Buyer’s guide
Digital signage software in India: what to look for.
What you need, what it costs, and the questions to ask any vendor before you buy, written for Indian businesses.
A real SLX On Air screen in Studio mode.
The basics
Every digital signage setup has three parts.
A screen: any TV or monitor with HDMI will do. A media player: a small box that plugs into the screen and plays your content. Software: where you upload content and control the screens.
Many products charge for these separately, often with a monthly fee per screen. SLX On Air combines the player and software: you buy the SLX Smart Box once, and it runs free forever, with paid plans if you want more.
What to check
Questions to ask any vendor.
| Question | Why it matters | SLX On Air |
|---|---|---|
| Is there a monthly fee? | Monthly fees add up over the life of a screen. | No. The box is a one-time purchase; paid plans are 365 days of screen time, with nothing renewing on its own. |
| Are prices in rupees, with a GST invoice? | Dollar pricing and missing invoices cause problems at the accounts desk. | Yes. Prices in ₹, and a GST invoice with every order. |
| What happens when the internet drops? | A blank screen is worse than no screen. | Screens keep playing stored content, and update when the connection returns. |
| Can I update from my phone? | If only one person at a desk can update the screen, it goes stale. | Yes: the app, the web console, or email. |
| Can I prove an ad ran? | If you plan to sell screen time, advertisers will ask. | Yes, with Proof of Play on Pro. |
| Who fixes it, and how fast? | Signage fails quietly when support disappears. | Our team, by WhatsApp and email, with software and security updates for five years. |
