Just what we were looking for.
[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and his development team were instrumental in our on boarding of this software. They walked us through every step and followed up to make sure we were pleased with the service.
PROSThis software is incredibly easy to customize and is extremely user friendly. The staff at SchoolCues is professional and available to assist in any way needed.
CONSI have to send text messages from my computer instead of phone because sometimes the word sequencing gets jumbled from the phone.
Reason for choosing SchoolCues
FACTS was more expensive and had poor customer service.
Reasons for switching to SchoolCues
FileMakerPro is hardware and thus it could not be shared between staff members. In addition it was very user unfriendly.

Best value for small schools
SchoolCues has been a big part of our SOLUTION for our school. We could not afford using one of the big SIS in the market because those are too expensive, too difficult to manage, too cumbersome to deploy. SchoolCues is just fine for our small, growing school. It allowed us to go to market really fast and requires minimal management from our side. Did I mentioned also that the training and support they offer is amazing!! We feel that we have a real partner with SchoolCues team and ours.
PROSThese are the pros of SchoolCues: 1) Extremely easy to deploy. Adding users and families is simple if you follow the instructions provided. 2) Easy to manage payments. Again, using the instructions provided is essential to be successful. 3) Great training available. Take advantage of the training online and live training sessions. You get trained by people that really know the software. 4) Super-responsive customer support. If you see a problem, report it, and the team will usually fix the problem really fast. 5) The system is very comprehensive to do almost everything you need to get done. Even though the system is purposefully built not to be very "customizable", it pretty much does everything you need or can imagine. 6) Best value for the money!!
CONSThese are the cons of SchoolCues: 1) User interface is developed by the software engineering team. The good thing about this is that once you understand how the software is designed, then it makes sense. The bad thing is that you need to think like a software engineer to make sense of it. 2) In many places, lists do not sort correctly. These are a few of the annoying minor bugs that the team is correcting. So, you need to be careful when looking at lists of things, because they are usually not sorted in a sensical way. 3) It is not "customizable" by design. This is a good thing because it helps keep the cost and price down, and you learn to us it quickly without having to make a ton of decisions for everything. The bad part of this is that if you need to do something different from what the software does, you are out of luck.
Reason for choosing SchoolCues
Cost, ease of deployment, right size for our needs.

A smooth transition!
Definitely a more efficient and convenient system for your school. Our experience with the SchoolCues platform has been great so far since we transitioned to a digital one last year.
PROSAs a Program Administrator & Family Liaison, I definitely recommend the SchoolCues platform to any small school or school interested in transitioning to a digital platform. The transition to a digital platform has been an easy one, this is due to the many different module trainings offered by Schoolcues. Everything is organized in the same digital space, which makes less paperwork for the office space. You can replace many forms and create ones from here and share with your families in one place. You can send communication to one person or the whole class, you can even set up parent teacher conferences, grades, and even collect payments.
CONSThere are some specific forms that can't be change/edited for now. For example, the accident reports, they come in a specific format that might be different from the one your school is currently using.
