Replaced the projectors in six rooms over the summer break. Install was done when they said it would be. The main difference for us is that staff just walk in and start, no cable, no waiting for a laptop to wake up. One teacher who never touched the old board uses this one every day.

Software and features
What teachers can do with a digital whiteboard
The panel runs on its own, the way a tablet does. No laptop trolley, no login queue, no waiting for IT.
-
Write over anything
Annotate on top of a webpage, a video, a worksheet or a live document, then save the whole thing as it looked on screen.
-
Share any screen
Teachers and students cast from a laptop, tablet or phone without cables or a dongle. Several devices can be up at once for group work.
-
Sign in with a tap
Tap a card and your own files, apps and settings load. Tap out and the next teacher gets theirs. Nothing is left on the board between classes.
-
Live captions and translation
Captions appear as the teacher speaks and can translate on the fly, which matters in classrooms with newcomer students or hearing support needs.
-
Polls and quizzes on the spot
Put a question up mid-lesson and every student answers from their own device. Results show on the board straight away, so you see who is following.
-
Send the lesson home
The board turns what happened in class into notes students can take away, including anything written on screen. Useful for absences and revision.
Included as standard
What comes with every interactive display
-
Three year warranty
Parts and labour covered. No separate service contract to negotiate, and loaner units available for rooms that cannot go without.
-
Installation
Certified technicians mount the panel, run the cabling out of reach and calibrate touch, colour and sound for the room.
-
Free lifetime staff training
A hands-on session for teachers, support staff and IT, with guides left on site and a recording for anyone who missed it. On OneScreen panels, live help and refresher sessions stay free for the life of the display, so new starters and later intakes are covered too.

Writing on it feels close to a whiteboard, which I did not expect. I use the quiz thing a few times a week and it has been good for getting answers out of students who never put a hand up. Took me about a week to stop thinking about how to use it.
DMDanielle MoreauGrade 6 TeacherNine panels across two floors. From my side the useful part is that I can push settings and updates out without going room to room, and teachers sign in with a card so there is no shared password to reset. Barely hear from those rooms now.

See the smart board running before you decide
A specialist shares the interactive display live and works through it with your staff on a call. Writing feel, casting from a laptop, sign-in, the lesson tools. Bring whoever needs convincing and ask whatever you want. It usually takes half an hour.

Questions
Interactive whiteboard questions schools usually ask
-
Nothing, in practice. Smart board, interactive whiteboard, digital whiteboard, electronic whiteboard and interactive flat panel all describe the same thing: a large touchscreen at the front of the room that replaces a projector and a dry erase board. Schools use the names interchangeably and so do we. The only difference worth knowing is age. Boards sold ten years ago were a projector aimed at a touch sensitive surface, which is where the whiteboard name came from. Everything on this page is a single screen with the computer built in, so there is no projector, no bulb to replace and no shadow when someone stands in front of it.
-
No. Every interactive whiteboard here runs on its own. Turn it on and the whiteboard, browser, files and apps are there. You can still connect a laptop or desktop if a teacher prefers it, and most schools keep that option in one or two rooms.
-
Not on current panels. Response times are now under a few milliseconds, so ink appears under the tip rather than trailing it. All the models here also separate pen, finger and palm, so a student can rest a hand on the glass while writing.
-
Between 40 and 50 separate touch points depending on the model, so three or four students can work side by side without the board losing track. For a single teacher presenting, 20 would be enough. The higher counts matter for group work and student collaboration.
-
Yes. Every panel here is Google certified or ships a certified Android module, so Workspace and the Play Store run natively rather than through a workaround. Microsoft 365, Teams and Zoom all run alongside. If your district uses ClassLink or Clever for sign-in, several models sync directly with those too.
-
That is set by policy rather than the hardware. Your IT team decides whether staff can install from the app store themselves or whether apps are pushed centrally. All the panels here support central management, so settings, apps and updates can be controlled across every room from one console.
-
Normal use is light. Screen casting from student devices is the heaviest part, and if a whole class casts at once on older access points you will notice it. All the models here support Wi-Fi 6 or 6E, and you can also run them on wired network. If you are putting panels in a lot of rooms at once, send us your access point details with your request and we will flag anything worth checking.
-
These are commercial grade interactive displays rated for continuous daily use, not consumer televisions. Rated panel life runs to around 50,000 hours, which is well beyond a normal refresh cycle. Every display we supply carries a three year warranty on parts and labour.
-
Mounting, installation and staff training are already included in what we quote. The variable is software licensing, which some brands include permanently and others bill per teacher each year. We show both lines separately so the comparison is real. Send your requirements and you will have the full figure the next business day.
-
Yes. We run an online demo where a specialist walks through the panel live and answers questions from your staff, which is the quickest way to compare two models without waiting on shipping. Ask for a demo in your request and say which models you want to see.

