MagicINFO On-Premise is approaching its End of Life, and for many, VXT is shaping up to be the natural next step. With MagicINFO On-Premise licence sales concluding on 31 December 2026 and full support ceasing by the end of 2029, now is the right time to explore what comes next.
For those considering the move, VXT offers a modern, cloud-based alternative that builds on everything MagicINFO users already know (content creation, scheduling, device management, and remote control) with added flexibility, scalability, and long-term support.
And with ScreenCom Group as an official Samsung MagicINFO and VXT distributor and digital signage solution provider, the path there is well-defined.
For most MagicINFO On-Premise users, the real question is not whether to move. It is where to move next. The safest answer is usually the platform that covers the daily essentials first: scheduling, device control, layouts, permissions, and updates. That is where Samsung VXT stands out.
Unlike MagicINFO On-Premise, VXT is not built around local server ownership. It is built as a pure cloud-native platform, meaning it requires no local server installation and updates are managed centrally by Samsung. Users can complete registration with a simple pairing code, while content and screen management sit in a web-based environment. That shifts the workload from server maintenance to platform management, which is exactly what many teams now need.
Content scheduling is one of the main reasons organisations stayed with MagicINFO. VXT keeps that workflow in place. VXT CMS supports playlist and schedule management, including weekly and monthly calendar views for timed content delivery. For teams focused on everyday content publishing and scheduling, VXT CMS S Series is the natural starting point. If you need a broader deployment with more advanced capabilities, VXT CMS P Series builds on that foundation.
Central device control is just as important as content scheduling in many digital signage networks. Samsung separates this clearly in VXT through Remote Management, which supports remote power control, status checks, screen configuration, and lock controls. That makes VXT RM S Series a strong fit for teams that need essential control across distributed screens. For larger networks that need deeper monitoring and diagnostics, VXT RM P Series is the better option.
If your current setup depends on menu boards or coordinated display groups, this is one area to review closely. VXT CMS P Series includes Sync Play and multi-screen enrolment, while it also supports Screen Wall layouts up to 10x10. For MagicINFO On-Premise users who rely on synchronised playback or more advanced visual layouts, CMS P is the closest fit.

User control remains important in shared signage environments. With VXT, you can take advantage of permission-based access, as well as built-in user roles for managing content, screens, and workspaces. For teams used to separating access between marketing, operations and IT, VXT keeps that structure in place. It remains an important part of safe day-to-day platform management.
One of the clearest differences between MagicINFO On-Premise and VXT is the update model. With on-premise systems, updates often depend on internal planning and server maintenance. VXT allows software and firmware updates to be deployed remotely, supported by alerts and early warnings. For many organisations, that means less manual upkeep, fewer delays, and a lower operational burden.
If your current MagicINFO On-Premise use is mainly content publishing and scheduling, start with VXT CMS S Series. If you need synchronised multi-screen content or more advanced layouts, look at VXT CMS P Series.
In practice, many MagicINFO migrations will combine a CMS licence with a Remote Management licence. The right mix depends on how your current setup is used, how many screens you run, and how much control your teams need day to day.
A MagicINFO migration should not start with guesswork. It should start with a clear view of the features you use now, the hardware you need to support, and the VXT licence mix that covers those needs properly.
That is where our team adds value. We know MagicINFO On-Premise in detail, and we know how to map those workflows to Samsung VXT without losing what matters. Our Migration Team supports organisations through the move, and our migration support helps remove friction from the process.
If you have a setup that is based around MagicINFO On-Premise, now is the right time to review the options and plan your next steps. The move to VXT is not a leap into the unknown. When done properly, it is a structured step towards a cloud platform that already covers the features your teams rely on.
MagicINFO On-Premise is in its sunset period, with licences End of Sale on 31 December 2026 and support continuing only until the end of 2029. The good news is that the core features many teams rely on today, from scheduling and device control to layouts, permissions and remote management, all have a clear path into Samsung VXT.
The key is choosing the right licence mix and planning the move properly around your current setup. That is where our experts can help.

You should start planning as early as possible. MagicINFO On-Premise reaches End of Sale on 31 December 2026, with support continuing until 31 December 2029. Early planning gives you time to review your current setup, choose the right VXT licence, and avoid unnecessary pressure later.
No. Core functions such as content scheduling, device management, multi-screen layouts, user permissions, and remote control all have a clear path into Samsung VXT. The main task is to match your current workflows to the right VXT CMS and Remote Management licence combination.
That depends on how you use your current system. VXT CMS S suits straightforward content scheduling, while CMS P is better for more advanced layouts and synchronised playback. For device control, RM S covers core remote management, while RM P suits larger networks needing deeper monitoring and diagnostics.
