Apache Guacamole vs. Impero Remote Manager (discontinued)

Limitations are only the effort you want to have to configure it (correctly).

Incentivized

Where we use the Impero Remote Manager is in a school setting and it works really well for us. We have our teachers use it every day to make sure their students are always on track. It works really well for students that we know are likely to get off track. We can see their screen and know exactly when they get off track and can get them back on track quickly.

The support for Impero Remote Manager is actually really good and I have been pleased every time I have had to work with them. Any time I've had an issue with the software, I've been able to call support and have the issue resolved very quickly and things start working again.

In overall features and what LanSchool can do, we actually like that product better than Impero. The reason why we went with Impero was because of the price. It has similar features but ultimately was a lot cheaper, so we chose Impero. We are a small charter school, so our budget is a lot smaller than in other school districts.

Incentivized

• The software is 100% open source and free, however, we are not currently utilizing it due to stability problems we have experienced.

Incentivized

• It keeps students on task.
• It allows our teachers to better manage how their students are using Chromebooks.
