Oracle relies on Signagelive and Insteo to power Social Media at live events
We are proud of our partners and where they use Signagelive to power their digital signage networks. Over the last few days Insteo have deployed several Signagelive powered social media networks at live events across the world. Jim Nista, CEO of Insteo wrote to us to explain why Signagelive is their platform of choice:
“Over the past two days Insteo has had an amazing schedule with live events around the globe for numerous Fortune 500 clients. One of Insteo’s solutions is running live Social Media Content for with Twitter, Facebook, Photos and more. You like something on Facebook, and it’s on the Digital Sign, LIVE!
We offer our Live Social Media walls either as a custom fully managed service, or with event partners who handle everything for us. The multiple overlapping events over the past few days are not only unique because of the crazy schedule, but because this is the first time we’ve been able to recommend the Digital Signage Software all of these screens should run.
See, when we’re running Live Signage for events, it only makes sense Insteo should choose a software company whose name includes the word “live.” We use Signagelive for events because it allows us to manage these worldwide events from a central location, and be sure that the content we need to be on the screen goes up as fast as the client needs it there.
Insteo’s Social-API and HTML5 content work perfectly inside Signagelive – they have made the intelligent choice to offer a Webkit based rendering engine. For the non-nerds out there that means when we write our content for web standards it works. We can assure our clients that when they post on their social network, the content will be on the screen fast.
We don’t always get to specify the software our content should run on, and sometimes live events are a challenge only because we’re forced to rewrite our code and Apps to fit a system that isn’t based on modern web standards. This adds, cost, complexity and time – three things that don’t fit a hectic live event schedule.
Obviously we do more than live events, but if there’s a solution that stands up to the insane demands of needing content to ‘work perfectly immediately’ – we know it will work great under everyday situations. Knowing the software will just work means my team can concentrate not on technology, but the content, branding, and audience experience.”
Thanks to Jim for taking the time to share his Signagelive success, it’s great to have true partners.
