Ubimob Digital Noticeboard System
A focal point for the site — displaying site-specific information, a news feed, and local weather on a large wall-mounted screen, with a companion mobile app for residents.
The Communication Challenge
Housing providers face increasing pressure to communicate effectively with residents whilst managing limited staff resources. Printed notices become out of date quickly, residents miss important information, and staff time gets spent updating physical noticeboards across multiple schemes — some residents can't access communal noticeboards regularly at all.
The Ubimob Digital Noticeboard provides a simple digital solution.
What Is The Ubimob Digital Noticeboard?
The Ubimob Digital Noticeboard acts as a focal point for the site, displaying site-specific information, a news feed and local weather on a large screen wall-mounted monitor. Noticeboard content is retrieved from the Ubimob Cloud Service over the internet using the NB Player, which displays it on the wall-mounted monitor via HDMI.
Residents can also view the content remotely using their tablet or smartphone. Staff can generate bespoke content via a simple to use and secure web portal.

The noticeboard also displays the date and time, with a title section at the top that staff can edit directly from the web portal.
