Cotham SchoolA solid product, reliable, simple, and straight forward to use and very easy to set up. Used here on a daily basis for sending messages to staff. Invaluable for IT service information and urgent messages.
Michael Groom, Hethersett AcademyYes all is well with the LINK System. It is the best teaching tool I have ever used. We have new SmartBoards in our classrooms but one of my students just yesterday said they prefer the LINK System for my demonstrations. I agree.
Mr. Baierwalter, Bluffton H.S.Notify is extremely easy to use and train staff on the ability to send alerts.
St. Joseph's HealthManager is very easy to configure and use.
Bradley Estate AgentsNotify has worked perfectly every time we have needed to use it!
Dereham Sixth FormDNA has been instrumental in terms of network and asset management here at Marmalade.
Alex Smith, MarmaladeWe 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.
Mr. English, SUNY OneontaThus far it is working great and a couple of the faculty use the laptop connection and love it. It is a great way to control what the students see on their screens, especially in a large capacity room. I would not go with anything else. We have been using LINK System since 1998.
S. Hudgins-Summtrahall, ABD, East Central UniversityWe have been using Manager for years. It allows us to remote onto our clients computers with ease.
Bloor HomesWe were looking for a management tool to enhance instruction and to allow the monitoring of students as they work. We tried several network systems but found the intensive graphic requirements of the cad and 3D solid modeling software made the video response too slow.I saw the LINK System used at a local college, that was all it took. I knew I had to have it! The ability to focus each student on their own screen during direct instruction is invaluable. The ability to take control of the student station from the teacher station is important. If a student has a question there is no need to go to that station. If you would like to use that student’s screen for helping or instructing other students you can transmit that individual student’s screen to all the other student stations. We have used the LINK System since 1999. Applied Computer Systems is excellent. Their customer service is second to none! They are prompt, and courteous. If you call with a problem, they will do whatever it takes to solve that problem.
Mr. Wright, Bloomfield Central School DistrictThe LINK Systems are still going strong, and if asked, can highly recommend them. However, with our ever decreasing budgets, I doubt we'll be able to upgrade any time in the near future. The big problem with making a good product: They last too darn long!
Mr. Jung, San Mateo Adult SchoolThank 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 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 SchoolI love the simplicity of this software to quickly compose and send messages to users and computers across school.
Richard Pugh, St. Anselm's Catholic Primary SchoolGreat product and good support when there is an issue.
Luke Capper, Christ the King Catholic High SchoolLow resource demands, easily integrate into Active Directory. Great tool for getting important notifications right in front of staff when you need to.
Farmers State BankWe use it every class and often for in-house presentations. It is a key element of QuickPen's training program.
Mr. Blair, QuickPen International
