Consideration 1: Energy efficiency
Old technology has hidden costs
• Significantly lower power usage: The latest SMART Board technology uses as little as 79 watts during operation — a major reduction compared to older panels drawing 240+ watts.
• Big savings for schools: A typical school with 30 legacy displays can save up to £30,000* in energy costs.
• Supports sustainability goals: Reduces your carbon footprint and helps you meet the DfE's new sustainability policy guidelines.
Consideration 2: A trusted brand
Quality and support really matter
• Reliable and long-lasting: SMART Interactive Whiteboards are tested up to 50,000 hours, extending refresh cycles by years.
• Is peace of mind an added extra?: SMART Boards come with a 5-year on-site warranty and SMART's 24/7 support included as standard.
• Reduced upkeep costs: SMART displays are designed for durability, reducing the need for frequent repairs or replacements.
Consideration 3: Ease of use
One platform. Simple.
• Remote Management: Manage, monitor, and update displays across the entire organisation from a single, secure platform.
• Remote efficiency: Schedule power settings, push updates, and troubleshoot issues without needing to be on-site.
• Minimise disruptions: Reduce classroom interruptions and keep signage and displays running smoothly — all while saving valuable IT time and budget.
