Why people switch from OptiSigns

OptiSigns pricing creeps fast. Ours doesn't.

Reason 1

$6 vs $15 — every feature on the base plan

OptiSigns Pro-Plus is where the platform actually shows up — Power BI, API, advanced roles, custom branding, proof-of-play. That's $15/screen. Brix gives you the same feature set at $6/screen, flat. Same screens, ~60% off.

Reason 2

Tier upsells aren't optional

OptiSigns Standard at $10 looks like the entry point — until you realise Power BI, the API, advanced roles, and proof-of-play all sit on Pro-Plus at $15 (or Engage at $30). By year two most operators are paying $15–$30 per screen. Brix has every feature on day one.

Reason 3

No add-on fees

Video Wall, Background Music, Wireless Presentation, Ads Portal — paid add-ons on OptiSigns. All included with Brix at $6 flat.

Talk to a real human
The honest take

What OptiSigns gets right. And where the math breaks.

What OptiSigns gets right

OptiSigns has been one of the most competent platforms in the SMB-to-mid-market space for years. The interface is polished, the app marketplace has real depth (Salesforce, Microsoft Teams, custom dashboards), and the hardware lineup is reliable.

If you need integrations beyond standard signage, OptiSigns earns its reputation. SOC 2 compliance, a mature support org, and a settled product roadmap make it a defensible choice for enterprise buyers who specifically need those things.

Where the pricing math breaks

OptiSigns publishes three tiers: Standard at $10/screen/month, Pro Plus at $15, and Engage at $30. The headline looks competitive with Brix’s $6 — but the math changes once you map actual feature needs to tiers. Multi-user roles, proof-of-play analytics, and PowerBI, remote restart live behind Pro Plus. Most operators we talk to who’ve been on OptiSigns for 12+ months are paying $15–$30, not $10. On 10 screens that’s $1,800–$3,600/year. The same deployment on Brix is $720/year — every feature included.

When OptiSigns is the right choice

OptiSigns is the right call when you genuinely need its breadth: Salesforce-driven content rotations, complex SOC 2 procurement, or interactive kiosk experiences that justify the Engage tier. Mid-market enterprise with budget for a feature-rich platform and a low-tolerance for vendor evaluation — OptiSigns is a safe choice but also at those prices, they’re competing against the mid-market players.

Brix is built for the 80% of signage deployments that don’t need any of this.

FAQ

Real questions. Real answers.

"

Can I migrate my existing OptiSigns playlists to Brix?

Yes. Export your assets from OptiSigns (Settings → Account → Export), then drag them into Brix. We’ll rebuild your schedules for you, free, regardless of plan or screen count. Most migrations are live in under an hour.

"

Does Brix work on the same hardware as OptiSigns?

Yes — and on cheaper hardware too. We support Amazon Signage Stick, Android TV, Windows PC, Samsung Tizen, LG WebOS No proprietary players required. OptiSigns Pro or ProMax devices will run Brix’s Android TV app.

"

Why is Brix so much cheaper than OptiSigns?

We don’t tier features. Every Brix screen gets the full feature set at $6/month flat. OptiSigns funds a 140+ app marketplace and enterprise sales team — useful for some buyers, paid for by everyone.

"

What about OptiSigns’s app marketplace?

That’s their real strength. If you specifically need Power BI, Salesforce, or a niche third-party app, OptiSigns is a better fit. Brix focuses on the core signage workflow — playback, scheduling, multi-zone, remote management — done reliably.

"

Is the migration really free?

Yes. Send us your asset library and a list of your screens; we’ll rebuild your schedules, pair the devices, and hand you a working deployment. No charge, no minimum screen count.

"

How does Brix compare on contracts?

Brix is month-to-month by default. OptiSigns offers annual discounts but locks you in for 12 months. If you grow or shrink mid-year, Brix flexes; OptiSigns charges you for the original count until renewal.
