Schools can also use this insight, such as identifying localized trends and issues, to educate students about being good digital citizens and support student wellbeing.

Impero EdLink is a cross-platform solution, compatible with iOS, ChromeOS and Android, so schools and districts can manage an assortment of school-owned and student-owned mobile devices effectively.

Using Impero EdLink alongside Impero Education Pro ensures that IT teams have access to a complete suite of network admin tools.
