Looking for Appspace alternatives because digital signage is what you actually need? Rise Vision gives you digital signage, screen sharing, and emergency alerts on one platform. You'll pay per display with unlimited users, keep your existing hardware, and share to up to 10 screens at once.
Appspace bundles intranet, digital signage, space reservation, and visitor management in one workplace platform. If signage is the part you came for, you're paying for the other three whether you use them or not. Three differences matter once you're just comparing signage.
We only charge for your number of displays, and nothing else. Appspace charges for a Device ID for every screen, plus a Premium User license for everyone who needs access to their Employee App.
The Basic pricing plan starts at one display billed monthly, so you can pilot one building without committing much of your budget. Appspace Express starts at 25 Device IDs and 25 Premium Users.
Our Enterprise plan includes wireless screen sharing on the displays you already use for signage. Share from any device to up to 10 screens at once, no adapters needed. Appspace doesn't offer screen sharing.

“We're really happy with it! It's only taking up 1% of my time, not because it's less important, it's because there are no problems. The best thing about Rise Vision is ease of use for the end-user. I don't have time to assist everyone personally, so it has to be easy for the Non-IT person, which Rise Vision is.”
Mark Meszar / Information Technology Team Lead at Kent State University
We have simple, transparent pricing starting at $11 per display per month, and all our pricing is available on our website. We have options for every organization, including volume discounts. You can work out a rollout cost before you talk to us.
Our Enterprise plan turns your signage displays into wireless presentation hubs. Screen share from any device to up to 10 screens in one session, no adapters or dongles needed.
You'll save hours a week with 750+ animated, customizable templates. Anyone on your team can edit them without design experience, pull in content automatically through Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Canva, local weather, and news services, or describe what you need to our AI design tool and get an editable presentation back.
Bring your own hardware and scale at your own pace without vendor lock-in. Run Rise Vision on a Chromebox, a Windows PC, a Raspberry Pi, an Apple TV, or our own media player, all managed through one cloud-based platform. Over 12,300+ organizations already run on Rise Vision.
Emergency alerts take priority over whatever's on the screen, even an interactive display. They tie into Common Alerting Protocol systems like Singlewire, Raptor, and CrisisGo, and they're in the Advanced plan and up.
Every plan comes with world-class support: a one-business-hour SLA, a 99% customer satisfaction rating, free training, and a customer success team that guides you through onboarding.

We'd say Rise Vision, and we're biased, so judge the reasoning yourself. K-12 districts have been our main focus for almost a decade. Our Unlimited plan covers unlimited displays at $1,399 per school per year. Jacksonville City Schools grew from three displays to 14 across two schools, with a bookkeeper managing the content.
We can't give you a straight swap number because Appspace doesn't publish prices for Express or Enterprise. Our pricing is public. Basic is $11 per display per month, and Advanced is $138 per display per year. Volume discounts start at 11 displays.
Probably not. Rise Vision supports a wide range of hardware, allowing you to bring your own media players and displays, including Android, Windows, Chrome OS, and Linux, and devices like Amazon Signage Sticks, Raspberry Pi, and Apple TV, which covers most of what Appspace runs on.
Yes, from the Advanced plan up. Rise Vision seamlessly integrates with Common Alerting Protocol systems like Singlewire, Raptor, and CrisisGo. Alerts take priority over whatever else is on screen.
Yes, on the Enterprise plan. You can share wirelessly from any device to any display running Rise Vision; no clunky adapters and dongles required. You can also share to up to 10 displays at once in classrooms and conference rooms with multiple screens.
No, and Appspace covers more ground than we do there. If you want desk booking, a visitor kiosk, and an intranet in one system, Appspace is the broader platform. We combine digital signage, screen sharing, and emergency alerts into one platform. You can use Rise Vision for wayfinding and event management.
There's a free trial, and you don't need a credit card to start. If you buy and change your mind, you're covered by our 30-day money-back guarantee.
Most teams start looking 6–12 months before their Appspace contract renews, or when a district-wide or multi-campus rollout forces a platform decision anyway. If your renewal is coming up, get a Rise Vision quote before you negotiate under a deadline.
