October 2016: Prison Tablets
At the last annual RSAT meeting, we learned about tablets to connect inmates to a variety of material for education, treatment, recreation and more. Which companies should we look at in deciding which tablets to use?

RE:October 2016: Prison Tablets
At the meeting, we heard from an official from Rikers Island, New York City’s jail. That jail uses tablets from American Prison Data System (APDS). http://apdscorporate.com

The following are also correctional tablet companies:

Edovo https://edovo.com

Global Tel-Link http://www.gtl.net/

IDS https://www.ids615.com

JPay http://www.jpay.com/

Securus https://www.securustablet.com

Telmate http://www.telmate.com/

We would be happy to hear from you if you have had any experience with any of the above and share your appraisals of their products and how they work in your facility.
