VISIT VISIOSIGN AT THE NEC SHOWCASE 2013

CPHBUSINESS

I am happy to recommend InfoBoard® to other organisations.

At Cphbusiness we use InfoBoard® to communicate with students and visitors to our departments. We show various practical types of information so that the visitor finds the department easily – and there are fewer queries to reception. We greet visitors and give information about, for instance, exam times and rooms, any lost property, room changes, opening hours of the canteen, sale of books, study cards, impending meetings etc. We also stream our advertising film to the screen so that it can run during various meetings. In this way we also use InfoBoard® as part of our general branding, and the current students are our best ambassadors. I am happy to recommend InfoBoard® to other educational institutions.

QUEEN INGRID'S HOME

It is a big building we are in, and it can be difficult to reach everybody.

At Queen Ingrid’s Home we need to be able to inform residents, relatives and staff more efficiently – it is a big building we are in, and it can be difficult to reach everybody. On the screens we publicise a wide mix of information, as our target group is very wide. It can be everything from working procedures, procedures/instructions, activities, birthdays, a new member of staff or a new resident, signs aimed at people from outside, house newspaper, menu etc. Pictures from activities in the house and ‘smile of the day’ (a little positive quote, column or joke) are, however, the most popular. InfoBoard® as a communication tool has given us a better means of achieving branding in a positive way. In this way we are sending out a signal that ‘we have it under control’ and our visitors find it easier and quicker to navigate around the building. The system has made a vast difference to our staff and residents, and it is now easier to remember, for instance, the activities of the day. In addition, it is easier to disseminate working procedures and other information, and they become more visible. We are exceedingly pleased with the screens, which are easy to update and we get good support from VisioSign.

MARSTAL NAVIGATION SCHOOL

We save a certain amount of time by not having to run around with new notices all the time.

At Marstal Navigation School we have implemented InfoBoard® from VisioSign in order to make it easier to keep both students and guests up to date. We save a considerable amount of resources by not having to run around putting up notices all the time. At the same time, we have been able to smartened up the entrances, by removing posters and other paper notices and replacing them with a more branded and uniform image. At the end of the day, it does looks much more professional.
We use the screens to show details of our courses and other daily information about guests, events, canteen menus etc. In addition, we have regular features with itineraries, news from Maritime Denmark and AIS information relating to shipping. These features are accessed by touch on the screen and create a great deal of interest. With InfoBoard® as a communication and information tool our guests feel more welcome, when they can see they are featured on the screen right inside the door.
Furthermore, we find internally that we have easier access to the daily stream of information from the various departments. In conclusion, we are very happy with our InfoBoard® solutions, both the standard display screen as well as the touch-screen. The implementation process has been remarkably painless. We have chosen solutions which allow us to limit updating of the system to just a few employees, and that works well. I am happy to recommend InfoBoard® to other organisations.

ARLA FOODS AMBA

A communication channel aimed directly at our employees

"The objective of using InfoBoard® has been to establish a communication channel aimed directly at all employees, regardless of where, or in what capacity they work. In an organisation such as Arla, our colleagues in production do not have the same access to the intranet as the managers, and it is therefore important to have a channel for internal communication which provides instant access. In Arla, InfoBoard® is used to deliver both local and corporate news, whilst simultaneously showing Arla advertisements on the screens.

We have a high degree of decentralisation with regard to updating our InfoBoards®. The screen is designed with a standard template, but it is up to the individual plant or office to publicise the information. However, it is our standard practise that the three latest news items from Corporate Communications are always shown. It is clear to us that video is the most eye catching of the various content formats, we therefore take maximum advantage of showing advertising films, whilst also sharing additional Arla information in other areas of the screens.

InfoBoard® has greatly assisted in creating an homogenous branding experience on arrival at any of our dairies or offices. This wide distribution of company news further underlines our inclusive and progressive ideologies in terms of our relationship with our staff. InfoBoard® has especially helped our colleagues in production and other operations areas to acquire a greater level of understanding about what is happening in the organisation and how Arla continues to expand the international marketplaces in which we operate. I am from these observations very pleased to recommend InfoBoard® from VisioSign."

FLSMIDTH

We have become more connected – both with regard to general business as well as with in-house news.

“We had a requirement to disseminate more information to our employees relating to new orders, initiatives; brochures and products as well as new joiners and events, which we have now fulfilled. We also post information regarding impending visits to our offices for example, and we brand corporate news globally. With such a variety of information on InfoBoard® there are always some items of interest for everyone, and the system makes it so easy to be well briefed about what is happening at FLSmidth. This is definitely a bonus both internally and externally. Our employees have become more up-to-date about what is happening in the company, both locally and globally. Simultaneously, we have become more connected – both with regard to business as well as with in-house news. The solution is easily accessible, and we have had tremendous help from VisioSign during the entire process. I would, without a doubt recommend InfoBoard® to others. It is also through us in Denmark that our offices in Australia, India, Germany, USA and the Czech Republic have installed InfoBoard® - and this has helped to make us much more of an international corporate community”.

RBKC

The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea

Excellent! Intuitive and easy to use

"The purpose of introducing InfoBoard® was to facilitate staff being kept informed of National, Council-wide, departmental and floor news and information in line with the refurbishment of Kensington Town Hall. Other types of information published on the screens are; national news, new ways of working information relating to changes in the Town Hall, weather/travel information, any news relating to the work-force. Travel info is always of interest being located in Central London. It is not intended as way-finding device, but the professional look and feel of the product gives the Town Hall the desired appearance of a professional, effective workplace.

InfoBoard® offers a valuable information source; it also provides visual stimulus in the office area and is a focal point for staff. Checking the national news, weather, travel and “what’s new!” has become second nature to most staff.

The user interface is excellent! Intuitive and easy to use. Customer support is also excellent! There is always someone willing to spend as much time as necessary to resolve problems. I would say the staff are professional and courteous, but with the ability to communicate effectively at all levels they are a pleasure to work with. The product (InfoBoard®) is the simplest in concept and design of all the digital signage products we looked at, but probably the most effective and comprehensive in terms of delivering exactly what we want. If I was asked would I recommend InfoBoard® to a friend or associate, the answer would be - Definitely!”
