Display your Microsoft Teams Channel on any screen, automatically
If your organisation uses Microsoft Teams for internal communications, you’re already familiar with the challenge: important announcements posted in Teams reach desk workers just fine, but what about everyone else?
Manufacturing floors.
Warehouse teams.
Retail staff.
Kitchen crews.
Reception areas.
All the places where people don’t sit at computers all day, checking Teams notifications.
The typical solution? Manually recreate that same content for your digital signage. Copy the text, download the images, reformat everything, upload it to your CMS, and schedule it to your screens.
Then do it again tomorrow. And the next day. And every time there’s an urgent update that needs to go out immediately.
Now, there’s a better way.
Why connect your Teams Channel to digital signage
Our Microsoft Teams Channel content app eliminates the duplicate work entirely. Connect any Teams channel to your digital signage, and every post automatically appears on your screens.
Your communications team posts once in Teams. That’s it. The content flows everywhere it needs to go – to desk workers via Teams, and to your entire workforce via your displays.
Benefits of our Microsoft Teams Digital Signage integration
Why is this connection so important? It fundamentally improves your internal communications workflow.
End content duplication
It stops you reformatting the same message for different platforms. Your team can save hours every week by maintaining a single source of truth.
Reach your entire workforce
Frontline and non-desk workers see the same company news, recognition and updates as everyone else. No one’s left out of the loop.
Use tools people already know
Your communications team doesn’t need to learn a new system or change their workflow. They keep posting in Teams exactly as they do today.
Speed matters
When urgent information needs to get out, you don’t have time to manually update screens. Automatic syncing means everyone sees critical updates when they’re posted.
Maintain consistency
When the same content appears everywhere, there’s no risk of version control issues or messaging getting out of sync between platforms.
Professional design, zero effort
The Teams Channel content app includes responsive templates that automatically adapt to any screen size or orientation. Portrait displays in your elevator, landscape screens in your cafeteria, LED video walls in your lobby – the content looks great everywhere.
Customise the templates with your brand fonts and colours in minutes. Then forget about it. The design handles itself while you focus on the content.
