Web filtering in today’s schools is about more than blocking websites; it’s about keeping students safe from inappropriate content to things like bullying, self-harm, and violence while still allowing the learning and collaboration mobile technology brings. Whether its protecting take-home devices or keeping parents informed, Lightspeed Systems has you covered, all while making your school or district CIPA-compliant. Our patent-pending Smart Agents give you protection and SSL decryption on all devices, on your network, and all in the cloud.

Lightspeed Analytics™ helps schools make smarter, data-driven decisions by providing them robust reports that answer their toughest questions: Can we save money by eliminating unused or redundant solutions? Which tools are being used, and what tools are not? Are there any rouge apps on our system that are violating student data privacy? And more.

Lightspeed Classroom Management™ helps keep students on task. Sophisticated AI monitors website browsing and provides real-time insights inside the classroom and for distance learning. Teachers can see open browser tabs, view browsing history, monitor screens, send links, and more.

Lightspeed MDM™ allows school IT teams to manage all their devices (Windows, Mac, iOS, Chrome) on and off the school network. Manage integrates with the Apple App Store and Windows Business store portal, includes smart hierarchical distribution, and controls let IT remotely push, revoke, move, manage and report on apps across their schools and devices.

Lightspeed Filter™ (formerly Relay) is a multi-OS, cloud-based web filter. It supports every device including BYOD and 1:1, while on school networks, at home, or anywhere.

Lightspeed Alert™ helps teachers, and admins spot concerning behavior- whether it’s cyberbullying, school violence, self-harm, suicide, and other harmful behaviors.

Lightspeed Platform (Formerly Relay) Reviews

Richard P.

Advanced user of Lightspeed Platform (Formerly Relay)
★★★★★
Lightspeed systems is well designed for all learning environments

What do you like best?

Lightspeed Classroom for teachers, giving teachers control and monitoring students browsing in a classroom or during distant learning. The safety check feature is amazing at identifying possible self harm and violent students. This allows us to early identify and get needed assistance to students that may go unnoticed by other administrative and observational means.

What do you dislike?

Some reporting is not as in depth as I would like. As a security analyst I prefer to be able to dig down in data. Searching for groups that are nested under other groups doesn't not work well.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Plan the rollout and training as well as the structure for filtering (ie. OU). The Google integration is easy to use and allows for intuitive filtering if structured correctly. It has made our process so much easier and streamlined many of the "how we do business" processes.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Distant learning filtering for K-12, Classroom monitoring for teachers, safety checks of students for self harm and violence. Additionally the administration was able to have reporting at their fingertips.
