CS Courtney S. EC Director Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 6/2/2023 "Great when it works" 0/5 What do you like best about LanSchool? When it works, it is pretty good at managing students from surfing to websites when restricting the sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about LanSchool? Customer service is not very helpful. Students do not consistently show up on the monitor when they are logged in. There is a lag and students are able to jump fromone page to another without the teacher seeing it. Lanschool also does not show window tabs. If a student has 5 tabs in a window, it only shows the one they are on. Lanschool also won't show when students are using computer products like the calculator. When math teachers are giving tests and students are not supposed to use calculator, the teacher needs to see the students using those products. New students will sometimes show up as expected, while others will never load on lanschool. The product is only available on more recent software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Most helpful is monitoring student use of technology, sending students private messages, and overall control over computers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about LanSchool? The lag time between what is on the student screen and what shows up in LanSchool is the least helpful. That lag time is a critical flaw that impedes my ability to keep students on task. The program has frozen a few times, not allowing me to dismiss a class or start a new one. It seems to be happening more lately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is LanSchool solving and how is that benefiting you?

PF Pam Driscoll F. Teacher Primary/Secondary Education Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 3/16/2022 "Fantastic Way to Keep Tabs on Student Work" 5/5 What do you like best about LanSchool? I like many aspects of this software - being able to privately message a student when you can see that they are not on the website or assignment they are supposed to be on is a favorite, but there are many features that I found beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about LanSchool? I never learned how to update all of the remote computers from my main computer when updates were issued to the software, so that required time and effort duplicating the installs to every student computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is LanSchool solving and how is that benefiting you? Keeping students on task as well as being able to model for the students on their screens so that all could see the example clearly was a real help. Also, being able to project a particular student's screen to the others as examples of what to do or not to do without identifying the student was helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Teacher 3/17/2022 "Upgrade to air was a major step back." 1/5 What do you like best about LanSchool? Being able to monitor student computers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about LanSchool? Lanschool Air give a lot less control to the teacher than the past version I had. I can no longer control a student device, or look up internet history. I do not like the "upgrade" to Lanschool Air at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is LanSchool solving and how is that benefiting you? Nothing anymore, it has made things worse since the upgrade to Air. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Teacher Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 9/2/2021 "Student Laptop Management" 5/5 What do you like best about LanSchool? LanSchool has been an absolute game-changer in my classroom. During virtual education and the pandemic, they became used to gaming or otherwise tuning out during class, then Googling all the answers once it came time to complete their assignments. This behavior carried over into the classroom this semester, and I have had to resort to LanSchool to manage it. Using LanSchool, I can block specific websites and applications during class, check in on students to ensure they are on task, and blank student screens when they need to focus on the front of the classroom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about LanSchool? LanSchool is one of the few programs that I cannot really think of a downside to using. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is LanSchool solving and how is that benefiting you? The big problem that I'm solving with LanSchool is minimizing student distractions from their laptops during class. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Technology Application Instructor Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/18/2019 "Lanschool Classroom Cyber control" 2.5/5 What do you like best about LanSchool? Lanschool allows teachers, any teacher to oversee individual student's engagement in activities. Teachers have the ability to monitor all student activity and engage students individually or the class as a whole. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about LanSchool? Our district is somewhat behind the curve when it comes to using Lanschool wireless. More company and district collaboration is necessary to update and install the program for ease of teacher use. There were a number of times the program was not able to keep up with input requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering LanSchool: Make sure your district or business IT department coordinates with Lanschool during the implementation process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is LanSchool solving and how is that benefiting you? Keeping students on task and the ability to track information and present the information for conferences. Lanschool also allows users to communicate needs with administration as well.
