Tidebreak: TeamSpot Details

TeamSpot

The Details.

Independent work area: Large displays driven by TeamSpot software provide a public worksurface for participants
Intuitive control: TeamSpot lets users “jump” a cursor from their laptop to a shared worksurface and take control with their mouse and keyboard
Everyone pitches in: No cumbersome or confusing lockout controls, multiple users can “drive” the worksurface at the same time
Shadow Cusors: Multiple users can be individually tracked as they work on the same worksurface, with each individual identified by a unique color and personal initials
Draw on the screen: Digital annotation features are compatible with any interactive whiteboards
Cross-application: Compatible with virtually all standard software applications

Drag and drop transfer: Send files, folders and weblinks to individuals or the entire group
Group-wide cut and paste: Copy text from one computer and paste it in on another
Share a screen: Send a desktop to the shared worksurface, view-only or interactive
Memorable whiteboard: Use with a whiteboard capture system (e.g. Luidia eBeam) to store whiteboard “snapshots” directly to archive

Capture as you go: Session archive tracks information as the group shares content
Document archive: Store versions of work documents in the archive
Remember things: Add short notes to the archive
Download at session end: Download archive when user disconnects, or at any time during session

Self service: Each TeamSpot is self-contained, with a built-in webserver to deliver Client software
Simple setup: No Client configuration necessary, just install and connect to a TeamSpot
Quick re-join: Client remembers each TeamSpot joined, providing a simple re-join option
Beginner-friendly: Context-sensitive online help assists first-time users
Ready Client™: Pre-configured Client software on a USB drive joins the designated TeamSpot automatically

End-to-end encryption: SSL encrypted communications between Client and Host prevents outsider eavesdropping
Room-aware authentication: Display code ensures that only those physically present can join a session
No special hardware required: TeamSpot is a software-only solution and works with commonly available large displays, computers and networks
Cross-platform: Supports both Windows, Macintosh OSX computers as Host or Client

Simple software maintenance: Client and Host can be dynamically loaded from network directory
Capture usage statistics: Host uploads usage statistics to standard designated local server
Works for managed devices: Compatible with Deep Freeze and other automated system refresh solutions

Installs in minutes: Host software can be installed and configured in less than 10 minutes
Track usage behavior: TideScope utility shows which services are actually utilized
No need to distribute clients: Host distributes Client software to users directly; no need to manually distribute software to users

Note that installations can freely mix Windows and OS X; for example, an OS X Client works with a Windows Host.
