QL BENEFITS FOR EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS
While students are often shown announcements, class schedules, notices and news, staff typically require access to administrative information that is tailored to their unique needs. QL’s intuitive tagging support ensures the right content is always shown on the right screen.
Our QL digital signage software also integrates with automated notification systems to communicate emergency messages across an entire school network instantaneously. Alerts can be triggered from any external source, including RSS feeds, CAP feeds, social media, and school-managed data feeds.
With its user-friendly HTML5 user interface, QL Content Manager can be used by students and staff alike. Users can log in from their web browser; there is no local digital signage software to install or maintain. Active Directory / single sign-on is supported as are QL managed user accounts.
Our QL digital signage for schools offers many unique benefits for educators:
- It is extremely secure, reliable, and easy to use.
- Install QL Player for Android on tablets and dedicated interactive screens for wayfinding and class/meeting room occupancy displays.
- Emergency alerts and notifications can be triggered instantly from an automated system or by an authorized staff member.
- Connect to Google Calendar or Microsoft Exchange Calendar and show occupancy information with a mix of other content and data feeds.
- QL is available as an on-premise or cloud-based solution.
- QL Cloud is hosted and managed by Navori staff in a highly secure environment with 99% availability.
- QL Player can be used on multiple platforms, each native to the device’s operating system to ensure the best performance and reliability. You can select any Windows PC, Android device (including Navori’s own QL Stix) or one of the many supported System-on-Chip (SoC) displays from Samsung, LG, Panasonic, Sharp, Philips and others.
By implementing digital signage in school infrastructure, students and staff will profit from clear instructions and concise guidance on everyday activities.
Product Features
Digital signage for school communications will be easily managed. QL is extremely versatile, user-friendly and secure. This is why so many educational institutions rely on it for all of their screen-based communications.
Here's how our digital signage works:
QL features an easy to use template and ticker designer that anyone can use. Templates can display a mix of media and live information on screen at the same time. Live tickers can be positioned anywhere on screen for a permanent news and information channel while other content plays on screen.
Tagged content will always be shown to the right audience. Content tagged as public will only be shown on public screens while untagged content can play anywhere.
Screens and content can be managed based on their location, usage or any other criteria. Authorized users can publish to every screen, specific groups of screens or individual locations at any time.
User profiles and domains ensure users can see only the areas they are given access to, and they can use only the features associated with their profile.
Students can be given restricted access, so they can only update specific information on certain screens or in a QL Server hosted data feed.
QL features its own authorization system where a dedicated content manager must approve content before it can be shown on screen.
QL supports internet proxy servers and encrypted connections for added security.
Navori's digital signage software is guaranteed to improve the efficiency of schools.
