Case Study: Coastal Carolina University improves campus communication and emergency messaging with Visix digital signage

Coastal Carolina University deploys 17 digital signage players with Visix

Coastal Carolina University was seeking a digital signage solution to improve campus communications for its students and numerous departments. The tragic events at Virginia Tech heightened this need, adding an urgent requirement for a system capable of emergency messaging. The university selected Visix and its AxisTV digital signage software due to its ability to integrate with the campus mass notification system and its blend of centralized management with distributed capabilities.

The Visix solution involved deploying 17 media players driving large LCD screens across campus. The system displays a mix of university-wide and department-specific content, managed by 26 content coordinators. Beyond everyday announcements and emergency messaging, the flexibility of Visix's AxisTV system has fostered creative uses, like showcasing student art. The university has achieved faster, more effective communication, high participation from the community, and a dynamic platform that has fully met its initial goals.
