Those with ‘.edu’ email addresses can access Mersive’s Solstice collaboration platform with special pricing to meet their budget.

Mersive Technologies, a provider of collaboration tools for businesses based in Denver, Colorado, has announced a new method for educational institutions to obtain its Solstice collaboration solution that aligns with their typical budgeting method of 'use-it-or-lose-it'. The Solstice platform is designed for the education sector, enhancing classroom collaboration, enriching lesson content, and fostering student-teacher interaction.

Solstice Pod for Education Features

For educational institutions only, the Solstice Pod for Education is available for purchase outright without needing a subscription as of the Solstice 6 release. The base Solstice Pod for Education comes with all of the Solstice Pod core features and software updates, plus support for the lifetime of the Pod. An introductory version of Solstice Cloud is also included, with upgrade options for analytics and monitoring.

Additional features for Solstice Pods for Education are available à la carte for a one-time fee, such as Solstice Active Learning and Solstice Conference. Solstice Active Learning is a quick-to-deploy and easy-to-use feature that allows instructors to drag-and-drop video feeds among multiple displays. At the same time, Solstice Conferencing makes learning spaces interoperable with all major conferencing platforms by wirelessly connecting conferencing services on users’ laptops. Solstice Pod for Education will be sold directly through Mersive’s certified channel partner network.

“We listened carefully to our customers in the education industry and are happy to make Mersive Solstice easier to specify and deploy in education,” says Joel Carroll, EVP of sales for Mersive. “With this new pricing model for educational institutions, IT and AV pros will be able to take advantage of their budgets for their technology upgrade cycle without ongoing subscription charges.”
