## Reviews

### "Xibo is a great self-hosting signage solution" — 5.0/5

> **Glen** | *22 July 2025* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Xibo is super easy to use. After looking at the cost of other solutions, which are largely moving to cloud-only solutions so they can lock you into to monthly fees, being able to create a Linux Virtual Machine on-prem (for free\!) is an amazing alternative. I can create our weekly signage very easily using Xibo and since I cast to Windows computers behind displays, the licensing cost was also free.
> 
> **Cons**: I originally bought the licensing to have Xibo talk directly to my Samsung TVs but eventually it stopped working well and became a headache, and troubleshooting got harder. So I switched to using Windows computers behind the TVs and that really helped because you get better troubleshooting information from these, and it just seems to work better.&#10;&#10;I do sometimes have issues with the Windows computers showing the desktop bar on top of the signage, things like that, but the more I work on tweaking the computers, the less that is a thing. The App tries its best to keep itself online and on top but could possibly be a bit better there.
> 
> Easy to setup the Virtual Machine if you have basic Linux experience&#10;Minimal maintenance required other than trimming out your old files and updating the VM periodically&#10;Easy to use for the end users

### "Why Xibo Self-Hosting Works Perfectly for Our Office Displays" — 4.0/5

> **Rick** | *4 December 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Xibo’s self-hosting capabilities are a game-changer for SMBs. The platform provides excellent control, enabling our technicians to easily manage office digital displays running on Google TV OS. This flexibility simplifies deployment and ongoing maintenance, making it an ideal solution for our needs.
> 
> **Cons**: One area where Xibo could improve is its integration with Power BI. While there is a connector that uses token-based authorization, it relies on a dedicated widget within the layout designer. At times, this widget stops refreshing layouts even though the connector remains authenticated, forcing us to manually refresh displays since the auto-refresh feature does not resolve the issue.
> 
> Overall, I’m very pleased with our decision to use Xibo. The setup process was straightforward, and pairing all the TVs was quick and hassle-free.

### "Reliable digital signage software but long learning curve" — 4.0/5

> **Richard** | *6 February 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Xibo is robust digital signage software. You can rely on it. It always work smoothly with the recommend hardware. The great thing about Xibo is that it's open source, so you're not dependent on a single provider.
> 
> **Cons**: The interface looks outdated and isn't very user-friendly. You need a manual to find your way around.
> 
> Overall, our experience has been positive. Recommended if you are looking for a solution for multiple screens. The learning curve is too steep for a single screen. Good value for money.

### "Using it is a bit frustrating." — 1.0/5

> **Daniel** | *11 June 2025* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to manage advertising screens remotely. There are no clear and concise instructions for scheduling campaigns or slides.
> 
> **Cons**: What I like the least is the difficulty of use and management.&#10;&#10;There are no clear and concise instructions for scheduling campaigns or slides. The tutorials are strange and confusing across the board. The management tool is not user-friendly at all, and there are many repeated concepts (such as the term "scheduling") that are not clearly explained.&#10;&#10;There is no option to allow some slides within the same campaign (for example, a monthly campaign) to expire before others, or to add new slides in the middle of a campaign (such as halfway through the month).&#10;&#10;It forces you to create an entirely new campaign every time something ends (or at least I can’t find any explanation on how to do otherwise).
> 
> Using it is a bit frustrating.  There are no clear and concise instructions for scheduling campaigns or slides. The platform lacks tutorials, user instructions, and an interface in Spanish

### "Solid Signage Solution" — 4.0/5

> **Stepan** | *4 December 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Xibo offers excellent value for money, especially considering its comprehensive feature set for digital signage management. The platform provides solid security with no vulnerabilities encountered during our deployment. Screen and display management capabilities work reliably and cover all essential needs for managing multiple displays across different locations.
> 
> **Cons**: The initial setup process can be somewhat complicated and requires technical knowledge to configure properly. Additionally, the authorize/deauthorize button for displays could be more intuitive – the current toggle behavior isn't immediately clear and can cause confusion when managing display permissions.
> 
> Overall, Xibo has proven to be a reliable and cost-effective digital signage solution. Once you get past the initial learning curve during setup, the system runs smoothly and provides all the necessary tools for effective display management. The platform delivers great value and meets our operational requirements well. We would recommend it to organizations looking for a capable signage system, though they should allocate sufficient time for the initial configuration phase.
