GigaTribe has announced the rollout of new features designated for the upcoming school year. The ability to share class documents and share course materials is a major improvement from previous releases.
GigaTribe has also enhanced video streaming by integrating DivX. Students can now instantly stream DivX videos. GigaTribe features a secure “Private Area” that enables students to remotely access entire personal video libraries from their apartment, dorm, Starbucks etc leveraging a web browser.

Excitement is high within the GigaTribe corporate offices. “GigaTribe is clearly the best solution to share private files safely. It helps schools save precious time and money,” said Alexis Leseigneur, Gigatribe CTO and co-founder. “GigaTribe is already a must-have software for teachers and students alike, especially during the ‘Back to School’ period.”

Cost
GigaTribe is very inexpensive, which benefits the ever shrinking educational budgets facing most counties and school districts across the US. GigaTribe “Ultimate” is priced at only $4.99/month or $29.95 a year, GigaTribe Basic is available for free.
 

 
The “Back to School” suite of features include the following enhancements:
• Training Videos: Educational institutions now have the ability to post private teacher training videos complete with real children in a classroom setting, without having to spend the time and money to blur children’s faces, as needed with other un-secure networks.
• Teachers Collaboration: Teachers can share courses materials with other teachers.
• Remote Access: Students can remotely access their computers while on campus, at the library, café, or other location with WiFi.
• Student Collaboration: Students can share study materials, videos, and photos with classmates online.
• DivX video: Video can be streamed for instant viewing.
