Det Nordjyske Mediehus Enhanced Visual Collaboration with Polywall

Det Nordjyske Mediehus is a leading media company. As part of one of Denmark's most prominent media groups, the company plays a critical role in providing high-quality media content and essential information to diverse audiences throughout the region. With a substantial workforce and extensive regional reach, the company continuously strives for innovative solutions to enhance its internal workflows and audience engagement.

Initially, Det Nordjyske Mediehus (DNMH) faced challenges in effectively visualizing editorial planning and content across departments. The company needed a flexible, intuitive system to manage multiple video walls, enabling staff to quickly display and update content in real-time to support rapid decision-making and collaboration.

As DNMH expanded its digital presence and operational demands, Polywall’s intuitive platform became integral in other departments, including marketing, sales, and radio production. The solution now provides a centralized visual overview, enhancing real-time collaboration and quick decision-making.

The main video walls support daily operational planning, while brand monitors installed throughout the company continuously display promotional video content. Real-time dashboards facilitate immediate competitor analysis and responsiveness from editorial teams. Moreover, integration with external systems, such as radio broadcasting tools, ensures smooth on-air performance with minimal delays.
Technical upgrades including efficient file uploads, robust webhook integration, and stable NDI support further streamlined internal workflows and expanded operational capabilities.

Five years ago, Det Nordjyske Mediehus implemented Polywall, an intuitive and scalable video wall management software, to address its visual collaboration challenges.

The company's technical team selected 55” screens, arranged into 2x2 video walls placed strategically within the editorial area to facilitate quick meetings and rapid information sharing. Polywall was chosen due to its flexibility, ease of use, and capability to quickly modify displayed content based on immediate needs.

Initially, the Polywall system was deployed with eight video walls of varying sizes and ten standalone screens across the organization. Utilizing Polywall Enterprise edition, the primary content sources integrated included real-time dashboards for competitor monitoring, promotional video playlists, and internal communication streams. Editorial teams, radio production staff, and marketing and sales departments emerged as the most active and enthusiastic users of the system.

The implementation of Polywall provided significant operational improvements at Det Nordjyske Mediehus. Rapid onboarding meant users became proficient within days, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity. Enhanced decision-making capabilities emerged from real-time visualization, enabling quicker responses to operational changes and market dynamics. Additionally, Polywall's adaptability empowered teams to rapidly test, iterate, and implement new ideas, fostering an innovative environment across departments.

Polywall has become an essential tool for Det Nordjyske Mediehus, significantly improving internal communication and creating a dynamic workspace that encourages ongoing collaboration and innovation.
