## 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

### "A Reliable and Cost-Effective Digital Signage Solution" — 5.0/5

> **Hugo** | *4 December 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I liked most about Xibo is its flexibility and reliability as a digital signage platform. The cloud management console is intuitive, making it easy to schedule and update content across multiple displays without technical complexity. Layout creation is straightforward, and the library of widgets allows for dynamic and engaging presentations.
> 
> **Cons**: What I liked least about Xibo is that some configuration steps feel more technical than expected, especially during the initial setup of players and network permissions. The interface, while functional, can feel a bit dated in certain areas, and new users may need time to fully understand the layout editor and scheduling options.&#10;&#10;Additionally, updates between versions occasionally introduce compatibility issues with existing players, requiring manual intervention. More built-in templates and a smoother onboarding experience would make the platform even stronger.
> 
> My overall experience with Xibo has been very positive. It’s a stable and flexible digital signage platform that becomes very easy to manage once the initial setup is done. The value for money is excellent, you get a powerful feature set without the high licensing costs often seen in other solutions.&#10;&#10;Customer support has also been solid. Responses are helpful, and the documentation and community forums make it easy to find answers when needed.&#10;&#10;In short, Xibo is a dependable, cost-effective choice for organizations that need centralized control over multiple screens.

### "Review from old tunisian Customer" — 4.0/5

> **Aziz** | *8 April 2026* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Scalability, multi-platform, easy to deploy, easy licensing management, low performance requirement.
> 
> **Cons**: Complexity of the web interface. It is not possible to know the time of the displays to be sure of the synchro. I asked for support to install Xibo on Samsung Tizen, I didn't get an answer. Then I was spammed for weeks by an AI on my emails. Eventually, I got the Samsung model wrong and lost a lot of money.
> 
> Very good in general, I have installed Xibo with a few clients for more than 10 years now without problems. It's not my core business.
