Real testimonials from our clients
My overall experience has been excellent. Netop has resolved all the issues we faced, from slow network performance to misaligned mouse pointers, allowing us to make significant progress. I will be praising Netop for a long time to come!
It’s an absolutely fantastic piece of software—the quickest decision I’ve made after trialing it. Extremely reliable and versatile, it has more features than anything else I’ve seen, and new ones are added regularly. Their customer service was second to none when I needed to use the support. They support remotely and do not let things drop until solutions have been found.
I love the ability to keep an eye on students as they work, being able to lock down the computers, and using the “run” applications to assist in software installs across a lab.
