Case Study: Quickly Growing Property Management Group in Canada enhances resident and employee communications with Screenly

Digital signage in real estate

Quickly Growing Property Management Group in Canada needed a simple, affordable way to add digital signage across its rapidly expanding portfolio of properties and internal offices. With a tiny IT team and a growing need to communicate with residents and employees, the company looked for a solution that could scale without expensive computers, servers, or clunky USB/smart-TV setups. It turned to Screenly and its Raspberry Pi-based digital signage software.

Screenly helped the group deploy and centrally manage a growing fleet of screens for building announcements, resident notices, employee communications, roaming marketing displays, and even a projector, with plans to add performance dashboards next. The company now has about 17 screens in operation, including 10 in property buildings, 4 for internal communications, 2 mobile screens, and 1 projector. The results included lower deployment costs, easier implementation, positive tenant feedback, and stronger employee engagement as staff began suggesting new Screenly use cases.
