Get the most from your investment

With SMART Vantage, you get information on the SMART Board interactive whiteboard systems in your school or district, including how they're used and how much time remains before their projector bulbs need replacement. This data can help you reduce technology downtime by letting you know in advance when to perform maintenance. You can also generate reports, compare data, and even set schedules for powering SMART Board interactive whiteboard systems on and off.

Make sound decisions for the future

It's easier to make informed decisions when you have the right data to guide you – that's why our technology-management software is an ideal planning tool. You get details on how much use your interactive whiteboard systems are getting and which software applications are used most often. This information can help you make data-based decisions on how to allocate technology, funding and professional development.

Easy to use and accessible anytime

SMART Vantage software is available as an annual subscription. The software is easy to use and easy to access through a web browser. You and your team can log in anytime to view information on the SMART Board interactive whiteboard systems connected to your network. And, since the software subscription is renewed each year, you can be confident that you always have access to the latest features and upgrades.
