Key Differences between the Commercial Digital Signage WebOS (SCAP) and the Hospitality WebOS (HCAP)

  • HCAP does not support On/Off scheduling via our web application
  • HCAP does not have any ‘onboard’ storage.  The content is cached, but if the screen is turned off/on again then the screen will have to pull the content from our web-servers again.  If ever required, we can provide an edge server to sit on the LAN which will download all of the content from our web-servers and distribute over the LAN to all the HCAP screens.  This might be more efficient if there are lots of HCAP screens running the same content in particular.
  • HCAP doesn’t allow us to remotely update the screen’s firmware from our web application.
  • HCAP doesn’t allow us to take screenshots.
