NoviSign Alternative

NoviSign leans heavily into interactive kiosk features — touchscreen menus, self-service check-in, forms. That's real, useful functionality if that's what your screens need to do. A lot of signage deployments don't need any of it: the screen just needs to show a menu board, a schedule, a promotion, or an announcement on a loop, with no one touching it.

How CastWize is different

CastWize is built for that scheduled-content case specifically: a multi-zone canvas for images, video, text, webpages, live streams, and widgets, scheduling by day, time, or date, and remote screenshot, reboot, and refresh so you can manage a fleet without walking up to each screen. One flat rate — $5 per screen per month — with every feature included, no tier to unlock touchscreen support you're not going to use. First screen free for 30 days, no card required.

What to actually compare

Check NoviSign's own site for their current plan names and pricing — this page compares what each product is built for, not numbers that go stale.

Who this fits

If your screens need to accept touch input, run a self-service kiosk flow, or collect form submissions, NoviSign's feature set is built for that directly. If your screens just need to show content on a schedule — a menu board, a lobby display, a waiting-room screen — CastWize does that one job without the extra surface area.

Everything included at $5 per screen

No tier unlocks any of this — every screen gets all of it:

• Images, video, text, webpages, YouTube, live streams, and Google Docs, Sheets and Slides
• Live widgets: weather, clock, countdowns, news feeds, QR codes
• Multi-zone layouts and video walls
• Scheduling by day, time and date, plus ad cycles
• Queue management: a take-a-number kiosk and a live "Now serving" display
• Clients: separate workspaces for each business you run screens for, on one bill
• Media Library with folders and one-click Google Drive import
• Remote screenshot, refresh and reboot
• Alerts by email, Slack and webhook
• Analytics with CSV and PDF export
• Audit log, API keys, Google sign-in and two-factor authentication

How to switch from NoviSign

Most single-location setups move over in an afternoon, without taking a screen dark:

1. Download the images and videos you use from NoviSign, or keep them in Google Drive.
2. Create a CastWize account and add them to the Media Library — upload them, or import straight from Google Drive.
3. Install the CastWize player on a device you already have — Android, Windows, macOS, Linux or Raspberry Pi. If your current player only runs NoviSign's software, a budget Android TV box works.
4. Pair the screen, then rebuild your playlists and schedules. Preview shows exactly what each screen will play.
5. Run both side by side on one screen for a few days, then move the rest and cancel the old plan.

Your first screen is free for 30 days with no credit card, so you can do the whole trial run before paying anything.
