Virtual Cable and NetSupport have entered into a strategic alliance, focused on the integration of NetSupport School with Virtual Cable’s UDS Education, in order to offer a comprehensive and advanced solution for technology management in the education sector. This is a digital workspace solution designed specifically for the education sector, offering secure and continuous access to all educational centres’ applications and software from any location and device.
In addition, it integrates seamlessly with Moodle and other LMS platforms, providing unified access to all educational tools through a single portal. UDS Education facilitates the virtualization of desktops and applications for Windows and Linux, and allows remote access to computers with Windows, Linux and macOS operating systems.
NetSupport is also recognised in the market for its classroom and training management solutions, which are designed to optimise the technology used by customers, improve return on investment and increase productivity in any type of organisation.
“We are delighted to welcome Virtual Cable into our partnership and share our core value of ensuring that education technology is affordable, accessible and, most importantly, effective. Together, we can help schools and educators access and benefit from NetSupport School’s comprehensive instructional tools, whilst helping them manage their devices efficiently, resulting in a more productive learning environment,” says NetSupport CEO Al Kingsley.
User experience in the education sector
These goals coincide with those of Virtual Cable’s UDS Education. NetSupport School, one of its main solutions, is very popular for both teaching and classroom management, and its functionalities will be available on virtual desktops or computers remotely accessible through UDS Education.
