SignageTube is billed in euro: Starter, Professional and Enterprise are €10 / €22 / €36 per screen per month billed annually (€12 / €25 / €40 monthly). USD figures are the store's own USD prices. OptiSigns prices are their published USD rates, checked on 21 October 2026, and they change often.
OptiSigns plays an uploaded PowerPoint without its animations unless you export it as MP4. In SignageTube you keep editing in PowerPoint, and Professional plays it on Windows as built.
Beyond spreadsheets, Enterprise links to SQL, Oracle, ODBC and OPC: the systems your team already trusts.
Custom runs any SignageTube edition on your own servers from 5 screens. OptiSigns offers on premise on Enterprise, from 25 screens.
Every edition comes with a 15 day free trial, no credit card.
Fair is fair. Here are three places OptiSigns is the better buy.
A free plan, no card. We have no answer to that. SignageTube gives you 15 days on any edition.
Pro Plus at $13.50 adds dashboards and Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace integrations. For cloud files with a refresh every few minutes, it costs less than our Enterprise.
Hundreds of apps and integrations. If the length of that list decides it for you, OptiSigns wins.
Choose OptiSigns for data in cloud files when price decides. Choose SignageTube for data in a database, or slides that must stay real PowerPoint.
Nothing has to go dark. Run both during the trial and switch when you are ready.
Download your media from OptiSigns. Your Android TV devices and Windows PCs can run SignageTube.
OptiSigns turns an uploaded PowerPoint into a file. In SignageTube you edit in PowerPoint and the screen follows.
With Enterprise, drop a cell, query or field on the slide, no code. Databases, Oracle, ODBC and OPC work too.
Start with any edition. Add live data with Enterprise when you need it. 15 day free trial, no credit card.
