Beyond the Screen: How Azulle and Captivate Are Powering Up Digital Signage

Did you know that up to 70% of digital signage screens fail to capture audience attention? The two biggest reasons are irrelevant content and an inability to stand out among distractions.

This makes it clear: engaging content is critical—but it’s only half the equation. Without reliable, high-performance hardware, even the best content can be hindered by freezing, lagging, or low-quality playback, disrupting the viewing experience and diminishing impact.

That’s why Captivate and Azulle have joined forces to create a seamless, high-quality digital signage solution. Captivate, an industry leader with over 23,000 screens in strategic locations including Class A office towers and luxury residential properties, delivers carefully curated news and entertainment from the world’s most trusted sources. To ensure their content is displayed flawlessly and efficiently, Captivate partnered with Azulle Mini PCs—providing the compact, powerful technology that drives their multifamily digital signage solutions.

Pairing a Great Solution with the Proper Hardware

By integrating Azulle Mini PCs, Captivate has expanded its offerings and empowered clients with CAPTIVATE|GO—a powerful, self-installation solution designed for businesses looking to optimize their existing screens.

CAPTIVATE|GO isn’t just a plug-and-play device; it’s a strategic shift that has redefined Captivate’s offerings. Initially developed for self-installers, the solution quickly became the preferred media player for Captivate’s managed installations, replacing older, less efficient hardware.

Benefits of CAPTIVATE|GO Include:

• Simple to install as a Chromecast or Fire TV stick
• Step-by-step instructions
• Minimal technical requirements
• Live support to assist you with any issue

According to Del McPhetridge, Captivate’s Chief Operating Officer, the partnership with Azulle led to explosive growth: “Our residential network grew by over 500% once we adopted Azulle into our large format offering. Without the partnership with Azulle, it would have been a much longer journey to achieve that rate of network expansion. The solution turned out to not only be easy & adaptable for our customers, but also for our business.”
