Ratings and Reviews
Very efficiently designed
Before reading any more reviews, download it and just TRY it. I never write reviews, but after playing with this app for a week and studying it's features, I am in love. It is so user-friendly and provides graphs and visual reports to help you track attendance patterns. I use it for my job to take record of who shows up and it is so easy to set up and then use. The free version only offers 3 "courses" (groups), but with just those 3, all the features are pretty much unlocked. I have 5 groups so I bought the attendance package. Very useful and I am very proud of my investment.
A few more things would improve it.
I want to rate this higher. There’s a lot that’s awesome about it. However, why does it not give the ability to put out transcripts? That and the syncing issues others have mentioned caused me to remove two stars. I also purchased the student grade tracker this developer put out to use its transcript making ability. But that only allows me to do one student’s work at once. Then I guess I’ll have to delete and lose all the data to work on the next student. Not cool. I wish these two apps were combined — so I could make individual transcripts for each student. I’m a homeschool mom, and this would be invaluable to me for my record keeping. Nearly $14 for both together, and they don’t combine data.
Update: I think this will be more helpful with the transcripts than I first recognized. I do wish, though that it was explicitly labeled as such, and that it could be printed directly from the app. I’ve added another star.
Good App, More Features Needed
Let me start by saying that I like this app and use it every day to do my job. There are many of great features that are incredibly helpful. That being said, there should be more features for the price that faculty pay for the full app. The app does not support adding assignment as extra credit or dropping an assignment from the grade book for individual students (not the whole class). The notes that are written for students on assignments or exams do not show up when I run reports unless the assignment has a grade. This is problematic for me at the end of the semester when I allow students to drop the final - I cannot input a 0 and exclude the 0, and and my notes about the student opting out of the exam and accepting their grade do not show up unless I input a 0 and mess up their grade calculations. This would easily be a 5 star review if those issues could be fixed!
