  • Generate reports on technology use in the classroom;
  • Prevent cyberbullying;
  • Send out emergency notifications;
  • Share files;
  • Remotely login devices; and
  • Control Windows SteadyState disk protection.

New LanSchool customers will receive the console as part of their software license and existing customers will receive the new features free of charge.
