So, what differentiates digital signage from an everyday billboard? The biggest differences are ease and variety. Digital signs can be updated from almost any computer or device in any location through a wireless connection! Regular static billboards constantly need to be updated manually which takes manpower and time. Digital signs require specialized setup, but only need to be erected once! Once they are connected virtually, they are good to go!
