Mrs. Councill utilizes Parallels Toolbox to problem-solve issues she runs into while teaching.

“Downloading videos is hard when the school system blocks so many websites. Parallels Toolbox gives me the ability to do that easily and consistently with the Download Video tool.”

“I love Presentation Mode for teaching. I often use my personal laptop to present in class or during club or parent meetings. I have my iMessages from my iPhone go directly to my laptop. I never have to worry about notifications popping up during meetings or for my messy desktop to be seen with my embarrassing file-naming!

“I help produce my school’s pep rally, and we needed audio files to mash up for different parts of the school rally and for the dance-off. We had used several different programs in the past, but they were not consistently working, and the school system blocks websites regularly. I tried the Download Audio and Download Video tools and was incredibly impressed by the ease and reliability of these tools. They were so fast, too! I showed my colleagues and they were amazed. One of them purchased Parallels Toolbox immediately.”

“There are a lot of other tools that are so easily used in my curriculum, like Record Audio, Make GIF, and Resize Images.”
