Good idea have emailed web team suggested that we do that.. Russell

AD Integration that is part of the product. As for other services no reason even hosted by yourself as long as on internet should be no issue. Passed these on to product manager and lead developer of the project. Russell

Yes in terms of competition RM Unify is similar (we are better of course but then you work for Stafford so may disagree ) but on serious note. Yes RM have a SSO product and other companies working on things similar. Mainly as we all worked out at same time and to certain degree for same reasons this is way education market is going in terms with move away from VLE to different cloud solutions depending on what your requirements are.

Hi Something we at Impero Software unwrapped yesterday was YouID by Impero to give you marketing blub. Anyway we are supporting a whole load of apps (usual suspects google/live365 etc etc) and load more that currently integrating. However this general call asking if this site could support any web based app what would you want it to support? Russell

I hope you could as you work for netsupport Russell

That should work ok. Also don't just put the folder ones in put exe exclusions as well. As some AV solutions pick Impero as a false positive if we just do folder exclusions. Russell

Thanks for the PM one support guys will be in touch. Russell

If uninstalled client then should of uninstalled the BHO unless something was holding it open. PM your details will ask support guys to give you call. Russell

You would also need application/url blocking, print,power and patch management if you are truly replacing Impero as policy central is just a e-safety monitoring solution. Russell

Just out of interest are using Impero and or just looking at solutions at the moment. obviously I need to point out that AB tutor just replaces the classroom management part and not ALL of Impero. Russell

As synaesthesia said Impero is not a closed system like RM, Ranger etc we sit upon to top of your network and you do not need to rebuild your entire network to remove Impero off a machine .. not that you want to Russ

Currently Impero has IOS app that has two modes mode one is a teacher console i.e control other machines etc (windows/osx) and then student mode so teachers can send broadcasts, exams, message, chat windows etc to the student. We do not currently manage the IOS device. Russell

Liking NewsBlur but my major bug bear is that they only keep last two weeks. That meant some feeds that I read every few weeks I would lose those posts. Tried old reader before but import did not work due to load etc. Might try it again and see how I go with it. Russell

Hello my name is Russell.. ok most of you know me but thought better do the 'official' introduction… finally Impero has become a forum sponsor. After all the good responses from our customer base on here we felt we should put something back into the community. I am the QA Team Manager (for those who do not know me). However whatever you need in terms of Impero as before we became a sponsor please get in touch and I will connect you with the right people.

Hi Yes the AD group it would overwrite the computers group in. So if in console access rights machine b you have GroupA hidden but staffADgroup had it shown. You would see it. If Pm your details more than happy to get a support tech to call and remote in and help you set things up. Russell Russell

Lot of people do install it on the servers. The main thing is making sure that your shutdown policies are not on the main network otherwise your servers will shutdown every night Russ

If on about Impero on your DC and if would affect login speed shouldn't make any difference at all if got Impero on your DC servers etc. Russell
