NetSupport School Deploy - Room mode

NetSupport School provides a quick and easy way to assign PCs to a particular room and quickly deploy the Student software to those machines. The Tutor specifies the required room at the start of a lesson and will connect to all computers in that room.

Note: If you need to deploy the Student software across your network or need more advanced deploy options, you need to use the NetSupport School Deploy utility. This can be accessed by clicking Network on the NetSupport School Startup wizard or selecting {Start}{Programs}{NetSupport School}{NetSupport School Deploy}.
