News & weather boards
Headlines and local weather, auto-refreshed, fill the quiet moments with useful info.
Available on the Business plan and up
News and weather boards make your screen useful even when you've nothing new to say. Set a location for live local weather and, if you like, a news or RSS source for rolling headlines. Both refresh on their own, so the board always has something worth glancing at.
It's a simple way to add value in reception areas, cafés and lobbies, guests check the weather to plan their day, or catch a headline while they wait, and your screen never sits blank. Mix it with your own messages and menus so the board does double duty.
