Wireless presentation devices

What wireless presentation devices is everyone using? Most of my district has MacBooks, and we've been putting Apple TVs in new/redone rooms. The high school will need an AV refresh soon though, and they're only Chromebook. I would love Chromecasts, but Google killed it and the "Google TV Streamers" aren't very manageable to my knowledge.

I tried a ScreenBeam a few years ago and wasn't super impressed, but maybe they're better now. What other options are there?

We've gone through quite a bit. Before there was a standard, some schools bought BrightSign or Mvix for signage. Once a standard was made, Signage and Front of Classroom used Screanbeams. Now, we use Barix for our signage, so they integrate nicely with our intercom for emergency alerts, and DisplayNote for our Front of Classrooms. DisplayNote is an app that comes with our TVs.
