3. How easy is it to calibrate color to adjust as the displays age? Color calibration is a complex process in many video wall solutions, and it can be both time and resource-consuming.

4. How quick is it to setup? A key aspect in a video wall deployment, a thorough understand of this process can help to make better decision when choosing a solution.

5. How many different types of content and sources can I connect? There are many different types of content that can be displayed on a video wall (i.e. video & image, scheduled content, HTML, live streams, real-time camera feed, Live TV, HDMI sources, etc.). A solution that gives you a greater flexibility in content support will be a greater asset for your deployment.
