App Guides Students to Campus IT Resources
IT monitoring company LabStats has introduced LabFind, a mobile app that allows students to search for and navigate to campus IT resources, such as computers, printers, projectors, whiteboards, study spaces and more. Searches can be filtered by specific needs: For example, a student looking for specialized software can use the app to find computer stations where that tool is available.
LabFind is available for free for Android and iOS devices, and can be used on campuses using LabStats monitoring software.
"We expect that LabFind will empower lT teams to improve students' access to critical digital tools and workspaces with far less waste," said John Felushko, product manager at LabStats, in a statement. "With LabFind providing transparency to students and LabStats providing rich information about usage behavior, IT teams can quickly make resources available where and when they will have the largest impact on student success."
