# Best digital signage software for offices and dashboards

Office screens mostly show information that already lives somewhere else: a Power BI report, a Google Sheet with targets, a slide deck with news, a calendar of meeting rooms. The real question is whether those sources connect on the plan you are paying for, or only on a higher tier.

**Short answer:** For offices that put dashboards and company news on screens, Screenbird is the best digital signage software in this check: it is the only platform here that publishes Power BI, Google Sheets and Slides, and SharePoint and OneDrive on its entry plan, plus AI and proof of play in the same plan.
