If you bought a SMART brand then you got a license for Smart Notebook and that is what I would recommend. We are edu but the software is not at all specific to edu needs. It will do a good job for you and we have found it to be very stable and dependable. Just turn off the automatic updates when you install it. The nags for none admin users will drive them crazy, they update the software 10 or 15 times a day. Ok, not that much but it seems like it.

I've been tasked with the planning (on the IT side of things) on how to implement two smart boards, a SMART brand mobile board and a wall mounted Promethean board. I am a total n00b to this so any general pointers would be great as well. The equipment has already been purchased but the software has not. A few general questions: 1) What is everyone using for software? (the free version, pay for version, etc) 2) Is there 'universal' software that can be used? (looking to only have to deploy one package instead of 2) 3) Are there any good/great 3rd party products that can be used to enhance this in a business environment? 4) Does anyone have any experience deploying the software required for Promethean and SMART boards that doesn't involve the use of the sneakernet and user interaction? It looks like this technology is primarily used in an educational environment. We are not an educational facility and our goal is to use these to enhance business meetings and presentations. Any information that you have to contribute from that angle would be great. Thanks in advance, Joe ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
