Social media platforms have made photo sharing easier and faster, while making framed pictures almost obsolete. However, in offices, where there is a constant captive audience -- people waiting for appointments or employees on their down time -- having framed photos on display is a great opportunity to showcase the company’s products or its proud history.

This is often realized in slideshow presentations looped on huge mounted monitors in big spaces. But, for small waiting rooms, digital picture frames would be a great option. You can even mount several on a small space for aesthetics or just have them within reach for informative presentations. For employees, it's a good wy to have several photos without cluttering the desk.

Whatever the purpose, here are five of the best digital frames.

1. Pix-Star 10 Inch Wi-Fi Cloud Digital Picture Frame
