BrightLink® 697Ui
Get Started with BrightLink
BrightLink is a meeting room and classroom productivity tool that allows you to create a digital whiteboard
wherever you need it. Add new blank pages and keep writing instead of erasing your ideas. Insert images, project
your content from smartphones, tablets, or laptops, and add annotations. Save your notes and ideas, and share them
via email without a computer.
