    Now, why does Digital Signage need a Content Management System?

    The main purpose of digital signage is to deliver the required content to its audience. Content management hence helps the right content to reach the right audience, at the right time, and in the right mode. Again, your business can be having digital signages at multiple locations, which makes it challenging for the business to manage them remotely. To overcome these challenges, a cloud-based content management system is required. Many mobile device management software solutions provide the add-on feature of Mobile Content Management, which allows to upload, organize and distribute the content to digital signage from a common dashboard, remotely.

    Scalefusion MDM solution provides a very intuitive MCM which seamlessly manage, control and secure the content on digital signages.

    So how does Scalefusion Mobile Content Management work?

    It enables you to manage content and its distribution in three simple steps from the dashboard.

    • Deploy: From the uploaded content, admin can remotely publish the files as well as the whole folders, seamlessly, from the dashboard to the devices or the group of devices.

    • Support: Scalefusion MCM Support Multiple File format like doc, docx, ppt, pptx, xls, xlsx, pdf, avi, mkv, 3gp, mp4, mp3, wav, 3ga, m4a, aac, ogg, amr & gif files. This makes it very convenient for the companies to develop content in best of the above formats, which can showcase their product(s) or service(s) in the best way and get it published on the digital signages.

    Scalefusion Mobile Content Management (MCM) works on a dispatcher and receiver model. The admin works as a dispatcher who pushes the content after uploading on the dashboard, and the enrolled mobile devices are the recipients that receive the pushed content.

    The other additional features required to upload and manage the content for efficient working of digital signage are:

    • Lockdown in a single app or multi-app mode – By this mode, digital signage use is restricted to only those app(s) selected by the admin.
    • Remote troubleshooting – Remote Cast and Control enables to access the device screen remotely and help the user to solve the issues in real-time.
