Chalk (Planboard) is a fantastic resource for teachers. Digital planner is amazing, and even links to curriculum expectations.

I was introduced to Chalk a few months ago, and it has really been great using it, the way it's presented makes it easy to understand the data about classes, and lessons in particular.

The ability to do things like place videos and links in lesson plans is wonderful. Also, being able to share lesson plans with teams is so beneficial.

Setting up classes was a bit tricky. Not all features work on IOS devices.

There are many things you can use this platform for, including grading, planning, and attendance. I mainly use it for the gradebook and it is very easy and helpful.

An easy to use app, allows me to plan my classes, the interface is very friendly and entertaining.

It is very confusing to use and difficult to see everything the is needed. I find it difficult to go back when looking at specific grades and specific classes while using the app.

Chalk has been really great for me in a teacher stand point.

Anything that helps me to see what I need to do in an appealing visual way is worthwhile in my book. I like to see things quickly and clearly.

This software is difficult to get started because the initial set-up is time consuming, therefore there is be patient.

I use this platform for my gradebook, after struggling to keep up with paper gradebooks for a semester.

I like how easy it is to set up profiles. It is also very easy to use VPP with Apple School Manager to push out apps to our devices.

Disowning iPads and removing Jamf is a pain. Multiple steps involved and we were having to do extra steps as well.

Jamf School (formerly ZuluDesk) has been a great MDM solution for our school district's needs.

Very easy to deploy to managed devices, very easy to manage/troubleshoot devices.

I love love the inventory and being able to lock down a stolen device.

The biggest part of Jamf School that I like is the ease of use.

All of my interactions with Jamf school have been extremely positive. Always very helpful with minimal wait time for support.

Its very difficult to learn, not much contact from anyone from Jamf unfortunately.

Creating the scope to issue apps to groups was more difficult than expected.

Jamf School MDM is a great tool for the price.

I love that we can package our apps and push them out. I also love the one time fee for the lifetime of the device instead of paying a per year fee.

I like everything about the Jamf suite of products.

I really enjoy the using Jamf School to manage our school devices. It cost for perpetual licensing makes it a very affordable option for schools.

The UI is very easy on the eyes, and the options available for device management make the day-to-day task of solving issues with devices much easier.

Overall, it has streamlined our iPad management, enough to where I have confidence our technicians can put their hands on the platform and solve issues without needing much further escalation.
