Traffic

To enable the functioning of a widget it’s convenient to integrate with a data source, to that data is dynamically presented. One example of a popular digital signage widget is the ticker widget, which allows for an unlimited amount of scrolling information to be displayed anywhere on the screen, similar to the classic rolling text seen on major news stations.

There are also various digital signage templates and content widgets available that simplify the process of sharing dynamic content with audiences and are integral to professional and robust content management systems. These apps and widgets can help create, customize, and deploy content, and include features such as social media feeds, weather updates, news updates, and more.

Benefits

Here are some of the key benefits of using widgets on a digital signage solution:

  • Increased functionality: Widgets expand the functionality of the digital signage software, allowing users to access a wide range of features and tools. This can help businesses to create more engaging and dynamic content for their audiences.

  • Real-time updates: One of the key benefits of digital signage is its ability to display real-time information. Widgets take this to the next level by providing real-time updates to specific pieces of information on the signage. This can be useful for displaying things like stock prices, news updates, or social media feeds.

  • Improved wayfinding: Wayfinding widgets can be used to provide directions and information about specific locations within a building. This can help to improve the visitor experience and reduce confusion.

  • Enhanced messaging: Widgets can be used to display additional information about products or services, such as product descriptions or reviews. This can help to engage customers and encourage them to make purchases.

  • Increased engagement: Widgets can be used to create interactive content, such as games or quizzes, or even taking a selfie, that encourages audiences to engage with the signage. This can help to keep customers entertained and engaged, increasing the chances of them returning in the future.

  • Improved analytics: Widgets can be used to gather data about customer behavior and preferences. This information can then be used to optimize the digital signage content and improve the overall customer experience.

  • Cost-effective: Digital signage is generally more cost-effective than traditional print advertising. Widgets can help to further reduce costs by allowing businesses to update content quickly and easily, without the need for additional design or printing costs.

  • Boosts sales: Widgets can be used to promote specific products or services, and can be particularly effective at encouraging impulse purchases. This can help to boost sales and drive revenue for businesses.
