What is digital signage?

What is the difference between mediaSERVER and mediaCLOUD?

+

mediaCLOUD is a cloud based Digital Signage (also known as SaaS or software as a service). All of your media files (videos, animations etc) are stored on our servers and stream down to get locally cached within your local players / computers. You get all the support and software updates at no additional charge. mediaSERVER is a privately hosted server solution. The server software and hardware are purchased and owned by you. All the licenses for the players / computers running are also owned and managed by you, within your network or with your internet service provider. With the mediaSERVER you do not pay a subscription fee; however there is an optional updates and support annual fee.
