  1. We're getting up to around 120 cameras here now, and there's a very "relaxed" attitude about CCTV. I'd like to get some training on this and move towards some sort of compliance (if there is such a thing for a private system?). Has anyone any training courses/ideas I could go on to try and influence the management about the misuse?
  2. Voice too, mainly for no Strike and not had to use them.
  3. Exactly same here
  4. This, plus the "I've forgot and I'm out" or genuine PC issues at irregular times. With 1600 kids, there's always someone. But yes, now £295 a year if you can meet the requirements. Think we might not!
  5. Has anyone else received a massive checklist regarding card payments from Parentpay? Seems to be a compliance thing from the PCI Security Standards for when a member of staff inputs card details given over the phone. I don't think we'd comply with the massive list I've just glanced at! Any advice?
  6. Yes, we're 3rd year in a 3 year. I've budgeted for a 50% increase next year to be safe. Millgate is our current supplier, but I went through the Framework and they were still the cheapest on this occasion.
  7. Yes, I use a vertical mouse https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00BIFNTMC/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_wjDeDbVEVEYBR Also, take Turmeric!
  8. I have a couple of these left, one running Linuxmint and one on Neverware. They're functional if not luxurious!
  9. To be fair, ours were £36 after quotes. I think this is pretty good value (127 FTE but 1800 users!)
  10. We're Avigilon, with a mix of old Panasonic cameras, Avigilons and some cheaper Hikvision. Good system, but pricey comparably. A lot easier to use though!
  11. They do very good prices on refurbished, just bought some myself!
  12. Our 5 year (LA ordered) contract runs out next March, so will be looking around. Happy to hear experiences of other providers privately please!
  13. This is my wife's school, if anyone wants some inside knowledge.
  14. Xaomi Mi Band3. Cheap and cheerful
  15. Yes, us too. No problems at all.
  16. Pretty sure they're all Chinese?
  17. So that leaves Apple, Samsung, Nokia and Blackberry then??
  18. I'm in exactly the same boat. Ones I know of (never used, but will be getting quotes): Bt Business Core Computers IC technology PWD Supplies
  19. My card is full of films and music. That's why I want a crad slot, although besides that the Pixel 3a looks good. Need something to replace my S8, with it's blurry camera!
  20. It's what a reseller told me. Who really knows?
  21. People with Promethean Interactive whiteboards.
  22. I was only offered 3yr warranty on BenQ MX842UST? Is that wrong?
  23. I understand your point, but £650 installed for an 80" image for projectors?? Our current have lasted 7 years, and we're only replacing 10 out of 80 so far. Anyway, DLP vs not DLP please! We have some screens, it's not like they don't get to use them. They want to teach with projectors in these venues.
  24. Hi, we're replacing 10 older NEC UST projectors. We're being quoted some BenQ DLP, and some Hitachi "normal" ones too, among others. What are the benefit of the DLP? The Tech specs say the lamp life is a little shorter, and the lamps are more expensive, but I don't know the overall benefits in real life of a DLP?? BTW, all 10 department/teachers want a replacement projector rather than any sort of TV/screen. They have to be UST.
