In their own words
Classwize
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.
Veyon
Veyon is classroom management software for teachers, school authorities, and IT administrators using Windows and Linux computers.

Administrators can perform remote power actions and centrally log users in or out on computers or groups. Veyon supports LDAP and Active Directory, while commercial add-ons include Internet Access Control, Auvidus device controls, Chat, an Entra ID connector, network discovery, and Screen Recorder. The maker says it runs directly on endpoints without mandatory cloud dependence and can operate on customer infrastructure. Veyon Core is open source under GPLv2 and free. Commercial add-ons use annual 12-month or perpetual licenses, with quotes based on organization and deployment details. The pricing note says paid plans start at €250/yr.
