Managing all the technology in classrooms today is no easy feat. Vivi tackles this challenge head-on with Vivi Central, the administrative platform that lets IT teams manage Vivi’s complete suite of tools including wireless screen mirroring, digital signage, announcements, and emergency alerts.
Meet Vivi: A platform designed for education
Vivi’s technology suite is purpose-built for education organizations, which matters when it comes to delivering tools that fit the needs of end users—teachers and students—as well as the technology teams who support them. Here’s an overview of Vivi’s core offerings that are transforming classrooms and school buildings:
- Wireless screen mirroring lets teachers and students easily share content to their classroom displays, whether they are projectors, TVs, or interactive flat panels (IFPs).
- Digital signage lets school administrators share targeted messages across public area and classroom displays, keeping the entire school community connected and informed about what’s happening.
- Emergency alerts deliver visual communications to connected displays campus-wide during critical situations like lockdowns or severe weather to enhance safety.
- Video and text announcements equip school administrators to deliver targeted communications directly to connected displays. Text announcements allow quick, unobtrusive updates, while video adds a personalized touch, ideal for important messages or celebrations.
Vivi Central acts as a single hub for IT Teams to manage each aspect of Vivi’s system, allowing administrators to configure devices, streamline content scheduling for digital signage, track usage, and ensure peak performance.
The power of centralized management
Here are some common challenges school leaders face when managing school technology—and how Vivi Central addresses them:
| Common Challenge | Vivi Solution |
|---|---|
| Tracking device usage across classrooms and buildings. | Centralized device management allows IT teams to monitor and optimize usage across an organization. |
| Deploying updates and maintaining uniform settings is time-consuming. | Automated updates and bulk configuration, managed from a central hub, reduce resource demands on IT teams. |
| Troubleshooting performance issues often require classroom visits and significant time. | Built-in troubleshooting tools speed up issue identification and resolution. |
