allows us to have a professional looking bulletin with loads of functionality once you learn how to setup your slides correctly

Cons

The initial setup was tricky as the default resolution did not match our TV's I was able to correct this issue. Being that we use the free version, we use a lot of HTML in order to get the look and elements that we need - these do not always preview properly in the system but look fine in the final output
