Pros

“We use it for everything in the school - communications, attendance and grades, lunch billing, discipline, lesson plans, enrollment, and more!”

Sheila C.

Director of Development

“I appreciate being able to communicate with all of the students and their parents within the Communication means, for it serves as great reminders to hit all deadlines, whether special events, or reminding parents about State Testing. ”

Tina G.

Director of Admissions and Development

“Managing students and teachers is efficient, with simple processes for enrollment, class assignments, and organization, while student information is neatly structured and easy to access.”

Amana B.

Teacher and administrator

Pros

“This applies broadly across Canadian private schools and colleges, where issuing tax receipts is part of normal operations and compliance.”

Natasha T.

Member of the Board

“As a private Christian school in Canada, tax receipting is a standard requirement, not a unique or specialized request.”

Natasha T.

Member of the Board

“We are able to choose and pay for only those modules that are relevant to our school.”

Adam Q.

Registrar

Cons

“We use the system to send texts when there is a delay or cancellation due to weather and constantly have problems with people (staff and parents alike) not receiving the alert.”

Amy D.

Vice Principal

“The only thing I don't like is that copying lesson plans from previous years has a lot of steps. Unless I am missing some training, you have to click through a lot of buttons to find past lessons, then copy, then click back through all the buttons to get to the current week to paste. If you only have to do one lesson, it might be worth it, but if you are trying to copy a week or two for a whole unit, it gets too unmanageable.”

Tiffany M.

First Grade Teacher

“The APP is not great and I do get some parent feedback on not liking how the app looks and is not super useable on their phones, specifically the glitching and finding grades, assignments, and other features, including the bill pay and so forth.”

Abby R.

Principal

Cons

“This resulted in significant lost time and required us to restart our search process. If you are a Canadian private school or college that requires tax receipting, I would not recommend investing time in this platform.”

Natasha T.

Member of the Board

“We have had a few instances where we have turned on a feature and it not work, only to have Classter report that they have had to do some backend fixing to get it to work.”

Gina W.

Head of Operations

“I liked the horizontal scroll part less, when in a window you have to see all the left and right columns, you have to go all the way down to be able to scroll left and right”

Dan G.

Manager IT Logistics
