<p>Karen - We are going to be a 1:1 school next year and are looking at SmartSync as a possibility. Can you let me know what your Wi-Fi network specs are (i.e. bandwidth and brand/# of access points)? Thanks - Luke</p>

I use 'AB tutor'. It is quite inexpensive and allows me to view and control all computers in my school from a single machine. I have the 'Green screen' that lets me lock any or all of the machines and puts up a message of my choice - usually just a 'LOOK AT ME' message. I can also take control of a machine and trouble shoot a students problems. I love it and would be totally lost without it!<br />
There is a 30 day free trial available…

Mike, you don't happen to work for the company, do you? Please identify if you do as this is a forum for teachers and educators, vendors should identify when they are "pitching".

I would definitely recommend downloading the free trial of SchoolVue <a href="http://www.crosstecsoftware.com/tryit.html" target="_blank">http://www.crosstecsoftware.com/tryit.html</a> .

I have used the software Vision from GenevaLogic. It's pretty simple. The district is trying out NetSupport Schools Software. It's a bit more advanced and I'm just now getting use to it. I can see the students desktop, enlarge and takeover thier computers individually or as a group, I can"chat" with each student to give direcrtion and send out messages. There is alot more, but I haven't used it yet.

I use iTALC in my lab and love it. I noticed that when I upgraded my graphics card some of the issues being shared disappeared. It is really nice having the ability to "lock down" the computers when things get out of hand. I love the ability to demo what we are doing on each screen while also projecting on the wall, this way no one misses out on instruction.<br />
I also have NComputing (extendas) and have not experienced any of the problems that was mentioned, yet.

I found out iTalc will not be available for Windows 7 environments until the end of the year. So I'll look at some of the others. Thank you for the useful information.

we tried Insight (Faronics) because it can handle a dual platform environment. not well though... like the other products mentioned, it really depends on network speed for wireless control, which is obviously essential in a 1:1 environment. It work fine sometimes, but other times not... the most reliable (and important) functions seem to be monitoring all students at once and screen lock/blank (you can customize the message, which can be fun!)

We use both iTalc and Netsupport School. iTalc certainly is priced right but as Amy noted above, has glitches. Netsuppport School has been great in keeping current and adding features over the years though the initial investment can be an obstacle. (that's why we use both...)<br />
<br />
We have installed dual monitors on all the teacher desktops using these products. The teachers really appreciate having the monitoring software displayed at all times on one monitor and having a monitor to use "normally".

I have heard about 'NETOP' , but have no idea about the software. Sometimes it becomes difficult to monitor the students when they are on their computers.<br />
