Helping Build Classrooms of the Future - Today!

Notebook computers in the classroom can improve student achievement, and especially reading and writing scores – but only when computers remain in students’ hands. When computers are lost or stolen, achievement suffers and a child gets left behind.

To ensure the success of one-to-one computer initiatives, school district IT Departments must track the location and user information of every computer, and recover them when they go missing. Accountability is only possible when schools and districts have the necessary tools to track and recover mobile computers, at home, at school or on the road.

Computrace is an affordable and effective computer security and tracking solution. Computrace® protects both PCs and Macs, providing reliable visibility into every computer in the district - leading to enhanced security, control and regulatory compliance.

Computrace Helps Campus Police Solve Biggest Equipment Theft Ever at College
A computer room at a Midwest university was broken into twice in two months, resulting in the theft of numerous laptop computers, tablets, monitors and camera equipment. Because Computrace had been installed on some of the stolen computers, Absolute Software was able to supply the University Police Department with critical information, leading to the recovery of over $40,000 worth of stolen goods, making it the "the biggest equipment bust in the history of the campus police department", according to the detective involved.

 

What our customers are saying

We have over 2200 laptops in the hands of high school students at Daviess County Public Schools in Owensboro, KY and every computer has Computrace installed. Our district policy is to allow users to be administrators of their own machines, so they can install software and troubleshoot problems. But we are on a constant vigil for proxy anonymizers and file sharing software. The Computrace "Installed Software" report makes it very easy to police violations. Every morning, the report informs us of the students that have installed banned software overnight and those students are called to the office and disciplined. 

– Susan Smith,
Daviess County Public Schools