Who we are
Interactive Displays Canada supplies interactive whiteboards and related services to schools, districts and other organisations across Canada. If you have any questions about this policy or about the information we hold, please email us at sales@smart-boards.ca and we will be glad to help.
What we collect
When you send a quote request, book a demo or ask for a call back, we collect the details you enter: your name, email address, phone number, the school or district you represent, and anything you write in the message field, including screen sizes and quantities.
We also collect basic technical information automatically, such as your IP address, browser type, the pages you visit on this site and the referring source, including whether you arrived from an advertisement.
Why we use it
We use your contact details to prepare and send your quote, arrange a demo or call you back, and to follow up on that request. We use technical information to keep the site working, understand which pages are useful and measure the performance of our advertising.
We do not use your information to make automated decisions that affect you, and we do not sell it.
Legal basis and consent
We handle personal information in line with Canadian privacy law, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act. When you send a form, you are giving us permission to contact you about your enquiry. If you would rather we stopped, just email us and we will, with no need to give a reason.
Who we share it with
We share your details only where it is necessary to answer your enquiry or run this site:
- Our customer relationship system, which stores enquiries so our team can respond
- Manufacturers or their distributors, where a specific quote, warranty claim or technical question requires it
- Installation partners, where your project involves scheduling work at your site
- Analytics and advertising providers, which receive technical and usage data rather than the contents of your enquiry
We may also disclose information where the law requires it. We do not sell or rent personal information to anyone.
Cookies and tracking
This site uses cookies and similar technologies to remember your session, measure traffic and attribute enquiries to advertising campaigns. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not work as intended if you do.
Where it is stored and for how long
Information may be processed or stored outside Canada by service providers acting on our behalf, and is therefore subject to the laws of those countries. We keep enquiry records only as long as needed for the purpose they were collected and for our own record-keeping and legal obligations, after which they are deleted.
Your rights
You are welcome to ask what personal information we hold about you, to have it corrected, or to have it deleted. Email sales@smart-boards.ca and we will respond within the time limits set by Canadian privacy law. If you are ever unhappy with how we have handled a request, you can also contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the information we hold, including encrypted connections to this site. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children
This site is intended for staff who research and buy classroom technology rather than for students, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us their information, please let us know and we will remove it promptly.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last revised, and the current version always appears on this page.

About these terms
These terms explain how we work together when you use this website or ask us for a quote. We have kept them as plain as we can. If anything raises a question, please get in touch and we will talk it through with you.
Quotes and pricing
Nothing on this site is an offer to sell or a binding price. Product information, specifications and comparisons are provided for guidance and may change without notice as manufacturers revise their ranges. A quote becomes binding only when we issue it in writing and you accept it, and quotes are valid for the period stated on the document.
Prices exclude applicable taxes and any duties unless the quote says otherwise. Where a quote covers a phased rollout, the terms of that phasing are set out in the quote itself.
Product information and specifications
Specifications shown here are taken from manufacturer documentation current at the time of writing. Manufacturers may alter specifications, model names or availability at any time. Where a detail matters to your decision, ask us to confirm it in writing before you order.
Orders, delivery and installation
Orders are accepted subject to stock and manufacturer lead times, which we confirm on the quote rather than on this page. Delivery and installation dates are scheduled with you and are estimates unless stated otherwise in writing. Access to your site, working power and network provision remain your responsibility unless the quote says we are handling them.
Warranty
Displays we supply carry a three year manufacturer-backed warranty on parts and labour from the date of delivery, unless a different term is stated on your quote. The warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship. It does not cover accidental damage, misuse, unauthorised repair or modification, damage caused by unsuitable power or environment, or normal cosmetic wear. Warranty service is arranged through us. Full manufacturer warranty terms are available on request and are supplied with your order.
Included services
Where a quote states that installation, staff training or ongoing support are included, those services are provided on the terms described in that quote. Support and training arrangements vary by manufacturer, and the specific entitlement for the model you order is confirmed in writing before purchase.
Returns
If you need to return goods that were supplied correctly, please speak to us first so we can arrange it. Items should be unused and in their original packaging, and a restocking charge may apply. Anything faulty is looked after under the warranty above rather than treated as a return.
Third party software and services
Displays include software provided by their manufacturers and, in some cases, by third parties such as Google or Microsoft. Your use of that software is governed by the licence terms of those providers. Licensing arrangements differ by brand, including whether tools are included permanently or renewed periodically, and the arrangement for your chosen model is set out in your quote.
Use of this website
This site is here to help you research and enquire about classroom displays, and you are welcome to use it for that. We do ask that the content is not copied for commercial use or collected by automated means without our permission. Text, images and layout belong to us or our suppliers. Manufacturer names and logos are the trademarks of their respective owners and appear here to identify the products we supply.
Liability
We do not exclude liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded. Subject to that, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, including loss of teaching time, data or anticipated savings, and our total liability in connection with any order is limited to the amount you paid for the goods or services concerned.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the province in which the goods are delivered and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. Disputes are subject to the courts of that province.
Contact
If anything here is unclear, or you would like a copy of these terms alongside your quote, please email us at sales@smart-boards.ca and we will be happy to go through it with you.
