Solutions

The solutions feature allows partners (resellers) of NoviSign to add another option to the Studio menu, called “Solutions”. The idea behind this option is to provide more information and get more leads from customers about programs or features they would like to add or purchase.

Solutions new option

Once a user clicks the “Solutions” menu option (which once you, as a partner, enable it, will appear for all of your users), it will take him to the Solutions tab, which will appear in his personal settings page. There he may get some more information while observing each solution you added and not only: s/he will also be able to request more information by submitting a form there that will be sent as an email to the email address which you have defined in the settings for that particular solution.

My Solutions

Creating a solution to be added to your solutions is easy. That is done through your Admin tool. In the left menu, just hover above the “Utilities” last option and then click the “Solutions”. In the Solutions page you can add, edit or delete an existing solution.

Solutions menu option

You need to provide title and description for the solution. Also, you can add an image through URL or embed a media through some HTML code. You can create a media roller (some call it “slider”) of several images to rotate. And lastly, you can add a contact us box (you define the email address to receive the email once a customer submits this form to get more information about this product / solution).

Everything in digital signage has a solution 🙂
