How does Proclaim perform in a DIL (Disconnected, Intermittent, Low bandwidth) environment?

Josh

My church is moving to a school where we won't have a dedicated internet connection.  We're currently evaluating presentation software and Proclaim looks pretty sweet.  However, what we're wondering is how this software will perform off of something like a mobile broadband device.

What's more, we're not certain as to how strong the mobile broadband signal will be.  At what points does Proclaim require an internet connection?  Would we lose any functionality without a high quality (or at all) dedicated connection during the service?

HI Josh,

If you can do without signals to mobile devices then you shouldn't really have problems with the using Proclaim.

Presumably you won't be doing your service preparation in the school so not having Wi-Fi there won't be a problem at that stage. Just make sure that your presentation is fully synced before leaving the place/s you do the preparation.

It might be a good idea to set a time limit for members of your team to ensure that you all get the presentation finished and synced in good time for the service.

Minor updates can be done on site because all your resources (from previous presentations) are stored locally. This means that your mobile internet can be reserved for real emergency use. The secret is in the preparation.
