Read full descriptionHide full description
The SMART Board® Interactive Displays with SMART iQ™ 4 can receive emergency messages via the Common Alert Protocol (CAP) thanks to the pre-installed SMART Control App. With the SMART CAP Alert app, you can send these emergency messages to a SMART Board® Interactive Display to demonstrate how SMART Control works. In this way, SMART Channel Partners can easily demonstrate the added value of the integration of the Common Alert Protocol (CAP) into the SMART Board® Interactive Displays.

The clearest difference is device support: Meraki at 3 against SMART CAP Alert's 1. Meraki also leads on iOS requirement (14 vs 16.6). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
