In our last blog post, we highlighted how the new EchoSystem 5.4 release makes active learning and lecture capture easier for instructors and students.

Never fear – we haven’t forgotten about system administrators who work behind-the-scenes to support and maintain their institution’s Echo360 deployment along with countless other day-to-day duties.

Previously we outlined 4 out of 7 things you can do with EchoSystem 5.4 that benefit instructors and students.

Today we continue the countdown by introducing the enhancements in our latest release designed to make life easier for busy system administrators:

1.     Capture Reliably

We’ve migrated to a new multi-threaded, high-performance HTTP web server resulting in     improved performance and capture reliability.

2.    Save and Delete Faster

Cut storage costs.  Significant improvements to the EchoSystem database reduce storage requirements by 35%.  This reduces your IT budget while making it easier and more efficient to save and delete records in the system.

3.    Easily Upgrade Your Technology Backend

Easily upgrade to the latest and greatest technologies and make your EchoSystem implementation better, faster and stronger. EchoSystem 5.4 features a host of new technology support including Internet Explorer 10, SQL Server 2012, MySQL 5.6, Jetty 9 and Java 7, allowing you to upgrade your EchoSystem in lockstep with your institution’s IT plans.
