IT and AV Engineer Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great Digital Signage solution in an Apple TV ecosystem" February 24, 2026 4.0 Overall experience is great, especially campuses / organisations with multiple Apple TVs. I've tested other competitors before — they do support tvOS but often come with many limitations. Pros Using Kitcast has been great so far in our campus. The deep integration with Apple TV meant that we didn’t have to purchase proprietary hardware, and the setup was relatively quick and simple. The admin dashboard is also easy to understand, allowing our staff to manage content without a steep learning curve. I also appreciate the discounted rate for educational institutions — it's a budget saver. What stands out too is the Kitcast customer support team. They usually get back to me within a day, and they’re always open to feedback and suggestions. Cons Unlike some competitors, Kitcast does not have a flat licence fee for one educational site with unlimited signages, so costs can add up as we're billed per screen. Technical performance is mostly smooth, but the tvOS app can occasionally crash when overloaded with memory-intensive widgets. Finally, while the team is receptive to ideas, new feature implementation does take quite some time. It's great for simplicity, provided you don't require multiple advanced features.

The user interface is easy to use and understand. The support is quick to responds. Pros Ease of Use / Setup / Value for Money - these were key to our choice. We needed a products that our staff could easily be opened and understood. Cons We are still exploring, the main thing we are working on figuring out is scheduling slides correctly Switched from [Carousel](https://www.capterra.com/p/211319/Carousel/) Price, the cost was going to be over $3000 for 12 licenses. This was crazy for a school.

Customer service somehow manages to be as bad as the software itself. Pros Content scheduling was the only feature that worked as advertised. Cons This software seems to have been written by a junior developer with little experience. There isn't anything to like here. Reason for choosing Kitcast AppleTV support seemed like a easy win but it was more trouble than it was worth.

Pros The customer service is amazing - the team responded quickly any time I had an issue or needed help with something. The interface is extremely easy to use compared to other software, which makes adding and training other users simple. Cons The software has a few ‘quirks’ that I found didn’t quite work the way I had expected it to - like the media expiration feature not removing media that is active in a playlist - however, I quickly found a solution after reaching out to customer support.

We even observe themed months, such as Halloween. Pros It's easy to use and gives the office a cool vibe, displaying our videos on the TVs. We have a rotating selection of our best commercials. Cons Sometimes when they change a feature, you need to find out how to do it again, but it's usually fast. Review Source PB Paul B. Site Supervisor Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Customer support is excellent" February 19, 2026 5.0 Excellent - Couldn't ask for more. Customer service is great and the features that Kitcast offers are perfect for what I need Pros The customer support is excellent and replies to any queries are prompt. I find the setup easy to use and the features are perfect for my needs. I like the choice of templates that are on offer that help me promote our school events. Cons Can't think of any at this time. Perhaps the options for the smart templates are a little limited at the moment and more of these would be a good addition. Review Source MR Max R.

We have used it for many years and are happy with the service. n/a. Pros It is extremely versatile, and the Kitcast team are always on hand to help us with enhancements and ideas such as Power Bi. The interface is easy to use, and you do not need to be technical to understand it. Cons The only issue we have as a UK Based company is the support hours do not match with our hours, but this is not an issue but if I had to say one thing it would be this! Review Source Robert L.

Makes us look professional. Pros Simple, easy to use solution that works with AppleTV. Really nice graphics and nice, prepackaged templates. Cons The pricing model for a single location with a small number of AppleTV devices doesn’t make sense for a small business like we are. I would rather a single price for 1 to 5 devices within the same building. I want to be able to render a web page as one of the screens, for example our weekly class schedule which changes all the time. More dynamic content that could be fed from an API.

Any video that is part of the presentations is also only displayed as an image. Presentations that are imported show artifacts due to compression. They also can not be separated to mix in other videos or media types. Review Source Jason S.

We share our overall metrics with our workers, as well as Pics and Videos of our work, Safety bulletins and employee discounts. Thank you again for making such a great product. Pros Ease of use. I can't wait to use this at all of our locations and change their media remotely. Cons So far I haven't found any. This does exactly what we need it to. Review Source JE Josh E. Operations Officer Banking Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great Product" November 20, 2018 5.0 Overall a great product and works well. Pros It is an easy to use web based software that connects great via WiFi. Cons I wish they had more templates and options. The pricing for a single unit is high and I wish your subscription was able to be control multiple units for the same flat cost.

November 20, 2018 5.0 We run Kitcast around our design agency office to show off our team and work. Prospects in the office always comment on it, and it does its job to act as a passive marketing tool. We love it! Pros \- Multiple locations/zones - Auto-updating when I add or update content - Wonderful customer service - Out-of-the-box simplicity Cons \- Would love more content types - Ability to schedule a playlist for a specific date in the future, not just day of the week Review Source VR Verified Reviewer IT Project Manager Banking Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A great product that is costly" November 20, 2018 5.0 I have enjoyed using the product and would recommend them to any SMB looking for an easy-to-use and visually impressive digital signage product. Pros Ease of use, quick to deploy. You'll have digital signage on your AppleTV running in less than five minutes. Cons The cost. The high cost per device can quickly add up.

