GoGuardian Teacher vs. Learnbeat

We use GoGuardian daily for monitoring students to ensure they are not off task, accessing inappropriate material at school, monitoring students during an assignment and more easily being able to help them if noticing they are struggling or in need of intervention on their work. It has also been used very well during times when schooling has been virtual as it has allowed us to more easily work with students who are not physically on campus.

The support is great. On the rare occasion that I've had to reach out to support they have been very quick to respond and extremely helpful. I've also had teachers reach out directly to support themselves. Most of the time I don't even know that a teacher has reached out to support until after the fact. They always seem satisfied.

At the time we purchased GoGuardian there were no other alternatives that came even close to the functionality of this product. Over time I'm sure that some new products have been released. We, however, have not explored any other software suites for classroom management. We may in the future but for now, we are locked into GoGuardian Teacher.
