Compare Between School Menu Board Types
Comparing LED Flashing, Digital, Dry Erase and Magnetic School Menu Boards

We are often being asked about the differences between the various types of school nutrition menu board: LED flashing menu boards, digital menu boards, dry erase menu boards and magnetic menu boards.

Bellow are some of the criteria to help select the type of menu boards that would best work for you.

* Positioning of the menu boards
   Digital Menu Boards are wall mounted behind serving lines or ceiling mounted above serving lines.
   LED Flashing menu boards, dry erase boards and magnetic menu boards can be wall mounted behind serving 
   lines as well as on stands with or without wheels.  Also inside stands with integrated batteries anywhere in your 
   Cafes and on your counters.


* Power outlet vs. battery operation
  Digital menu boards always need a power outlet and available network.
  LED flashing menu boards can be battery operated without network.

* Support, cost and annual fees
   LED flashing, dry erase and magnetic menu boards are significantly lower in cost, with no ongoing needed 
   support  and no ongoing annual fees.


* Handwriting
   Digital menu boards and magnetic menu boards - menus are printed.
   LED Flashing and magnetic menu boards require daily or weekly writing in.


* Integration with POS Systems
  The leading digital school menu board providers allow automatic feeding of daily menus from the School 
  Nutrition POS Systems. 
  Only daily menus could be automatically updated with no real  possibility to present on digital menu boards 
  weekly menu boards, salad bar menu boards, A-La-Carte boards or Today's Specials that are imported 
  directly from your POS system. 
  LED flashing, dry erase and magnetic menu boards are not allowing automatic feeding from your POS 
  systems however they allow the display of the popular Weekly, Salad Bar, afternoon meals and 
  A-La-Carte Menus 

* Permanent Menu Board display vs, Slide show display
  LED Flashing, dry erase and magnetic menu boards are all dedicated to presenting your school menus. 
   Student can read them easily without the wait for switching between slides.
   Digital menu boards switch the display between slides and students have to wait for a specific slide before
    they can get actual menu information. The slide changes often before they can get the menu
    information that they are looking for.


* Dedicated School Nutrition Signage vs School Communication Systems
   School Communication systems become popular in many schools.
   The leading school digital menu board providers started entering the
   all school digital signage market for payment systems and  information across all school signage will
    eventually let to including cafe menu signage as one of the elements of school signage.
    LED Flashing, dry erase and magnetic menu boards  stay focused on menu info which provide the best use 
    of your school nutrition funds

* Overhead
   Digital Menu Boards require often personal involvement of school nutrition management and IT personnel 
   while LED flashing, dry erase and magnetic menu boards require no special daily involvement of school
   nutrition management and IT personnel


* Local School Control
  With digital menu boards most of the control and information control is done from the district office. 
   LED Flashing, dry erase and magnetic menu boards allow more  involvement in customizing the menu
   boards look per school demographics and specific menu item promotion by local managers.
   LED Flashing boards allow switching on-the-fly between numerous flashing and non flashing modes.


* Combination Menu Boards
   LED Flashing, dry erase and magnetic menu boards allow presentation of multiple menus on single
    boards - breakfast, lunch, entrees, daily specials, tomorrow's menu, A-La-Carte, Supper, and more.

Hope this info can help you in making your decision as to which menu board style to use for your district.
