Great program for school computers but annoying for Microsoft updates **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sarah R. | Homeschool teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 19, 2023 **What do you like best about SmartShield?** We really enjoyed having the ability to monitor what the kids were doing on their laptops from the teachers computer. Furthermore we liked that the teacher was able to remote into the students computers if they are on an inappropriate website. The price per computer is relatively affordable. We also liked that it wiped the computer of all potential viruses and downloads that the student may have accidentally placed on the school laptops. **What do you dislike about SmartShield?** While we liked that it wiped all potential viruses and threats from the computer, it also erased all saved passwords and files which made it hard for our specific needs because we give each child a specific computer instead of it being shared and so the students couldn't save projects on their computers and had to relog into their student emails every time they wanted to use their computers. It also makes it hard for anyone to access the smart remote account because our teacher used her personal information for it and the school had no way to reset the login information. Also the program doesn't recognize Microsoft updates as a safe program and so it will wipe clean all Microsoft updates to the computers which leaves the laptops outdated. Lastly, it's a pain to try and get it off the computers and I would have to uninstall it multiple times before it finally came off the laptops. **What problems is SmartShield solving and how is that benefiting you?** It helped us to monitor our students when they used their computers and more importantly the internet. It also wiped any potential threats they might have accidentally downloaded while using the internet. ### 2. Love this product!

Cost and time saver! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jason H. | Manager Salesforce.com Development, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 18, 2012 **What do you like best about SmartShield?** It's product doesn't work for all businesses but we have a call center and employees don't need to stay at one location. They move from one desk to another so no one should be saving to the hard drive. With smart shield when you restart the computer it reverts back to the original configuration. **What do you dislike about SmartShield?** Nothing **Recommendations to others considering SmartShield:** Get a demo ## SmartShield Discussions - [What is SmartShield used for?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-smartshield-used-for) - [View SmartShield pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/smartshield/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-05-14+06%3A54%3A15+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=d33c3620-db89-427a-8b3b-52116d36bc8f&secure%5Btoken%5D=e7b1786f5e0327d2082b8049664ebb505b87db43093d607eaa88eaa75a164432&format=llm_user) ## SmartShield Features **Generative AI** - AI Text Summarization **System Control** - Device Control - Web Control - Application Control - Asset Management - System Isolation **Vulnerability Prevention** - Endpoint Intelligence - Firewall - Malware Detection **Security Management** - Incident Reports - Security Validation - Compliance ## Top SmartShield Alternatives - [ThreatDown](https://www.g2.com/products/threatdown/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (1,040 reviews) - [NinjaOne](https://www.g2.com/products/ninjaone/reviews) - 4.7/5.0 (4,255 reviews) - [TeamViewer](https://www.g2.com/products/teamviewer/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (3,785 reviews)
