FrontFace: Digital Signage Software for Android

The FrontFace software is based on the Windows operating system and consists of two components: The FrontFace Player App, which drives the screens and plays content, and the FrontFace Assistant, which acts as content management system (CMS).

The FrontFace Player App is also available for the Android operating system, enabling a wide range of additional use cases, especially those that are very budget-oriented. Screens and TVs with built-in Android TV or low-cost Android-based set-top boxes are widely available at extremely competitive prices. This also includes the poular Amazon Fire TV devices which are supported by FrontFace as well. Even on a limited budget, it is possible to build a professional digital signage system!

With FrontFace, all common digital signage use cases and applications can be addressed, such as welcome screens, digital blackboards, bulletin boards, shopfloor boards and dashboard screens, or digital screens for information and advertising purposes. While the software comes with a broad set of built-in features, it is yet very easy to use. For special requirements, it can be simply extended with so-called plugins: Plugins are available e.g., for integrating calendar data from Exchange Servers, ICS feeds, or simply Excel spreadsheets, or for integrating systems such as Power BI.

FrontFace is the perfect choice for anyone looking for a powerful yet easy-to-use digital signage software, who does not want to be forced to use cloud-based products, and who wants maximum freedom in regards to hardware selection.

FrontFace for Android is available for USD $299.95 per screen (lifetime license) directly from mirabyte or one of its authorized resellers. A fully functional, free trial version can be downloaded for a thorough evaluation. Additionally, a special step-by-step quick start guide for using FrontFace on Android is available.
