Announcing the Mimio/Epson Partnership for MimioStudio Classroom Software

Posted by Steve Mefford on May 15, 2014 2:55:00 AM


Mimio and Epson are announcing today a partnership whereby Epson will offer MimioStudio for sale with Epson BrightLink interactive projectors.  This partnership is for US and Canada.  It will help to increase Mimio’s brand awareness as well as drive the growth of Mimio’s presence in the education marketplace.   

Effective today, Epson will be able to sell MimioStudio software licenses with Epson BrightLink interactive projectors to the education market. The software may also be purchased separately by existing Epson BrightLink customers.  Per the agreement, Epson’s reseller network will only be selling MimioStudio software licenses. 

Below are the benefits of the Epson partnership to you:

  • If you currently are an Epson BrightLink provider, bundling MimioStudio software just got easier.
  • If you are not an Epson reseller, we believe this partnership will provide more opportunities to sell MimioMobile and our hardware products into Epson installations.
  • Partnering with the number-one selling projector brand worldwide, we foresee an increase in Mimio’s brand recognition as well as incremental hardware and software sales to you.

The joint Mimio/Epson press release will be available on our website here later this morning, May 15th.  If you have any questions regarding this partnership, please contact your Mimio Territory Manager.

Updated Pricing Doc Available NOW

Posted by Steve Mefford on May 6, 2014 9:00:00 AM

We'd like to provide you with the updated price sheet with some corrections as well as some changes from the January pricelist.  

In general, Mimio will be providing a pricelist twice a year – January and June. By referring to the date, you will know if you are looking at the latest price sheet. The only variation to this schedule is a new product that comes out during another time of year or a product is taken off of our pricelist.  Therefore as needed, Mimio will update the price sheet in addition to the releases in January and June. 

You can reach out to your Territory Manager or distributor for the latest pricelist reflecting the latest changes.  All changes to the current price list are described below including our decision to retire MimioVote 24:

 

Changes to the current Mimio Pricing Doc:

  • Since the majority of orders are for MimioVote 32, we have decided to no longer sell MimioVote 24.  For all future orders and communication, please let your customers know we only sell MimioVote 32.  If there is a current bid or quote for MimioVote 24, you can speak to your Mimio Territory Manager about if we can honor MimioVote 24. 
  • MimioStudio’s description does not say Annual anymore; we apologize for the confusion in the previous pricing sheet.  When MimioStudio is purchased, it is a lifetime software license.
  • MimioCapture 2 felt eraser replacement pads also are for MimioCapture 3.  This has been included in the description and available in the corresponding section in the pricing doc.
  • The descriptions of the MimioCapture pens now correspond to the correct color of the MimioCapture pens.
  • We are no longer providing district pricing for MimioStudio or MimioMobile.  If you need a district price for our software or mobile app, you can discuss this price with your Mimio Territory Manager or distributor.

 

Answers to questions that have come up:

  • We no longer are offering the MimioHub+MimioStudio bundle. If someone is interested in these items, they can purchase the MimioHub and MimioStudio classroom license separately.
  • We are not selling the MimioView Microscope Adapter separately from the initial purchase of the MimioView – if something urgent comes up, reach out to your Mimio Territory Manager or distributor.
  • We are not selling the tip of the MimioProjector Pen.  If a customer needs a replacement, they can purchase a new MimioProjector Pen.
  • The MimioTeach 2 pack security bracket comes with 2 pieces but is for 1 MimioTeach.
  • NA and International power supplies for MimioTeach are available separately for purchase, but MimioTeach automatically comes with the International Power Supply.

If after receiving this pricing doc you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to your Mimio Territory Manager or distributor.  Happy Tuesday!

New Pricing Doc Available to YOU!

Posted by Steve Mefford on Jan 29, 2014 3:45:00 PM

Before the start of Q1 tradeshow season, we wanted to provide you with our up to date pricing sheet.  We will be providing this to you twice a year – January and June with what has been updated from the previous pricelist.  By referring to the date, you will know if you are looking at the latest price sheet. The only variation to this schedule is if we have a new product that comes out during another time of year and therefore Mimio will need to update the price sheet in addition to the releases in January and June. 

