Wayfinding FAQs
Large facilities like shopping malls, universities, and hospitals struggle with directing customers and patrons in the right direction efficiently. Printed signs are expensive and are quickly outdated, while manning an information desk with an employee is costly, too.
That's why many of these organizations are turning to digital wayfinding.
Digital wayfinding consists of large, sometimes interactive, screens that are loaded with detailed map information. Companies are making the switch to digital wayfinding for several reasons.
Visual Appeal. The large, sleek screens with cool graphics and interactive features look modern and sophisticated. They instantly draw in the user and help them with their wayfinding needs.
User Experience. It's frustrating to not be able to figure out where to go when you're looking for something. With digital wayfinding, patients, customers, and students can access what they need to know on their own, and be on their way fast. This ends up being a positive experience with the company's brand.
Back-End Ease. Digital wayfinding is driven by digital signage software, which can be integrated with other platforms, and easily updated and changed as needed. For example, add announcements about early closing or special events with the touch of a button.
Marketing Tool. Along with providing wayfinding, this tool can promote the latest specials, classes, or new openings. Your audience uses wayfinding and sees these important marketing initiatives, too.
Inclusion Efforts. Static signs are not going to help the visually impaired. Digital signage can offer a voice-option to help wayfind for this segment of your audience.
