8 reviewers had the following to say about STARS's features:
My management team started using STARS last year after a compliance review disclosed areas of opportunity for improvement.
Tracking leads, storing student info, allowing students a place to check progress even though the attendance portion is never correct.
Pros
The ability to store and search leads easily. Adding notes and documents to student profiles. Student ID badges. Student supportal.
Cons
Many of their functions are time consuming and ineffective (creating phases, adding and adjusting attendance, entering financial data, adding new users requires a helpdesk ticket every time as does resetting a password once locked out, etc.)

I believe I am always pushing the STARS team for new reports or functions in the system.
Pros
We have been using the system for almost two years now and have seen vast improvements in many areas of operation such as; attendance, financial aid implementation, grading, student communication, lead conversion, compliance, annual reporting and much more.
Cons
Sometimes it can be difficult to find a report or function in the system, however this could also be seen as a pro because STARS has so much to offer.

query function is very helpful to build "customized" reports. Customer service has also been great to assist in building queries to fit the schools needs.
I would like to see more reporting options available and queries easier to build.
