KwickSIGN vs ScreenCloud
Both put menus on screens. The difference is where the menu comes from, what hardware you buy, and what you pay every month. Here's an honest side-by-side for restaurants.
| KwickSIGN | ScreenCloud | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | A menu-board function built into your KwickPOS | ScreenCloud is a cloud signage platform aimed at workplaces and retail, running through a player device or supported smart display and priced per screen on a subscription. |
| Screen hardware | Ordinary consumer Smart TVs — the TV is the player | A player device or supported display per screen |
| Pricing model | Included with KwickPOS — no per-screen fee, 1 or 99 screens | Per-screen monthly subscription |
| Menu & price source | Live from your POS — prices and items sync automatically | Not integrated with restaurant POS menus or stock |
| Sold-out items | Auto-86 — items vanish from the board when the kitchen 86's them | Updated by hand in the signage app |
| Video walls | Tile 1×4 up to 9×9 across cheap TVs | Varies by plan and hardware |
| Maintenance | Low — no player boxes, updates itself from the POS | Manage players + content separately |
| Best for | Restaurants running (or moving to) KwickPOS | Corporate and multi-location internal comms |
The real difference: your POS runs the screen
ScreenCloud is a capable signage platform — but it's a separate system. Someone still has to build the menu inside it, keep prices matching the register, and remember to pull an item when it sells out. Every screen typically needs its own player device and its own line on the monthly bill.
KwickSIGN takes a different path. Because it's a function of KwickPOS, your menu, prices, photos, and live stock are already there. Put a consumer Smart TV on the wall, and it shows exactly what your POS knows — updated automatically, with sold-out items 86'd on their own. No media player behind the TV, and no per-screen subscription.
Lower cost, lower maintenance
The savings are twofold. Up front, you skip commercial displays and a media-player box for every screen — a modern consumer Smart TV does the job. Ongoing, there's no per-screen software fee and far less to maintain, because the boards keep themselves in sync with the POS instead of needing a person to update them.
