Classwize vs NetSupport School

Classwize gives teachers a real-time view of students’ online activity and tools to manage it during class. Teachers can spot off-task use, block or unblock websites, close tabs, and pause internet access for a class, group, or individual students. They can choose sites and apps ahead of a lesson, then open resources on all student devices or selected devices. The product supports managed BYOD for Chrome, Windows, and macOS. Schools can sync Google Classroom classes, assigned students, and teachers. Linewize says the Google connection reads only the specific data required and cannot access or change other Google Workspace data. The product sheet describes detailed user reports and collaborative classroom tools. The product page displays SOC 2 Type I, SOC 2 Type II, and 1EdTech TrustEd Apps Certified badges. Training courses and video tutorials are available through Qoria’s Academy. Classwize is presented for schools and districts; prospective customers can request a demo, and pricing is on request.

NetSupport School is classroom-management and student-monitoring software for teaching, managing devices, and assessment. Teachers can monitor student screens, applications, websites, typing, and collaboration in adjustable thumbnails, then remotely control screens or blank and lock selected devices. For instruction, they can share screens, applications, presentations, videos, and websites with annotation tools. File transfer supports sending files and folders to students and collecting files from them. The software supports mixed-platform classes across Windows, Mac, Chromebooks, Android, and iOS. SIS mode integrates with ClassLink OneRoster and Google Classroom, but requires the NetSupport Connectivity Server installed on Windows Server. A 30-day trial supports up to 40 devices, includes all features, and does not require a credit card. Pricing is available on request; licensing is device-based, and a 100-machine deployment requires a 100-user license even when loaded from a server. Pricing includes free weekday support across global time zones and online training. The Android student app supports Android tablets running version 12 or later, with arm64-v8a on versions from 15.10.0003.
