*The power scheduling is clunky and if you don't follow the guide, you're likely to shut whole groups down immediately.

The interface doesn't make it clear how to do this so trial and error is needed. Sometimes you'll want to apply a policy constantly during a period of time (eg mute sound) but sometimes you'll want to trigger it at a certain time and nothing else ( WOL, Shutdown, Restart). *The scheduling module is not as intuitive as you'd hope. It's also come in much cheaper than Securus. The teachers love the modules we have enabled access to so far. The safeguarding looks every bit as good as Securus but with a quicker and arguably more intuitive interface. I've come back to it in the past few weeks and gotten it off the ground at 2 sites and I'm pleased with everything so far. I trialled back in February after seeing senso at BETT in 2018 and again in 2019. I used Impero in a previous life and was pleased with it but have heard from various sources that it's on the slide both in terms of reliability and value.

The sites I'm deploying to don't use classroom management software at the moment so that is all a brilliant bonus for them. I thought this would be a good time to chip in - I've just made the switch from Securus to Senso for safeguarding and am rolling it out to 6 sites over a period of a couple of months. Senso did mention there's an option for a third party to do the log analysis so could be an option? Impero seem to have other Safeguarding packages too but there's too much marketing and product names to keep up with what actually does what. However the latter does give some useful context with the screenshots and history logging so works well alongside.ĭownside to that is two costs for both solutions though.

This then enables us to choose the best software for classroom management without affecting safeguarding.Īfter testing Senso, Impero and NetSupport my school found them all lacking when it came safeguarding (IIRC, the main criticisms being the amount of time it takes to go through the logs, the inability to detect patterns over time and the huge number of false positives).We do similar with e-Safe and Impero.Į-Safe analyse the logs for us and avoids the bulk of the false positives we get from Impero. My school decided to separate out safeguarding from the classroom management software by going with Smoothwall's Visigo for the former. Product Owner for Student Safety and Wellbeing Please do send me a PM if I can help in any way. What's more, with the introduction of our brand new browser console, managing captures is more intuitive and easy to use than ever! We also pride ourselves on having the most sophisticated and extensive libraries, working with numerous expert charities and organisations in the field. To our knowledge, Senso does not offer this as part of their product suite and this may be where you're seeing these additional charges. Impero EdAware however, is our separate case management and safeguarding solution which allows you to report and document concerns, which seamlessly integrates with EdProtect (online safety, keyowrds + more).

Impero Education Pro comprises of three modules of EdAdmin, EdProtect and EdTeach and aren't charged additionally, rather they are separated for you to customise your suite of products. If Senso's safeguarding tools has the functionailty built in, it will strengthen my case for going with Senso as the cost will come in much cheaper.Hi Cthulhu, However, we were under the impression our initial quote would include everything and now we've been slapped with additional charges for Edaware and Edprotect. Our Safeguarding Office has her eyes set on Impero and refusing to look at anything else. Does the Senso safeguarding tools come with similar functionality to Impero Edaware and Edprotect?
