Re: Laptop Preventive Measures

[Ng DiHui]

To all,

My name is Ng DiHui and I am from Malaysia. Previously, I was one of the member for my university's Student Representative Council.

Since I be in the board, I realized that the students lost their laptop frequently and there are reports almost weekly.

Recently, the theft case happens more rampantly than before. Students feel unsafe with their belonging leaving in house and carry their laptop everywhere they go.

Some of them are poor students and they bought the laptop with their parents hard earned money. I very pity them and really want to help them, and prevent the theft being so violent.

I found your web service and found that it is very useful in preventing theft cases in my university. May I know if it is applicable in Malaysia?

The pro-package is quite expensive for the students to sign up for it.

Can you lower the price, since it is to help them. It might not as complicated or multi task as your package offered.

I hope the students will get informed if their laptop were stolen and leave their apartment. Is it possible?


Thank you. Hope to hear from you.

I don't think they need a Pro account. You can track 3 devices for free & they could upgrade if their laptop was stolen. There are only a few extra features that Pro gives you it works fine for free accounts.

If you are looking to use one account & manage the devices for the students you can contact the Prey team & discuss educational pricing. The pricing plans page (http://preyproject.com/plans) has a link to contact the team to enquire about educational/ non-profit pricing.

I wonder if the university could purchase some promo codes (at reduced educational rates) for the student to use for buying Pro accounts.
The contact link may illicit a quicker response from the Prey team compared to this mailing list.
