Screenly's answer

Screenly is a highly secure and reliable digital signage platform. It is trusted by top organizations like NASA and Amazon, powers over 10,000 screens globally, and is SOC 2 compliant. By building its own hardware and software, Screenly ensures total end-to-end control over safety and performance.

CodeeSuite's answer:

CodeeSuite brings all of a store's digital touchpoints into a single dashboard: digital menu, QR code management, digital signage and customer surveys. Instead of paying for and learning a separate tool for each, you manage everything from one place. Setup takes minutes, requires no technical skills, and every change — a price, a dish, a screen — goes live instantly. It also includes a built-in AI assistant on the digital menu that helps guests choose by answering questions about ingredients and allergens, in the guest's language.

Screenly's answer

You should choose Screenly because it builds both its own hardware and software, giving you complete control over your screens' security and reliability. It offers award-winning cybersecurity, strict SOC 2 compliance, and is trusted by major companies and small businesses alike. Plus, it is highly flexible, allowing you to use Screenly's dedicated media players or display content on any device you already own using a web browser.

CodeeSuite's answer:

One subscription and one dashboard instead of separate tools for menus, QR codes, signage and surveys. Modular: start with what you need and add modules later. Real-time updates — change a price once and it's live everywhere, no reprints. Built-in AI assistant that helps guests choose (ingredients, allergens, suggestions), included in the digital menu. Available in 5 languages (English, Greek, French, German, Spanish) and built for the EU market. Free 30-day trial, no technical skills required.

Screenly's answer

Screenly’s primary audience consists of organizations and businesses of all sizes—from small companies to Fortune 500 enterprises—that need to manage content on screens globally. It is specifically built for teams in highly regulated, security-conscious industries where strict data protection and compliance are non-negotiable.

CodeeSuite's answer:

Any business with a physical location. The core segments are food service (cafés, restaurants, bars) and retail, but it fits equally well for gyms, salons, pharmacies and showrooms — any owner who wants to manage menus or catalogs, QR codes, in-store screens and customer feedback without juggling multiple tools or hiring technical help.

Screenly's answer

Screenly started in 2012 as a simple project created by co-founder Viktor Petersson to run digital signage on the Raspberry Pi. That project evolved into Anthias, which became one of the most popular free and open-source digital signage projects on GitHub. Recognizing the need for a highly secure, enterprise-grade solution, the project grew into a fully managed commercial platform, leading to the official establishment of Screenly, Inc. in 2013. Today, the company differentiates itself by building both its own hardware and software, growing from its open-source roots into a global platform that powers over 10,000 screens.

CodeeSuite's answer:

CodeeSuite is built by CodeeHut Digital Solutions, a software company based in Piraeus, Greece. It started from years of building custom digital tools for local businesses — menus, screens, QR campaigns — and seeing the same problem everywhere: owners paying for several disconnected subscriptions, each with its own login and learning curve. CodeeSuite consolidates those tools into one platform with one dashboard, simple enough that a business owner can run it without any technical background.

Screenly's answer

Screenly is built using its own custom operating system, ScreenlyOS, which runs on its dedicated media players, alongside "Screenly Anywhere" which can display content on any device with a modern web browser. The company's open-source version, Anthias, is designed to run on Raspberry Pi hardware and PCs. Under the hood, the platform's infrastructure relies on advanced cloud technologies like Docker and Kubernetes, which the company's CEO utilized as an early adopter to build a highly secure and scalable system.
