Thanks for the positive feedback guys.  I understand that this video doesn't exactly fit up to the set standards for a demonstration video, nor a promotional video; but is more of a mix between the two.

I've given it some thought from your replies, and have decided to further the development of the video to slide into a less neutral, and more positive containment of the promotional video aspect; given that we are trying to persuade districts to purchase the software.


In reference to the post earlier from YMan; that is an outstanding idea, and is something I'd like to persue in the future, however this praticular software is designed specifically for controlling a specific classrooms network connectivity capabilities.


I agree in the mannar that it would be very neat to develop an application that could be used as a total classroom management system, such as the one developed by Altaris called "Vision".

Basically it works in a client-server setup, where the server is the teachers workstation and the student nodes are running the client application.

Teachers may choose to do a variety of different security and management tasks for their classroom such as viewing the active screen of students, controlling student machines, etc.

The strict advantage of the CMS system I'm developing is that it's hardware based, and cannot be overthrown by a student.

Whereas Altaris Vision's security aspect is soley focused on the student not having high enough permissions to forcibly exit the process, else it can easily be bypassed.


To bypas the CMS system, you would literally have to unplug the network cable, and plug it into a different un-filtered port on that, or another device.

Many more advantages for using this system are in-place, howerver not mentioned here, nor in the video... which is the primary reason for it's failure to be within the promotional video levels.

Thanks,
Travis
