Upgrade vs. Replace — See Your Savings
Answer a few quick questions and we'll build the full cost-of-ownership case — hardware, labor, disposal, software and logistics — for upgrading your displays with NEXT Hub instead of replacing them.
Which best describes your environment?
This tailors the labels and copy to how you actually deploy displays.
How many classrooms or displays are in scope?
We'll use this to size the comparison across your whole fleet.
What does it cost to replace one display — and over how many years?
This is your typical all-in cost for a brand-new panel, and the planning horizon for the comparison.
What's your hourly labor rate?
Full panel swaps need more people and more time. A NEXT Hub upgrade is a quick, one-person job.
Advanced labor & NEXT Hub assumptions
NEXT Hub crew defaults to 1 worker; the free 3-in-1 mic is included at $0 bundle cost.
Shipping & disposal
Whole panels are heavy and expensive to ship and dispose of. The NEXT Hub is not.
Upgrading with NEXT Hub keeps the existing panel in service — so there's nothing to dispose of.
Do your current displays require annual software fees?
Many display solutions charge ongoing licensing for management or remote tools. NEXT Hub software is included — $0/year.
We've prefilled a typical annual software estimate based on common industry licensing. Adjust it to match your contracts.
By upgrading instead of replacing, your district could save about $0 over 5 years.
0% lower total cost · about $0 per room.
