PosterBooking is a support-focused alternative to Play Digital Signage that offers a free plan.
While we wholeheartedly believe in the quality of our product and service, we know we’re not your only option. We also know that every company is unique and every digital signage solution has its own pros and cons. Rather than bashing the competition, we're simply here to show you all the options and how they all stack up, so you can pick the digital signage that's right for your company. With that in mind, let's jump into how PosterBooking Digital Signage measures up to others in the market across five must-have areas.
Like many other digital signage solutions on the market, PosterBooking Digital Signage has divided its pricing into four different plans, each with its own unique features. Tiered pricing systems can be a pro or a con depending on your company. It can provide budgetary flexibility where you can purchase a lower plan, but it can also end up costing more if you require features only included in higher-priced plans.
PosterBooking Digital Signage’s plans start with their free plan. The free plan includes 10 screens, though they do have a watermark. One up from the free plan is the Basic Plan which is $29 per month for up to 10 screens. The Business Pro Plan is the next step up and comes in at $297 per month, but includes unlimited screens. Finally, their top tier plan is the Enterprise Plus Plan which is $675 per month and again includes unlimited screens.
One unique aspect of this is that PosterBooking’s pricing includes a certain number of screens or unlimited screens rather than being priced per screen, per month.
Learn moreResponsive customer support is essential with digital signage solutions. This is because you may need assistance in critical situations, such as content not displaying correctly or hardware malfunctions. Or you may just have a question. Either way, a support team that promptly addresses these issues can prevent significant disruptions.
PosterBooking Digital Signage has several options for receiving support including sending an email, joining the WhatsApp community, engaging with their live chat, referencing their FAQs section or tutorials, and scheduling a free demonstration. PosterBooking Digital Signage does have a few additional support options that many of its competitors do not offer, like the creation of a WhatsApp community.
Learn moreContent development is one of the most important aspects of digital signage solutions. After all, digital signage isn’t very useful without some stellar content. When it comes to content creation at PosterBooking Digital Signage, what sort of content you can display largely depends on the plan you choose.
As you might expect, the free plan only allows you to create simple playlists with basic elements. As you move up in plans, the Basic Plan enables you to schedule a playlist and includes video wall support. The Business Pro Plan is where the content features really begin where you’ll get unlimited storage, unlimited uploads including 4K, a branded dashboard, background music, and more.
Unfortunately, PosterBooking Digital Signage reserves many of the content features that most people expect to be included in the standard plans for higher-priced plans. Though PosterBooking Digital Signage is not alone in doing this in the industry, some competitors do not put these features behind an additional cost.
Since hardware and software components have to work together in order to display your digital signage, compatibility is crucial. PosterBooking Digital Signage has kept this in mind, so their software will work with most mainstream media players including those with the following operating systems: Amazon, Raspberry Pi, Android, Windows, MacOS, Tizen, and LG webOS.
They are also always adding more which we appreciate as the market is always changing. We also like that PosterBooking Digital Signage does not require you to use a proprietary media player like some other solutions in the industry do.
Learn moreSometimes it takes more than one person to manage your digital signage which is why a majority of digital signage solutions offer team functionality features.
At PosterBooking Digital Signage, they do offer team functionality, but reserve the majority of these features for their Business Pro and Enterprise Plans. The Enterprise Plan enables you to access a user audit history and add unlimited users.
This means those with a team behind them, should consider opting for the Enterprise Plan when considering PosterBooking Digital Signage as their digital signage solution.

More than 10 years, 2500+ organizations, and thousands of live screens is why we know we’re great at what we do.
At Play Digital Signage, we were excited to dig deep into what sets our competitors apart, all to bring you the best insights. To do this right, we dove in headfirst, testing them firsthand just as someone seeking a digital signage solution, like you, might. We've talked about the details earlier, but now let's get into our researchers' overall experience exploring PosterBooking.
Like its competitors, there are things that PosterBooking Digital Signage has done really well and others that could be improved. Overall, PosterBooking Digital Signage has made it easy to get started since they offer a free plan. This can be excellent for small businesses looking to get their feet wet with digital signage.
PosterBooking Digital Signage excels in the areas of support and compatibility. We also find it unique that they price their plans to include a certain number of screens (or unlimited screens) rather than pricing it per screen, per month.
As far as areas for improvement, if you are looking for extensive content development and team functionality features, it is important to note that you’ll have to opt for the higher-priced plans at PosterBooking Digital Signage. This could make PosterBooking Digital Signage outside of your company’s budget depending on your situation.
