Frequently asked questions

  • Can multiple students use different tools on the SMART Board GX Plus at the same time?
    Yes. The SMART Boards, including GX Plus, are the only interactive displays with true Simultaneous Tool Differentiation; one student can erase whilst another writes or moves an object simultaneously, and the display correctly recognises each input. Most interactive displays only register one tool at a time, causing an eraser and a pen to conflict.
  • Does the SMART Board GX Plus need a separate computer?
    No. The SMART Board GX Plus has embedded Android computing built in, so teachers can start teaching immediately without connecting a laptop or external device. Connecting an external device is still possible via cable or wireless options such as SMART Mirror. The GX Plus is EDLA licensed, meaning that FE/HE tutors can pull content from their Google ecosystem for instruction on the GX Plus. The GX Plus also features a powerful whiteboard for collaboration, SMART Mirror for teacher-student engagement and SMART Ink for interactivity and annotations.
  • Is the SMART Board GX Plus EDLA-licenced?
    Yes. The SMART Board GX Plus is EDLA-licensed by Google, giving schools verified Google Workspace and Microsoft integrations on a secure, education-ready Android platform built specifically for classroom use.
  • How long has SMART been building interactive displays?
    SMART Technologies invented the interactive whiteboard nearly 40 years ago and remains the category leader today. The SMART Board GX Plus is built on four decades of pedagogy-focused design, not just display hardware.
  • Can SMART Ink on the GX Plus save directly into Word and PDF files?
    Yes. SMART Ink on the SMART Board GX Plus writes directly into the original Microsoft Office or PDF file, not a separate overlay or proprietary format, so notes stay intact no matter where the file is opened next.
  • What support is included with the SMART Board GX Plus?
    Every SMART Board GX Plus purchase includes warranty options up to 7 years, 24/7 global technical support and advanced replacement shipping.
  • Is the SMART Board GX Plus energy-efficient?
    Yes. The SMART Board GX Plus is more energy efficient than 93% of competing 75" ENERGY STAR-certified interactive displays globally, making it one of the most environmentally responsible interactive displays available for classrooms today.
