The scalability large school districts need

Hundreds of schools, thousands of classes, hundreds of thousands of students. No problem

When you have hundreds of thousands of devices on your school district network, you need solutions that can scale without slowing things down. The combination of our robust cloud-hosted architecture and our proprietary on-device agents mean you can throw all your devices and all your traffic at Lightspeed, and we’ll scale to handle it without bottlenecks.

"Lightspeed Systems offers an excellent suite of products for K12 Education. We have been impressed with their thoughtfully designed solutions and their quick response to customer feedback with tangible improvements."

The delegated administration large school districts need

We help break down silos and empower teams—without losing centralized control

With multiple people involved in network management, system administration, student safety, device deployments, and app management, you need to delegate. But you also need to maintain centralized control and access minimization.

Lightspeed’s platform-wide Admin Roles functionality lets you confidently delegate administration and visibility to perform specific functions or see only specific data.

"Lightspeed products have become integral to our district's operations. The filtering, classroom, alert, MDM, and insight tools all play a vital role in achieving our core mission: taking care of our students."

Rich Perkins Director of Information Services and Network Security, Clay County Schools

The integration & interoperability large school districts need

Consolidate tools to save time and drive efficiency, without compromising

The Lightspeed platform houses the most comprehensive data on how your school district technology is used—from user activity to app ROI to compliance. How you use that data is up to you. We’ve built our platform to provide the insights you need right in the interface or to easily export to your own BI tool or data warehouse.

"We like being able to partner with one vendor for multiple solutions for efficiency and data sharing. The data and functions are integrated for ease of use, and we love the concept of being able to access and integrate everything from one dashboard."

Monika Davis Chief Information Officer (Former), Dekalb County School District
