## Reviews

### "Xibo just runs efforlessly once you set it up" — 5.0/5

> **Faisal** | *7 January 2026* | Restaurants | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Xibo is a fantastic digital signage platform that offers flexibilty with cloud hosting and self-hosted version on various platforms. It offers great features, solid documentation and support if needed all at a good value.
> 
> **Cons**: There is a bit of a learning curve to it when you are new to the platform. However, there are good documentations to guide you through your setup.
> 
> I have been using Xibo on and off for many years, since version 1.8 over a decade ago. It continiously improves with more features and stability updates and the team are very helpful if you ever need support. I use a selfhost version that runs without any hiccups effortlessly. It is a set and forget platform that you will not worry about missing a beat.

### "A simple and reliable communication tool" — 5.0/5

> **Ryan** | *30 June 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Xibo has made it really straightforward for us to present college news and key information across the school. The system is genuinely easy to use, even for staff with minimal IT experience. We really appreciate the flexibility of running our own on-site server and managing our screens using Android sticks, which keeps things reliable and cost-effective. The web interface is intuitive, and scheduling content or updating screens takes just a few clicks. Overall, Xibo gives us a simple, effective way to keep everyone informed with minimal hassle.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes the initial setup can be a bit fiddly, especially when configuring the Android sticks and connecting them to the server for the first time. There have also been occasions where updates or new layouts take a little longer than expected to sync to all the screens.
> 
> Overall, our experience with Xibo has been very positive. It’s given us an efficient way to share news and updates around the college, and the ability to manage everything from a central point has saved us a lot of time. The system is reliable and easy for staff to pick up, even those who aren’t particularly technical. Any issues we’ve had have generally been easy to resolve, and the flexibility of using an on-site server with Android sticks has fitted our needs really well. Xibo has become an essential part of how we communicate with staff and students across the school.

### "Nothing else comes close." — 5.0/5

> **Jon** | *10 September 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The flexibility; the ability to schedule .htz and dynamic overlays, which have proved invaluable, giving me opportunities I haven't seen before in scheduling software - I've been doing this since 1989. The Android player is suoer stable.
> 
> **Cons**: Black burst between videos on Windows player really needs resolving as it makes Xibo unsuitable for a commercial environment when there is a requirement for a Windows player. We've found the transition from CMS 3 to 4 quite difficult as it appeared top have a fundamentally different work flow from what we are used to, but everything is settling down now.
> 
> Started using Xibo primarily for large retail estates around 4 years ago, after trying pretty much everything else - including in-house CMS in the 90s. Xibo gives us the flexibility to adapt to different scenarios and requirements, which makes it ideal for prototyping. The automation elements mean we can run large networks without constant intervention.

### "Xibo provides an excellent service for what we need" — 5.0/5

> **Julian** | *4 December 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of display and screen management in an easy to use CMS. As it is cloud based i can make changes and additions to content remotely where ever i may be based. It is also good value to money compared to other services used by our university.
> 
> **Cons**: We have encounter bugs and issues with the hardware which mean that it does need maintenance (simple restarts most often) more often that i can attend to sometimes. We have just updated our setup to the latest version of the android boxes so hopefully it is more on our end that the system.
> 
> Xibo provides an excellent service for what we need, showcasing what we need to promote and advertise products/events to our student market.

### "Excellent value product for digital signage." — 5.0/5

> **Chris** | *7 January 2026* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use and reliability. &#10;Remote web access to update screen contents and simple rule settings for the use of added / retired media makes day to day use really fast.
> 
> **Cons**: Lack of ability to set defaults for values.&#10;Working on complex layouts for grids of data being fed in is really fiddly and prone to not saving successfully.
> 
> Excellent. Feels like the people who write it care about it.&#10;Choice made based on price but stayed with it because it just works. &#10;Have integrated with FAW score and match feeds and run two screens promoting football and social events.
