Analysis of filesystem checks/changes/updates for automated processing using extra tools is easier with inotify than with either constant looped polling or cronned ones, and it's far more efficient.

Pros

Light on resources, simple to integrate into full processing pipelines. Reduces strain on constant polling for changes by allowing an efficient filesystem events reporting/reacting.

Cons

Requires incorporating into extra logic and tools to build proper pipelines for processing and automation.

[Cronhub](https://www.capterra.com/p/267457/Cronhub/)

Inotify was far more efficient, eg. for backups where cron would push another portion of the same data while invents processing meant work only on actually changed data.

Although some aspects could be improved, in general the user experience is good and its results as well.

Pros

The possibility of adding all file formats and controlling several screens at the same time.

Cons

It would be simpler and would save time if you could select, from the image itself , in which screens you want it.

Usable, easy to use and intuitive, it has reminders that the presentation time of the campaigns ends, so that the screen with the default image remains.

Pros

It has autoinstall kit, to test 15 days. It is very easy to use and flexible when it comes to reconfiguring the content. It has the option to expire or make visible a medium depending on dates, so we do not have to be pending to appear or expire content.

Cons

Suggestions: - Improve the import of other content formats
