Pros
The Schoolbox community is excellent. The company has established a culture and framework that is very effective in supporting learning through collaboration.
Overall, Schoolbox is a fantastic platform that has an active development team that works to improve the software and respond to the needs of schools.
It's a very good Learning Management System but also is very good at helping to run a school. The Unit pages and Class pages are particularly helpful for sharing resources.
Cons
The fact that we have to do manual updates is time-consuming and a bit frustrating for the ICT team. Note though that the issue is more with our SIS than a fault of Schoolbox.
Back end can be difficult and integration is not as it was explained.
The Course management is difficult for an average user to understand so really requires top-down control.
