Faronics Press Room

SAN RAMON, CA, October 11, 2007 — Faronics is excited to announce that Insight, Faronics’
classroom management solution, has won the 2007 EDDIE Award for Best Classroom Management
Software. The EDDIE Awards are given every year by ComputED, a San Diego based organization
that has been serving the educational software community for over 12 years. With a focus on
programs that provide teachers with the technology required to foster educational excellence, the
2007 EDDIE Awards recognized Faronics Insight for enhancing the classroom curriculum and
improving teacher productivity.

Faronics Insight empowers teachers with full control over classroom computers and student attention.
Teachers love the fact that they can share their screen with students, provide remote assistance to
students from a central console, and monitor classroom screens to ensure students are on task.
Students have the ability to request and receive help directly in their workstation session, and have
their voice heard through classroom voting. With the power to disable applications, Internet access,
and blank student screens, teachers can quickly gain student attention when required.
“The ability to monitor student activities strengthens teaching effectiveness and ensures that students
are kept on task,” said Guillermo Tellez, Product Manager for Insight. “But Insight’s greatest strength
is that it has the power to create classroom environments where technology accelerates the learning
experience.”

A free, fully functional 30-day evaluation version of Insight can be downloaded at www.faronics.com
for the Windows operating system. Designed with teachers in mind, Faronics Insight is changing
the way technology is viewed in the classroom for both students and teachers alike.
