NetSupport School Reviews

The ability to control almost all parts of the interface and resources of the student's computer and the ability to distribute large files to many computers. The ability to help students without the need to be right beside then that to the remote control. Support for multi screen desktops is also good.

Sometimes it lags when I try to show my screen to the class, although I think is a hardware problem, no sure yet. The recollection of file could be better since it does not recollect folder, only files. The test generator is not very good. The games and rewards system is solid but it could be better o it could allow the teachers the options to create on of them own.

Just try it, I think is the better option in the market right now.

It has allowed me to have more dynamic classes and better awareness of what students are doing. It has also solve several problems when a mouse or keyboard malfunction since I can 100% control any computer in the classroom. It has given me the proof I need when student cheat on assignments o tests.

I like that I can capture the screens when I am conducting a lecture or direct instruction. I also use this to model actions on individual screens.

Sometimes when we want to use netsupport the program takes too long to load and seems "clunky". Sometimes the students complain that their program is too slow. This might be due to other issues on our network.

I like this program for school setting; students are aware of the use and likely avoid getting off task because they know of the monitoring capability. I also am aware of a situation where the Principal used this to monitor an employee who was making poor decisions and doing work that was not related to his assignment.

Tim on task, keeping students safe, modeling specific tasks on individual screens, chatting in a private way.

I am able to block applications and websites. I am able to lock students' keyboards and mice if needed. I can see what students are all doing all at once.

Net Support does not allow me to block websites on Google Chrome or lock students out of the internet (block internet access) with the Google Chrome web browser for some reason. It works well with internet explorer though.

This program really helps with classroom management in an educational setting.

Net Support has helped me to manage a classroom of students who work on computers.

Wake-on-lan, full-management of the student computer, good system of restrictions. file management. Good security and compatibility

Some problems when you want reinstall or add another or new student. Have to manage all class again.

Problems with some firewalls.

Go for it. Really nice product to manage your classrooms, students. make your lesson more interactive.

Managing huge classes from one point, switching on/off, installing some soft or sending files. Making lessons more interesting

Ability to monitor student use of laptops is a very nice feature. It is also nice to be able to share content to multiple PCs immediately.

No easy way to watch iPad use. It would be nice to have an easy and inexpensive way for a teacher to control mobile devices in a classroom.

Does not apply

This is a great tool for us in a classroom environment. We have installed it on teacher computers to monitor and control student lab computers. They're able to launch specific programs on the requested computers as well.

Thankfully there are no issues so far using this product

A remote tool for teachers to have access to.

I love that I can monitor my students from my desk using NetSupport. I have the ability to block certain websites and mute speakers

I don’t like that I can monitor from home and that I must be on the school districts server.

Able to assist students and other adults on campus via the computer

You can use the deploy tool to remotely distribute the packages to classroom PC's

If the student PC's are not on the same network (we have several sub-nets), then they cannot be managed the same way

Be sure you student PC's are at least similar in set-up for the deployments to work at their optimum level.

Classroom management; security, student login and device access

Easily monitor students screens while they are taking tests.

Multiple monitor support is difficult, students have 2 and I only see 1 in the program

Allows us to monitor students or lock screens when we don't want them not paying attention or cheating.

I love being able to show my screen to the whole class

I have not found anything that I dislike about this product

When I am in a training session I don't have to individually visit the students desk. I can just see what they are doing from my screen,

Total control of the classroom. Can lock computers with the click of a mouse.

Doesn't always connect to all computers.
