Rise Vision Advanced costs $138 per display each year, with no monthly option on that tier. Its school alerts and overrides have a purpose. A shop TV showing coffee prices is unlikely to need them.
Kinosign makes a competing product, so weigh our view with that in mind.
Vendor pages checked November 2026. This compares documented plans, not hands-on test results.
Advanced is annual-only, even for one display
Rise Vision’s pricing page distinguishes Basic, Advanced and Enterprise. Advanced lists CAP-based emergency alerts and school-wide overrides. Enterprise adds district-wide controls, screen sharing, approvals and SAML SSO.
For a school that relies on alerts, those features belong in the replacement quote. For a shop showing opening hours, they are a reason to look at a smaller plan.
Compare per-display and per-school licences
| Product and plan | Price, USD | Unit and term | Screen task | Replacement requirements |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rise Vision K-12 Advanced | $138 | Per display/year, annual only | School signage with listed alert integrations | Existing alert service and its required workflow |
| Rise Vision K-12 Enterprise | $164/display/year or $1,399/school/year unlimited option | Annual; per-school option | Classroom and district requirements | Which licence mix suits each school |
| Yodeck Free / Basic | $0 for one screen; Basic $8/screen/month | Free single screen or paid monthly plan | One shop screen or a small paid fleet | Qualifying features and player offer |
| OptiSigns Standard | $10/screen/month, or $9 annual equivalent | Monthly or billed annually | General playlists and content design | Integrations or controls needing another tier |
| ScreenCloud Core | $20/screen/month | Billed annually | Workplace content management | Whether Pro or enterprise requirements apply |
| Kinosign, pre-launch | First 3 screens $0; $6 per extra screen/month | Planned monthly offer | Menus and ordinary notices | Pre-launch status and exact launch player |
Prices are checked November 2026. Alternative plan sources: Yodeck, OptiSigns and ScreenCloud. The Kinosign amount is pricing, not an approved live offer.
The billing term behind Basic’s displayed rate could not be confirmed, so that rate is omitted.
The per-school licence can cost less than individual displays
A per-screen model can become less attractive as a school adds displays. Rise Vision explicitly describes its unlimited licence as a school-level purchase.
The Unlimited license is sold per school.
For example, ten Enterprise display licences at the listed $164 annual rate total $1,640. The displayed $1,399 school option is lower before discounts and final terms. That is a reason to request a proper quote, rather than assuming a lower competitor headline produces the lower qualifying bill.
The school option does not mean unlimited displays throughout an entire district for one fee. Map the buildings and schools to the licence units before doing the sums. Quantity discounts can also change the comparison.
Shortlist Yodeck or OptiSigns for an ordinary notice board
Yodeck is a practical starting point for one screen because its free allowance is permanent. OptiSigns Standard lists playlists, scheduling and its Designer. Use the same notice in both and have the person who owns updates make the next change.
Keep office screen content focused. A busy layout full of feeds makes a poor test of whether people can read the one announcement that matters.
Consider ScreenCloud when workplace communication is the job
ScreenCloud’s pricing distinguishes Core, Pro and Enterprise, and its product offer includes Studio and Arc. It deserves a look when the screen belongs to a wider workplace communication process.
Match your required controls and content sources to the actual plan. Core’s annual headline is $240 per screen per year before offers and taxes. If the required feature belongs elsewhere, use that plan’s cost instead.
There is no saving in switching to an entry plan and then recreating a required workflow by hand every week. There is also little point buying a workplace suite just to show a shop’s opening hours.
When a school should keep Rise Vision’s alerts and controls
Stay if its school content, alerts and administration are part of your daily operation. Price the per-school option before assuming a cheaper per-screen competitor will reduce the full bill.
Compare Kinosign for menus and notices
Kinosign is pre-launch. Its draft pricing keeps the first three screens free and charges $6 per extra screen/month. The planned allowance is 30 AI menu makeovers a month on the free plan, plus 30 more for each paid screen; a live channel add-on is quoted separately. This is a menu-and-notice offer, not a school-alert replacement.
Check the pricing and launch devices. If your screen is a counter menu, try your PDF in the free menu maker. It reads the PDF in your browser, lets you check the items and redraws them as a Kinosign design.
