Hi The role is based at the The Ferrers school in Higham Ferrers but the trust is based in Cambridgeshire.

I have to run two witless networks, my ubiquity one for everything all on one SSID then a sky one an SSID using the original sky router just for my sky mesh, my main sky box would not connect to the ubiquity for more that 30 seconds :-(

Did you sort? I’m sure it’s with ODBC? I can look at my old notes tomorrow if needed.

+1 for NetSupport looked at the whole range of products. they did everything we wanted and the support has been excellent. Every school in the trust has it now!

+1 here for NetSupport, used across all schools in the trust with no issues, greatly improving the e-safety side for the safeguarding team. Personally not a fan of impero, lots of speed issues in the past. NetSupport seem to be investing heavily in their products (just my personal opinion) and there pricing structure makes more sense. I would get demos of both or pop and see schools using them.

Thanks, have sent you a PM :-)

Potentially interested, will pm you when back at work :-)

When did you last look at NetSupport, it’s no way as expensive as it was and much more reliable than Impero. Have deployed the NetSupport suite across a MAT and works really well especially DNA

So I have a school whose eclipse is no longer supported due to its age... cloud/mls replacement costs are a little high! What do people have as cheaper alternatives? I’m not really looking to free/open source options.

I love this why can’t all software houses listen to its customers! Thanks to you and your team Al!

Interesting that no one is willing to share the reasons why they want to leave? I think every customer leaving impero to NetSupport would be happy to list the reasons!! I know when we left I certainly could, impero has had its issues for a while now! Looks like they might be sorting it but NetSupport is one of the best decisions our MAT made!

Had a similar issue with SCCM and GUID id's in the past but then it might be completely different... it does sound like a nuisance but net support is a much better product than impero, we have across 9 schools now and it's a godsend!

NetSupport all the way! LanSchool is ok for what it is but it's just not quite as good as NetSupport! We are deploying DNA and school across all schools in the MAT I support. Removing Impero and abtutor! Staff are loving it! Get them to give you a demo, there support is good too (can you tell I'm a big fan) always to provide more info if you want :-)

We recently faced this decision, netsupport was a no brainier for us!! Pricing, support and overall product is better! All just seems more thought out and intuitive! Staff love it too!
