In today's busy world, staying organised is more important than ever. Whether you’re managing family schedules or coordinating a business, having the right digital calendar display can make life a lot easier. Two of the top contenders in this space are the Skylight Calendar and Bella Linda - Smart Displays, powered by DAKboard. In this article, we’ll compare both options to help you decide which is best for your needs.

1. Design and Display: Flexibility vs Simplicity

The design and size of your digital calendar are key factors, especially if it’s going in a shared space like a home office or a kitchen. The Skylight Calendar offers a 15-inch touchscreen display that’s ideal for families. However, Bella Linda - Smart Displays offer greater flexibility, with a range of sizes from 24 inches to 55 inches, including touch and non-touch options. Plus, Bella Linda’s displays are housed in beautiful, handcrafted wooden frames, offering a touch of sophistication and sustainability.

For users seeking more options and customisation, Bella Linda - Smart Displays clearly provide more flexibility with various sizes and custom-built frames. Skylight’s single-size option may suit those looking for a simple, ready-to-go solution.

2. Functionality: More Than Just a Calendar

Functionality is another major area of difference between these two digital calendar displays. Skylight Calendar is known for its simplicity, focusing primarily on calendar and to-do list management. It syncs with major calendars like Google and Apple, making it great for family use. On the other hand, Bella Linda - Smart Displays are powered by DAKboard and offer a range of additional features, including countdown timers, multiple screen layouts, traffic updates, custom notes, and a whiteboard feature.

If you're after a more powerful, flexible digital display solution, Bella Linda - Smart Displays offer the ability to integrate a wider variety of content, making it ideal for both home and business use.

3. Customisability: Tailor Your Display

Customisability is one of the standout features of Bella Linda - Smart Displays. While the Skylight Calendar offers a fixed design and layout, Bella Linda - Smart Displays allow for complete customisation. You can change the screen layout, select from different display sizes, and even choose a custom, eco-friendly wooden frame. This level of flexibility ensures that your digital display will match both your aesthetic and functional needs.

With more options for customisation, Bella Linda - Smart Displays are perfect for those who want a tailored digital display solution that can adapt to different environments, whether in the home or office.

4. Usability: User-Friendly for Families and Businesses

Both systems are designed to be user-friendly, but they target different audiences. Skylight is ideal for families, offering a quick and easy setup with minimal customisation. Bella Linda - Smart Displays, while still easy to set up, offer more advanced features, making them suitable for both personal and business use.

If you're looking for more than just a family digital calendar, Bella Linda - Smart Displays offer the best of both worlds: user-friendly setup with advanced functionality for those who need it.

5. Price: Flexible Options for Every Budget

Price is an important factor when choosing between these two products. The Skylight Calendar is priced at $499 AUDfor the 15-inch touch screen. Meanwhile, Bella Linda - Smart Displays start at $1,090 AUD for the non-touch 24-inch model. Bella Linda also offers larger sizes, making it more flexible for different budgets and needs.

Bella Linda provides more size and pricing options, making it ideal for customers looking for a customisable and affordable solution for their home or business.

6. Sustainability: A Greener Option

If sustainability is a priority, Bella Linda - Smart Displays stand out with their custom wood-framed designs made from sustainable materials. Skylight Calendar, while functional, uses a plastic frame and lacks an eco-friendly focus. Bella Linda’s handcrafted frames are a great option for those wanting a more sustainable, stylish digital display.

For eco-conscious customers, Bella Linda - Smart Displays offer a more sustainable option without compromising on style or functionality.

Conclusion: Which Digital Calendar is Right for You?

If you’re looking for a simple, easy-to-use calendar for your family, the Skylight Calendar could be the right choice. Its simplicity and plug-and-play design make it ideal for home use. However, if you want a more versatile solution that can handle a variety of content, has more customisability, and looks stunning in a handcrafted wooden frame, then the Bella Linda - Smart Displays powered by DAKboard is your best bet. Not only does it offer greater flexibility for both personal and business use, but it also brings a touch of elegance with its sustainable materials and sleek design.

At Bella Linda, we believe in merging style, function, and sustainability to bring you the best of both worlds. Explore our range of Smart Displays today to find the perfect fit for your home or business.
