Remote access for education.
Students get 24/7 access to lab computers. Instructors share screens for remote teaching. Campus IT fixes issues without walking between buildings — same workstation, anywhere.
Access gaps that affect everyone.
From overworked IT teams to remote students, four constraints schools face every term.
Limited lab hours
Students need specialised software on campus computers, but lab hours are restricted. Evening and weekend access is often impossible.
Remote students left behind
Distance learners and students who can't be on campus don't have the same tools as their peers. That's a real disadvantage.
IT support spread too thin
Campus IT teams manage thousands of devices across multiple buildings. Walking to each one for troubleshooting kills the day.
Students have different devices
Chromebooks, MacBooks, Windows laptops, tablets. Getting everyone access to the same tools regardless of device is a headache.
Campus resources, available anywhere.
Six ways GoDesk extends a computer lab to wherever the student is.
Access lab computers remotely
Students connect to lab workstations from their dorm, home, or anywhere with internet. Run the software without being on campus.
Screen sharing for teaching
Instructors share their screen for live demos, or view a student's screen to provide hands-on guidance during remote office hours.
Efficient campus IT support
IT staff resolve issues across campus from one location. No more walking between buildings to fix a frozen mouse.
