Protect works fine without other Unifi kit, as long as you have decent PoE switch gear to power the cameras, UNVR is quite happy to be a standalone device. Run Protect at quite a few of my customers, interface is so much better to work with. every time i have to sit in front of a Hikvision setup it feels like stepping back in time! Hate it

I think you are, I've got numerous UDM Pro's at customer sites and they've been rock solid

Senso here as well, deploy the client, all logged and filtered.

I look after a couple of Alternate Provision setups which would be a similar scenario. I use Senso for these, client based, so doesn't matter what internet connection they're connected to. Found it works well, reports if anything untoward is looked up. The support team are very helpful and they are happy to look at small numbers of clients.

Glad you're sorted!!

It's a setting, in activinspire, go to settings, select dual mode activboard from the list, then touch interoperability, set to OS compatible - - - Updated - - - This seems to get reset when activinspire updates

I use both Wave and Exa at different schools i support and both work well. I would say i've had more issues with EXA regards the filtering and recently the support has been a bit on the slow side (but that is improving) Wave 9 don't natively have active reporting which i need to speak to Lee about (according to Support another product is required to give that) so be aware of that when getting a quote.

Splashtop Business/SOS i've found good a setup for accessing devices, cheaper than TeamViewer. I switched to them when Logmein started getting pricey. Did look at Quickassist, but never found it very quick as the client either needed updating or installing and talking people through it..

I've seen this behaviour at a few of my sites running unifi controller 6.4.54 (latest) Looks like in certain circumstances clients can't see the DHCP server when 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz SSID's are combined. Split them out (or just turn 5Ghz off for the moment) that seems to resolve it. Expect a new version will be along shortly that fixes it

Take a look at Splashtop Business, you pay per client you connect to (if i remember the lowest tier is like 25 computers) but it's cheap, reliable, works well and you can have as many technician accounts as you want to connect to them.

I found this with some of our boards/screen after upgrading staff laptops to Windows 10. Seemingly Windows 10 is a little more agressive with the power savings of certain USB chipsets. Answer was always to put a shorter cable in place. Sometimes we had to bypass wall plates and plug directly into the screen. One occasion where we needed a certain length we had to use a USB powered hub to sort it. Hope that helps

Regards screen, i bought one of these on ebay, hacked off the top screw mounts and it worked fine https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0888TVDNP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Can highly recommend Foldr from an ease of access and security point of view It's not free, but isn't exactly expensive and works really well

Huawei Matebook x Pro, quick, slim, battery life is great does everything i need

Second this, these are great, surprisingly powerful, small, battery lasts ages and does the job Wanted something more cost effective than to keep buying cans (plus better for the environment) They're great for projectors etc, no worry about plugging in etc

Depends how much storage you need, if it's relatively minimal then RAID 1 will do the job and keep the costs down Have a few servers at various sites that are purely RAID 1

Have been running Unifi switches just over 2 years. The only time i've had to reset is after we had some power issues and the power went off/on repeatedly in a short space of time and they weren't covered by a UPS. Run across multiple sites and they just do the job.

Have been running both us-48-750 and US-48-500's plus a couple of the 24 port models and they've been rock solid

Had two schools desperate to keep using them, tried a number of different batteries from ebay and the like with no luck. Think unfortunately it's time to let them go...

I had no luck either

I'm amazed yours are still working, i had 3x sets and slowly the batteries have all died on them.

Intrigued as to what you mean by office 365 is flaky.

I'd just get an electronics project box, cut out part of the back and put right over the top it with a nice label on saying what it contains (or you think it contain!!!)

Wonde is a bridging system, a few of my schools use them to link services to SIMS

Hi All, A MAT I look after is having an arts weekend, where children from multiple schools will be getting together to take part in various activities. They've been asked to fill in form asking for first, second and third choices. Does anyone know of any free/budget software that we can pump that info in and it allocates spaces?
