New Subscription Pricing
In our quest to offer pricing that works for schools with tight budgets, we have added the option of annual subscription pricing to Vision, Surf-Lock, and Pointer. The subscription works very similar to a magazine subscription: You subscribe for a year, and the software operates for the year that you subscribe. After one year, the software stops working unless you either re-subscribe or purchase a license. Subscription pricing may be a better fit for your school if your budget is very limited or your classrooms are in transition. To find out more, call 866.725.7833 or email sales.us@genevalogic.com.

Special Combo $3,999
For a limited time, buy a K-12 site license of Vision (classroom management software), Surf-Lock (web locking), Pointer (on-screen annotation). Then choose either Protect-On (student computer security) or Print-Limit (print management software) and you can add a mimio device for only $499!

Mimio turns ANY whiteboard into an affordable, interactive whiteboard. Show your whiteboard lesson on every screen while you manage and control student computers. To find out more, visit us on the web or call us toll free at 866.725.7833.