Pros The point that websites can be easily distributed as pages Cons Especially, support is very substantial. Review Source SO Stephen O. Director of Communications Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Exactly what we needed." November 20, 2018 5.0 Our experience has been nothing but a pleasure! The Kitcast! experience is exactly as you would expect and want it to be. It is so simple to manage and pleasant​ to work in, that I didn't even bother to look at any other software company! We are an avid supporter of Kitcast! and recommend it to a lot of people with whom have the same needs as ours. Pros The simplicity of the back end of the software is amazing! For anyone who is trying to use digital signage and manage it remotely,​ this is the solution you're looking for. Design an image, upload it and have it live within minutes. We could not ask for anything more! Cons The biggest con that is not really that big of a deal for us, is the lack of a vertical version. We are told it is under construction and we eagerly await its arrival! For now, we just design our signage vertically and miss out on all of the cool features that Kitcast! gives you like ​social media integration and more! Review Source GK George K. Chief Executive Officer Research Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Practical signage content management" August 12, 2022 5.0 Pros Kitcast reduces the effort needed for signage content management to quite low levels with its practical features. Cons Kitcast should definitely have a better pricing plan especially for yearly subscriptions. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer CTO Market Research Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great product but still a few rough edges" November 27, 2018 5.0 Overall, I think the is a great product and fills a niche at a good price point. Pros Very simple to setup and get started. Relatively self-explantory configuration of screen schedules. Comes with a pretty decent set of available default content feed and layouts. Cons I have a particular use case that doesn't work all that well. I'd like to rotate through the calendars for multiple conference rooms. It's easy enough to setup a screen for each room's calendar. But, there is no way to have the final screen include the name of the conference room along with the calendar! Not a huge deal, and by no means a deal breaker, but there are a few rough edges here and there like this that can become a little aggravating. Review Source TW Tzigane W. Desktop Support Analyst Media Production Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "KitCast 2018 " November 20, 2018 5.0 We use Kitcast at my place of employment to cast all types of media to our Apple TV's throughout the office. We have been able to eliminate the need for custom banners and backgrounds by utilizing the Product. Because of this, we have been able to cut down the time it takes to troubleshoot issues with our Apple Tv's Pros I like how seamlessly the product works with Apple TV and how simple it is to navigate. Very straightforward installation process and very user friendly. Cons I have not run into any issues as of yet with his product. Review Source RF Roger F. Executive Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Good but has some bugs" April 8, 2019 4.0 Overall this is a cost effective way to quickly deploy and advertising solution to TVs in professional offices, churches, schools etc. Pros The software makes distribution to TVs easy with the Apple TV app. As long as you have wifi this makes the multi-tv broadcast solution really affective. The online system allows for images, videos, and some other features that make it pretty easy to use. Cons The app is sometimes buggy. We've had a few issues where the app doesn't load or it loads up media in a strange way. The ability to share media between tvs (while also having different ad line ups) is problematic.

Teacher, Technology co-ordinator E-Learning Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Digital Sign for Schools" November 20, 2018 5.0 I have been looking for a digital signage tool that I can easily manage and works simply and reliably for displaying and updating school information. I don't want to use a dedicated computer (too big and complicated setup), use remote access to a computer (too complicated). I like the online access and features in Kitcast and I like its AppleTV app which turns the AppleTV into an inexpensive appliance type device. I run Kitcast in kiosk mode. It has run with 100% uptime and no issues since installation in the summer. Pros I like the ease of online updating and the variety of templates available. I also like that there is a separate AppleTV application that pulls information directly from the Kitcast server. This is the only way that I can reliably connect an Apple TV device to our enterprise network. Cons At this point, nothing. It is working 100% for me. Review Source MK Milner K. Admin Assistant Education Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Product" November 27, 2018 4.0 We have now used Kitcast for 3 months and it has worked great for getting more information out to more students, staff and parents. Pros Easy to use and set up. Likes the options available to create different templates and to duplicate them for other playlists. Cons I would love to be able to move out dated slides to another section. I do reuse slides but it could be months away. I don't like having lots of slides in my playlist that are paused, so I end up deleting them. So if I could move them or store them out of site that would be great!

Pros Inexpensive. Easy to use. I liked that I got it up and running in the first 30 minutes. Cons Lacks some basic features (even within existing options). Weather was ALWAYS wrong. I didn't like the graphic design on the pre-made and it's impossible to edit basic color & layout changes. I could make my own template for the static slides but there's no way to upload animated slides. For example, I didn't like your clock, but there was no way to edit it so it's a feature that I never used. Also, the social media integrations lacked some basic functionality and they never worked. Yelp always showed the same two reviews, and there was no way to change or fix that. The Instagram integration was the best but that also lacked some basic settings so we could prioritize or block certain pics or types of pics. Plus, there's no Facebook integration at all. Review Source SE Sam E. President Entertainment Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Cost" November 16, 2018 4.0 Pros Ease of use Cons Cost is too high. Especially for use on additional screens. Makes it hard for a small business to justify. Review Source Similar Products Featured
