I Love SchoolBanks.com
SchoolBanks is an excellent tool to use to control financial obligations, it was created because we had the need for a program that would control financially the records of how much the students owe, and to replace the intense paperwork and manual filing, in the beginning stage I was very lucky to help as part of the data test team. I have been using the program ever since it was created and I recommended to other schools to use. Great improvements throughout the years. I love SchoolBanks.
PROSThe best part of this program is that is paperless, a great way to keep accountability of the students financial obligations, easy access for teachers to enter charges and is very manageable by all the users.
CONSAccessing and printing reports, it won't give me the option to print a selected group, I have to make the changes on an export excel file.

Teacher on School banks
Easy to track book assignment. I can now show students what they have assigned, when it was assigned and what they owe for the book.
CONSNot easy to scan the book numbers. Getting the book id and title is difficult. we have to do it my hand.
Vendor Response

THE MOST IMPORTANT SCHOOL SOFTWARE !!!
Student Obligations/ School Fees have been the most organized since we started using this software
PROSSchool Banks is a flexible and adaptable software for any school. This program is a MUST HAVE for any Activities Director, school Treasure, and School Secretary.
CONSCON- we should have got this earlier, this program made our life so much easier, we love the fact that they continue to refine and add features to make life great for their end-users. This software will save you time and money. The help desk has a very quick response time to question asked and is always available to help.

Thank you for your review and feedback. feel free to tell other Directors about us.

Schoolbanks
Overall I feel this software has simplified many tasks that took up a logbook if time. I would not like to go back to the things we’re done before acquiring schoolbanks.
PROSI feel that schoolbanks has taken a very complicated procede and simplifies it for the users. It has made me more efficient and free up time to work on other tasks.
CONSI feel like the login could definitely be better. For some reason I have to login with the admins telephone number to authenticate me as a user it would be easier to just login with a username and password.
Vendor Response
Thank you for the great review Alex. We feel your pain with the login. You will be getting an email soon that will make that smoother for you!

Easy to Use
I liked it and it was easy to use.
PROSI really liked that it was a schoolwide way to track obligations for students. It was easy to input obligations and the password management was efficient.
CONSI felt that it was difficult to look up students with specific obligations. So maybe a filter feature should be added.
Vendor Response
Thank you for your review and feedback. We would love to talk with you more about your difficulties looking up students. Our goal is to give you the tools you need to be successful!

Pro & Cons
Pros: The program is user friendly and allows the treasurer to keep daily track of students missing books and other school items. All financial obligations and/or dues for class or club fees will be written in detail, as well as an excellent tool to notified students on details of any fees due for particular classes and/or club, by requesting a printer friendly screen. Is allows the teachers to enter their own student obligations, allowing both the teacher and student to access a print friendly screen for accurate book keeping. The teacher's email address will be provided on the printer friendly screen in order for students to have direct contact with the teacher. By using the reports mode teachers can see detailed of fees required and/or paid, as they pertain to particular classes. Cons: The program is not able to be linked with the MDCPS registration system. This would inhibit the automatic enter of fees owed for classes in which students are registered (ie; science fee, art fee, etc.).
Vendor Response
Elizabeth, thank you for your response. We will work on linking our system to others to improve efficiency.
