Fusion Signage announced an integration with Canva that aims to simplify digital signage content creation and allow businesses and organizations to send it live to screens without manual steps.
The integration connects the Canva design platform with Fusion Signage’s digital signage software in an effort to give users a more seamless way to create, manage and publish visual content across single screens, multiple locations or entire screen networks. The company said that the integration is built around a simple idea – design in Canva, send to Fusion Signage, go live.
“What I love most is how easy this makes things for us. We used to design templates in Canva, download them and then have to recreate editable versions in Fusion Signage. Now our team can edit directly in Canva as it is incredibly easy to connect Canva to Fusion Signage. We are and will definitely be using this integration in our workflow moving forward,” said Rebecca Filling, administration manager at Adventure Park Geelong and Fusion Signage user.
Fusion Signage said that with the new integration, users can move from content creation to digital deployment without the traditional export, download and re-upload process that often slows teams down and introduces unnecessary friction.
Users can log into Fusion Signage, go to the Manage section and click Add, then Canva. That takes them to their Canva account. Once their design is ready, they can click Return to Fusion Signage, where the Canva asset appears like any other media item. From there, it can be added to playlists, updated at any time, scheduled like any other piece of content and deployed to one screen, one location or thousands of screens across a network.
The company said that the integration allows hospitality spaces to update menus and venue announcements more quickly, and in education environments, staff can utilize Canva for Education. Corporate professionals can use the integration to keep workplace screens relevant.
Fusion Signage said that the integration unites content creation and distribution by allowing Canva designs to move directly into digital signage workflows. This aims to allow for less friction and more creation. From a technical standpoint, the integration has been designed to feel seamless from start to finish.
“The result is a faster, simpler and more efficient digital signage workflow that helps organizations create better content and get it onto screens with less effort. In a category where speed, relevance and visual impact matter, the Canva and Fusion Signage integration gives users a practical new advantage that adds real and tangible value to their business,” said James Ingram, Fusion Signage MD.
