Yes its a downgrade, they want you to pay for the applications, the cloud versions remain free. It is a bit of a problem as alot of charities, especially the smaller ones simply cant afford it.

Ruijie Networks, some clever stuff on their platform.

Honestly, found a few good options, network company ive never heard of that provided some right out there product and options that would rival Aruba and Ubiqueti. Company selling rugged cases for Chromebooks. If I find 1 new thing that catches my eye, i call it a win!

Thumbs up for Signinapp, was more versatile than the other 2 market leaders and far more cost effective!

Used them at a previous role a few years back with exactly the same issues, its heavily reliant on wifi strength, internet speed and equipment being used. If any of those are on the low side it plays up massively! I once spent a whole week on lunch times tethering the tablets through my phone to prove the point. I dont believe their platform is overly optimised for the amount of data it pulls down, i did suggest that the tablets cache the info looking for updates only but evidently this never took hold.

Depends what you want access to really. We have EE TV at home, all the freeview channels with recording function and all the streaming services on the box available (Although I use my Chromecast for voice control as its easier for that. Maybe look at Freeview boxes if thats the way you want to go.

Assuming you are using Chrome Enterprise and not the standard end user edition?

You need Direct Print RED pricing, thats device based, not user based.

DirectPrint here, nice fast interface, integrates with Google and Microsoft. Just deploy the msi and it sets up the printer for you.

My understanding is that Photoshop online is not covered by the standard licensing for Education. Photoshop online is IIRC £2 a user minimum 2000 users purchase quantity...

EntrySign is expensive, charged per device not site licened. Go with SigninApp, we have now at several sites when their EntrySign or Invenjry contracts became due.

The Murder Bot series, totally loved this! Currently on Red Rising series.

No, Ninja is a management tool with remote access, monitoring and although does have limited app deployment capabilities its not its core function. PDQ Cloud is pretty good for OTA deployments and some locking down options, but really you need a MDM solution for the bigger stuff.

Been using Ninja for around 2 years now, love it, works every time especially their remote access platform.
