Historically, NetSupport struggled on non-Windows devices. V15 changes the narrative.

Verdict: If you are a Windows lab, buy it. If you are mixed environment, test the Chromebook client first, but it will likely pass.

The first thing you notice is the UI overhaul. Version 14 felt like a Windows XP utility; version 15 feels modern. The Classroom Console is no longer a cluttered toolbox. It now uses a tabbed ribbon interface (similar to Office 365), which means less clicking through menus to find "Show Screen" or "Send File." Historically, NetSupport struggled on non-Windows devices

The Good: Setup is shockingly fast. Within 10 minutes, I had the Tutor Console installed on my Windows laptop and the Student Client pushed to a lab of 30 Chromebooks and 5 Windows tablets. Cross-platform stability has finally arrived.

Classroom Monitoring and Control The primary function of NetSupport School is visibility. The Tutor Console provides a real-time thumbnail view of every student’s screen. Verdict: If you are a Windows lab, buy it

Interactive Teaching and Collaboration NetSupport School 15 is not just about surveillance; it is a tool for engagement.

Assessment and Feedback The "full work" version includes robust tools for gauging student understanding.

NetSupport does not list public prices (you have to request a quote), but based on industry averages for 2026:

For a school of 500 devices, that's ~$5k perpetual. Compared to GoGuardian Teacher (~$3k/year subscription) or LanSchool (~$6k perpetual), NetSupport sits in the "premium mid-range." It's not cheap, but the perpetual license saves money over three years.
