Navori Enhances Digital Experience for San Diego Humane Society
Marketers and adoption centre operators have been searching for a more innovative way to engage with both staff and patrons and Ground Support Labs (GSL), in collaboration with Navori, delivered an interactive digital solution.
I have nothing but good things to say about GSL. They were and have been responsive anytime we needed assistance. The CMS is easy to use and allows us to be agile with updating content on the various screens. I love having the digital donor walls and am looking forward to getting more creative with the content in the near future.
GSL and Navori Power San Diego Humane Society’s Digital Signage System
San Diego Humane Society sought an advanced digital experience to engage both patrons and staff, creating a more modern and efficient adoption center. GSL, leveraging Navori’s Professional software, seamlessly integrated the system with Shelter Buddy, enabling real-time information on animals available for adoption to be accessed across multiple platforms, including kiosks, wall-mounted displays, and tablets. This real-time data replaced outdated paper kennel cards, improving guest experience and facilitating faster animal adoptions.
Additionally, Navori’s Content Manager simplified content management for the Humane Society’s staff, allowing them to quickly update and synchronize content across multiple displays without needing advanced technical expertise. The system’s ability to manage both Windows-based and Android media players ensured cross-platform compatibility, streamlining operations.
Talk with Kathleen Van Dusen, Project Manager:
What are the benefits of now having this solution deployed in their facility.
KVD: Guests are able to find basic information on their own while using the kiosks and digital kennel cards. This interactive tool gives them something to do while they wait to meet with an Adoption Counselor.
Positive feedback on the solution from their customers or visitors.
KVD: Our guests enjoy using the kiosks and digital kennel cards. This gives folks the ability to see all relevant information on an animal in real-time and they have the option to look through multiple photos.
What made you want to get started with/deploy these digital experience?
KVD: In the past we used paper kennel cards which would become outdated almost as quickly as they were printed and placed on the kennel. These would get dirty, wet, crinkled and removed by guests. The digital version is not only visually appealing, but also functional and improved the guest experience.
What you like most about the software powering the deployments?
KVD: The software is user friendly and easy to troubleshoot.
How has this system made your customers/visitors experiences better?
