Build and customize

Dashboards are made from widgets. Add the content your audience needs, arrange it for the target screen, and test the layout before it goes live.

Run on displays

Compare browser kiosks, managed hardware, dotKiosk, Chromecast, Fire TV, and Raspberry Pi before buying or rolling out screens.

Troubleshoot quickly

Use the decision tree when pairing fails, an iframe is blank, a magic link is missing, or a screen shows stale content after restart.
