CachePilot Benefits

"The Key benefits are the speed of access that the cache enables and the ability to pre-load the device with content. Just plug it into the network, give it an IP address and away you go!" - David Raymond, Northern Grid

CachePilot benefits teachers and content providers alike:

Increased Lesson Productivity
CachePilot's intelligent caching stores web pages - even entire websites - in the product itself. Information can then be delivered at network speed and lesson productivity won't depend on the quality of your school's Internet connection.

Confidence that Internet content is kept-up-to-date
CachePilot automatically updates sites, usually on a daily or weekly basis.

Freedom to choose eLearning software content from the best names in the business
Equiinet works with the best interactive content suppliers including Espresso, KnowledgeBox, Sherston and Kar2ouche - award-winning companies whose services are used by thousands of schools. The content from these and many other top software providers can be pre-loaded onto your CachePilot, so that you can access rich media content and video instantly and eLearning becomes reliable, stimulating and engaging.

Hassle-free subscription updates for your eLearning software
The best eLearning content changes frequently. CachePilot ensures that the eLearning packages held at your school are automatically updated at a pre-set time every week.

Less classroom disruption
Lessons are no longer disrupted if websites aren't available, or because pages take a long time to appear. Content is stored locally and delivered instantly, meaning pupils remain focused.

Reduction in bandwidth usage = Cost Saving!
Bandwidth is used more economically by pre-caching eLearning content.

Added peace of mind with supplementary filtering
Ability to add Secure Computing's filtering tool to block inappropriate websites or content.

Secure automatic content updates
Equiinet has devised a unique method of automatically updating content. By using this method, digital content must be signed for before the local site gets updated, meaning that content providers can ensure that nobody can update their content with material that has not been distributed by them.

Improved performace when using interactive whiteboards
Having CachePilot installed makes it possible to use a whole raft of teaching and learning content effectively. It is particularly effective in whole class teaching, where it will deliver content to interactive whiteboards as well as to suites of PCs at network speed.