With this said, you can reach out to your Territory Manager or distributor for the latest pricelist.  Please note, that there have been significant changes to this pricelist which include:

 

Format

o   We’ve updated the format based on some requests which include:

  •   Segmented by interactive display, accessory, bundles, software, spares and legacy products
  •   Added descriptions of each of the products
  •   Printable view for two pages

 

Added

o   MimioProjector LAN Card (in SPARES: MimioProjector) – only to be ordered with a new MimioProjector that supports this LAN Card insert

o   MimioProjector Remote (in SPARES: MimioProjector)

o   Software Licenses (in MIMIOCLASSROOM: Software Licenses)

  •   Added MimioMobile and MimioStudio District Licenses SKUs
  •   Added MimioMobile Multi-Year License Discounts

o   Added back in MimioVote Replacement Battery Kit

o   Added SKU for MimioView Accessory Cable

o   Added SKU for MimioTeach Security Brackets

o   Added SKU for MimioTeach Power Supply – International

o   Added SKU for MimioCapture 2 Recharging Tray

o   Added SKU for MimioCapture 2 Connector Cable


Removed

o   The Training section since training will now be done by you, our Reseller Partners

o   MimioScience licenses since this is no longer a product Mimio owns

o   MimioPad Replacement Stylus for MimioPad 1

 

Updated

o   Software Licenses for MimioMobile and MimioStudio all have new SKUs

o   MimioBoard ME77 and ME87 are being discontinued so have been put in the Legacy MimioClassroom Products – While Supplies Last.  This is not due to the quality of these boards, but rather with the transition to the new warehouse, the logistics and cost within this new facility and the lower than expected volume of product sales made this product not financially practical. 

o   Although bundle quantity discounts are not listed, if you have an outstanding SOR or have a special need for bundle quantity discounts, please speak to your Mimio Territory Manager.

o   After review of our software licensing cost, we have determined to maintain an equivalent margin to our Reseller Partners in subsequent years after the initial purchase.

o   Change in price of MimioProjector spares/accessories


If after receiving this pricing doc you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to your Mimio Territory Manager or distributor.  Thank you for your patience as we update and tailor this document to suite your needs.

Headsprout Acquired by Cambium Learning

Posted by Steve Mefford on Jan 3, 2014 2:00:00 PM

Skyview Capital LLC has completed the sale of Headsprout®, developers of the MimioReading™ classroom suite and MimioScience™ online instructional software business unit, to Cambium Learning® Group, Inc., a leading educational solutions and services company.  As you recall, Skyview Capital acquired the online curriculum programs as part of its acquisition of Mimio, in July 2013.

 

Cambium Learning, a highly respected organization within the education marketplace is comprised of four stellar business units: Voyager/Sopris Learning; Learning A–Z®; ExploreLearning®; Kurzweil Educational Systems® and IntelliTools®.   Together, these divisions provide best-in-class intervention and supplemental instructional materials; gold-standard professional development and school-improvement services; breakthrough technology solutions for online learning and professional support; valid and reliable assessments; and proven materials to support a positive and safe school environment.

 

We are excited about the opportunity for Headsprout to grow within Cambium Learning.  To learn more about the sale, please see the Press Release.  Since Skyview has divested in the Headsprout business, MimioScience and MimioReading are no longer products that are part of Mimio’s portfolio. Therefore, with the announcement of this sale, Mimio no longer is offering these products for sale to its Reseller Partners as part of the Mimio product offering.  The Mimio Partner Referral program for Mimio Reading is also being discontinued.  If you have any further questions regarding the sale of Headsprout, please feel free to reach out to your Mimio Territory Manager or me by email steve.mefford@mimio.com or by phone 630.406.6145.

MimioStudio 11.1 is Here!

Posted by Steve Mefford on Dec 19, 2013 9:00:00 AM

We’re very pleased to announce the release of MimioStudio 11.1 software on the website. This important software release adds enforcement of software licenses to MimioStudio.  With this update, there are several items your customers may have questions about when they update to MimioStudio 11.1 which we wanted to make you aware of:

  • We are no longer including license codes with hardware purchases.  Connecting the hardware to the computer will continue to activate MimioStudio software.
  • Due to the above, we have enabled additional features in the limited version (Gallery and Activity Wizard) to support content creation for Mimio Home users.
  • All NEW MimioMobile or MimioStudio license codes will only work with MimioStudio 11.1.  If the customer needs a license code for a previous version (prior to 11.1), they will need to contact customer support and we will fulfill that request.  It should be noted that all previously distributed license codes will continue to work with MimioStudio 11.1.
  • If the user does not either connect to the internet which automatically verifies User or Site licenses or connect a Mimio hardware device, then their MimioStudio software will revert back to the Limited version after a period of 15 days.

To learn more about MimioStudio 11.1 licensing, click here.  To download MimioStudio 11.1 or to review the release notes, please go to the MimioStudio Software Downloads page.
