Dermont Woods, Cork National Roads OfficeSince Notify was put in place here at Martin House, I have had no issues with the software. It is simple to use, effective and fast. Have already recommended it to others.
Johnny Fantauzzo, Martin HouseThe LINK System is excellent, I could not function without it, especially for the primary grades. The feature that benefits me the most is to be able to control each individual computer and also to be able to demonstrate procedures to the class on their individual computer. I use the system all the time to show students how to do different projects step by step. One of the biggest benefits is it is much quicker to be at the computer and help students with questions than to walk around and help students.
Kathy Lyons, St. Mary SchoolNotify has worked perfectly every time we have needed to use it!
Dereham Sixth FormThank you for doing such a great job for us. The entire process, from the initial specs to the final installation was a breeze for us. And learning how to use the LINK System was easy with just a few minutes with Todd. Our instructors love the new LINK System.
Mr. Kazee, Palm Beach County Sheriff's OfficeThe LINK System is ergonomically beneficial to all the students, an exciting and fun delivery of content, eliminates “bad seat” conditions, and is beneficial to instructor’s time and amount of content to be delivered. The most useful features are transmit, testing, student view, and keyboard/mouse control. My overall experience with the LINK System and Applied Computer Systems, Inc. is wonderful.
Mr. Sheehy, Buckeye Career CenterACS has a tremendous customer service record and provides top of the line products for your classroom.
Mr. Smilonich, Snazzo ProductionsDNA for us is used in a manner to keep staff more accountable for their usage of technology, which in turn means more time spent on work and less time spent surfing the web.
Aaron Meyer, City of DickinsonManager is a fantastic solution because it has very minimal demand of system resources and extreme flexibility.
Insuring AmericaWe were lacking the ability to monitor our student(s) while on desktops. Teacher(s) would have to walk around the classroom to keep our student(s) on task. It was difficult for a teacher to tell whether a student was following along with class work or surfing the internet and visiting non-related school approved websites. With the implementation of SoftLINK our teacher(s) can now monitor all student workstations from their desktop. The content filtering has been awesome for us. The student(s) are definitely kept on task. Our teachers get a lot of use out of SoftLINK's other features also. I would say Applied Computer System's service and technical support would definitely be a 10+.
Mr. Fallis, Crow Creek Tribal SchoolsWe use Notify as it is the quickest way to communicate with staff when we need to. It just works!
Sutherland Smith, Trinity SchoolManager gives us the ability to reach all of our laptop, desktop and table users across teh globe! Without this tool, we simply could not reach our user estate!!
David Lloyd ClubsThe system works as advertised. It is perfect for our new classrooms.
Mr. Sparks, South Plains CollegeThe product does what we require and the tech support has been excellent, very knowledgeable with fast responses.
Daniel Buck, Derwen CollegeEasy, quick and accurate notification to our staff related to emergency situations on their desktop.
State Governmental AgencyNotify helps us with our lockdown procedures.
Chris Wilson, Ormiston Forge AcademyThe LINK Projection System is a great teaching tool to have in our lower school computer lab! I can model and transmit what I want the students to learn and each student can see my monitor displayed on their monitor. Their eyes are where they need to be to complete the steps I am teaching. The blank out button lets me get everyone to stop and focus. I am glad such a device is available for teaching computers! We have investigated some software solutions, but none were nearly as good as the hardware solution for our particular needs. Our lab uses some older educational games and these either would not work, or worked far too slowly, using software solutions. The real beauty of the hardware solution is its speed, and compatibility. Our system was first installed in 1997, yet when we replaced the computers this last summer with new ones (probably the 4th time since the original install), everything kept working great. Also, when we had a power supply go out 2 years ago, we were able to purchase a replacement without problem.
Mr. Cox, St. Francis of Assisi Catholic SchoolEasy and reliable - the whole package ticks a lot of compliance boxes at an affordable price.
James Barraon, Brighton and Hove High SchoolWe use it every class and often for in-house presentations. It is a key element of QuickPen's training program.
Mr. Blair, QuickPen InternationalWe have used LINK Systems from Applied Computer Systems here at SUNY Oneonta for many years in several computer labs. They have had the desired effect of giving the instructor control of the student monitors, so the instructor can focus student attention where he or she wants it. The system is very intuitive to use and so, requires little to no training. These systems have been very dependable and for the few times we've needed it, ACS support has been very good. We are currently in the process of converting from the hardware based LINK systems to the ACS SoftLINK software based system and are having the same success with that.
