PROS

Easy to use and I am able to customize.

CONS

When you click on a word the font and color changes. Some functions take several steps to do. I called for help and the person I spoke to did not seem like they wanted to help.

Metz @ Scranton Prep review

LOVE IT!! I believe that I was the first account with Metz Culinary Management to use Smartersign 15 yrs ago, when I was a director at Pocono Medical Center. We were the "guinea pigs" and loved everything about it, especially the support and immediate response we get when we have any issue. I have recommended it and had it installed at both Misericordia University and Scranton Prep, when I moved on to become a Manager there. I recommend it for the other accounts when we get new business--Excellent product and service! Also, a couple years ago, I was off one day from work with an unplanned hospitalization and was still able to change the signage from home for Superbowl Friday special activities! The students didn't even notice that I wasn't there. This is one of the best features--the ability to manage the software from anywhere. Thanks for everything!

PROS

Ease of use, support from the company The signage always looks nice and professional. Our client loves it! Plus the students get such a kick out of seeing their picture, when we post special events in the Servery. My client can send me a picture from a sporting event, or art show coming up, or whatever, and I can instantly post it on the TV for all to see. The students and Faculty really like the TVs--it brightens the whole place and brings it to life, in real time

CONS

Not easy to delete unused pictures that have been previously scheduled, but I need to call and get instruction on how to use that feature--I'm sure it can be done, but I just haven't learned how

Reason for choosing SmarterSign

Our company has occasionally chosen, for some other accounts that I have visited, just a regular TV with signage on a memory stick that has to be changed manually daily. I would not want that and do not recommend that for any new account. To me, it's not worth whatever money they are saving, because if someone is not there, who knows what has to be changed, the content will either be incorrect or the TV will be turned off. Plus, that approach takes way more time to manage--again, not worth it to me.

A very nice product to keep your members updated

Overall, this is a really nice piece of software that is very helpful for us in our communication efforts with our members throughout the year.

PROS

This software allows us, as a country club, to keep our members up to date on upcoming events going on around the Club. It also gives us the ability to showcase photos of our Club, which can be great when we have guests visiting the Club.

CONS

It can be difficult to update certain slides where you may schedule it to have a certain transition but once you click on something else it doesn't save that transition and you have to start back from scratch. There are some finnicky pieces to the software for sure.
