 How much do BSN.cloud and BrightAuthor:connected cost?

BrightAuthor:connected is free to use, just like BrightAuthor, and the Control Cloud tier is free on all connected players. The full feature set of Content Cloud is the same price as a BrightSign Network subscription, $99 per player per year.

 Why did BrightSign create BSN.cloud and BrightAuthor:connected?

These were built to address many pain-points that BrightSign and our CMS partners faced in BrightAuthor and BrightSignNetwork, our legacy software. We simplified device deployment, network and player management, and delivered remote diagnostics, and made this functionality available to everyone. In addition, by using a more modern architecture, we’re able to provide a unified experience for BrightSign products on Mac and Windows, as well as through a Chrome web browser.

 How do you secure my data in BSN.cloud and BrightAuthor:connected?

See our security documentation for BSN.cloud and BrightAuthor:connected.

 Should I use the desktop app (BrightAuthor:connected) or the web app (accessible at bsn.cloud)?

BrightAuthor:connected, available for Mac or PC, is recommended for the vast majority of users. While much of the same functionality is available through both apps, the web app has some important limitations. The web app requires an internet connection and is unable to access players through the user's local network (players must be connected to the internet to be accessible). In addition, files must first be uploaded to BSN.cloud before they can be used in presentations. BrightAuthor:connected does not have these limitations.
