For our upcoming installation for the prestigious New National Museum in Oslo, Norway, Bright was looking for a product that could meet the clients’ strict requirements for esthetics, function, and quality. We found that the HyperSound speaker met the requirement in full. The narrow wavefront makes the speaker ideal for critical applications like the new National Museum.

The Ford Piquette Avenue Plant is extremely pleased with our new Videotel VP70XD multimedia player. The player is now providing high-resolution video to our many guests. It was extremely easy to create the video as a simple export from PowerPoint. Do not underestimate this powerful device – this is not just a JPG player – it can play countless video formats. It is also very easy for our staff to start the player each morning – one simple touch to the outlet strip and both the Videotel and the display start right up. We have more applications for the Videotel players coming up soon!

From the minute I found Videotel on the internet I was excited. Finally something that looked simple and reliable. It literally took 5 minutes from opening the box to get rid of all the previous pain and frustration. I will strongly recommend Videotel to anybody looking for a looping video solution. It's incredibly simple to setup, there is no strain on valuable bandwidth, and best of all it never falters.

In 2009 Salem Hospital began installing hospital grade DVD players in our common areas and patient rooms to help the people we serve and their families find as much comfort as we could provide during difficult times. I was meant to source these players and over the course of several years, we struggled immensely with numerous brands because of the high failure rates and poor customer service from the manufactures. While searching on the internet for a solution to an untenable problem we discovered Videotel. I asked for a rep to contact me with guarded optimism and shortly afterward Lisa Schneider from Videotel reached out to us. We worked out an arrangement to bring an HD2600 XD on campus for us to review. Our findings were that the unit was considerably higher-quality than we had seen before. We ordered a test run for a full floor remodel. We were involved in and closely watched for failure rates, and were very pleased to find that the Videotel units had a zero failure rate during the trial period and beyond. We are now in the process of transitioning all of our existing DVD players on our campus to Videotel, and we are also putting them in all new construction projects moving forward. Thank you, Lisa and the whole Videotel team for providing a high-quality product and a competitive price.

“We started using the DVD version of media player over 10 years ago. With many people opening our museum exhibits on any given day, knowing that the DVD player would always turn on and play was very helpful. We have recently upgraded to the VP71XD industrial digital media player and it was ready out of the package. We also added the harness with pushbuttons and the directions to the program were very simple. From researching to ordering, to purchasing, the company is knowledgeable and great to deal with. Thank you!”

"We use the Videotel Digital VP70 LTE Commercial Grade Seamless Auto Looping Digital Media Player at one of our establishments located at the Northwood Golf course in Monte Rio California, Northwood Restaurant (Bistro) on a monitor that runs 24/7 with our latest menus and news which we call "Northwood News". We include holiday greetings year around and "Specials" as well as various videos on areas of interest in the place we live such as the coast, wildlife, and vineyards, redwood forests, etc. We selected this player because of its commercial-grade robustness and the fact we frequently have power outages and the Videotel player responds like a champion, we are quite pleased with the performance of this player!"

"We didn’t purchase the VP71 XD Digital Media Player for our use but rather for one of our clients. They needed a product that would systematically loop corporate videos and marketing materials. The functionality, whereby all they had to do was insert a thumb drive, and the media automatically played with seamless transitions between videos and photos with no disruptive overlay display, proved perfect. They’re beyond pleased. We will happily recommend this product to our other clients."

We use Videotel units in many of our exhibits to loop video and image files. We currently have several VP70, VP71, HD2600XD, HD2700M units in our displays and even an original DVD unit that has been working for the past eleven years with daily use. The auto-looping on start-up feature is especially valued by our maintenance staff who have to open the museum galleries in the mornings. They know they can turn the power on to the exhibits and not have to “fuss” with the equipment. The reliability and ease of use are strong points to consider when looking for digital video display options. Also, over the years when we have had occasional issues, your technical staff has been very responsive and helpful in finding solutions to our concerns. I recommend Videotel products to my colleagues in the museum field with confidence.

In the past (5) years, our company TTC INC/The Travelers Channel has purchased about 100 DVD Videotel units. The company operates a 24 hour visitors channel called The Travelers Channel in hotels, the Videotel DVD player has been the answer to our prayers. The DVD player runs 24 hours a day, like a fine Swiss watch. And if there is a power outage, the unit comes right back on without a manual reset. The Videotel DVD player also plays all formats of DVD discs without any problems. I highly recommend these units to any one.

We have DVD players scattered throughout a massive property in retail and promotional areas. In the past, after a power interruption, a technician would have to physically walk to each location and power the units on. The units are not located in the most ideal locations. The life expectancy was only several months. We purchased our first Videotel DVD player several years ago and have not touched it again. I have since replaced all the units with Videotel players. The new V2200 is more compact and easier to place in tight areas. It has one simple job – PLAY, REPEAT. It is a great product at an affordable price!

We have 4 different channels in our fitness center that play prere corded content. We used to buy new DVD players almost every month as they would die after 24hour daily use. Now with the industrial DVD players they run nonstop trouble free and are simple for our non technical staff to use. I would highly recommend there (I actually did to another gym) to anyone who needs constant play.

We have the need for DVD’s to run continuously over and over again at our club while people workout. We have tried other DVD players with REPEAT functions, including some expensive models, but it has not been as simple as it has seemed. Videotel seems to have figured it out and made our life simpler.

The Florida Holocaust Museum is using Videotel Digital’s VP70 LTE media players in several exhibits throughout the museum. They provide the quality of video and audio we need, and most importantly, the dependability. We haven’t experienced any downtime with these units due to failure or problems. With our previous solution, we were rebooting and restarting our exhibits at least once a week. These are just what we’ve been looking for!

Lisa and her team over at Videotel have been a joy to work with. They provide top-notch presale design and post-sale support. We've successfully deployed their VP71XD multimedia HD video player coupled with interactive features on several projects. We've also had great luck with their VP90 Industrial Digital Signage Media Players recently deployed for a local car dealership. It was simple to configure and Videotel's technical support department provided all the support we needed. They even went the extra mile to work directly with our clients to train them in areas we were deficient. That alone is worth its weight in gold! I highly recommend giving them a shot on your next project. You won't be disappointed.
