Classter @ MCAST
Hosting and main setup is handled by the supplier, and the support is very responsive for the implementation used.
CONSIn some cases, the user interface needs some tweaking, as the software offers a little too much choice for the end user, which can cause the user to choose the wrong option in some cases. It would be ideal for the user interface to reduce the amount of choice to the user so that the user flows through the system are straightforward.
Vendor Response
Dear Gerard, thank you so much for your valuable feedback! We're glad you're happy with Classter and that it's been helpful for MCAST administrative staff and end-users. We strive to provide the best possible experience so you can be successful in your day-to-day IT challenges. Regarding the too many options for the end-user that you mention, this is something that our product team will take seriously under consideration for future rounds of development. In general, this is something that can be easily configured for different types of users and educational organizations, that have different needs than the ones you currently have.

Don’t overpromise, when you can’t deliver!
Financial Module works fine. Academic Module is decent.
CONSUser Experience is bad & Application almost useless. We had to do debugging numerous times, as things didn’t work properly.
Reasons for switching to Classter
Because they overpromised too many features & capabilities which either didn’t work or were non-existent (characteristic example of the mobile Application).
Vendor Response
Dear Demetrios, We apologize if your experience with Classter was not satisfactory, as mentioned in your review. Issues may arise when extensively customizing Classter for specific institution requirements, but they are always resolved at no cost to the customer. We take pride in working closely with our customers to offer relevant and useful functionality for all, as it is demonstrated from most of the reviews here. The Mobile App is a relatively new addition to our product offering and it is true that we observed some issues in specific types of devices, but our dev team resolved them in updated releases. To say that we over-promised and did not deliver is not only unfair but untrue, our Mobile App has been downloaded and used by almost 8,000 users. We are always available to discuss and find solutions to any issues you may have with Classter platform, feel free to contact our team as you have successfully done in the past.

The badest school management system out there
We have been using Classter for close to 5 years now. The best thing about Classter is the higher education management portion and the fact that it grows with us as we grow. The fee/student is also very convenient.

Versatile Student Software
I did the free version when we were looking for an SIS system for our vocational training school that is also a nonprofit organization with limited funds. This option was perfect for the needs we had at the time and allowed our educational nonprofit to organize our students with a cost efficient option during these COVID times since many SIS systems are way expensive.
PROSThere is a free option available for those who have basic needs, which is not available with any other student information systems I have found. The support is quick to answer questions and available when you need them with clear answers. If you go even further and pay for a subscription, it has a function for just about every need if you are willing to pay the increases.
CONSThe free version is very limited and shows a very basic interface that can sometimes be confusing or take a bit of time to get the hang of. I hope for a more user friendly interface with a paid/upgraded version, although with practice it is able to be used by everyone regardless of their tech skills.
Reason for choosing Classter
It had a free option that we can use while we get back on our feet and have our online classes grow enough to move to the paid option (which we intend to do). This was great for us to learn how the system works on a daily basis and see what options/functions work for us and what don't since it takes time and usage to learn these things from SIS's but most times you don't get this length of a free trial to familiarize your self with it and make sure it is a good decision for your school.

Once one got into the functioning of the different implemented modules it is a great help in the administration and sharing of different information.
PROSIt helps do digitalize many administrative tasks, that up till the implementation of Classter were done on paper. Like this we have a better overview of information needed.
CONSSometimes it is difficult to implement new modules as there a quite a lot of settings to do and consider.

Worth investing time to learn
I perservered with the software because it offered nearly all the functions I was seeking. I gave up on it once and looked at other products and although some were easier to work with, they lacked features. I gave it another go and decided to stick with it. My level of IT competence is modest. I designed computer based training programs and built a network for running simulation exercises for training emergency services personnel. I taught IT in secondary schools in the UK, 11-18yr groups. I think a better level of competence than what I have is required to effectively manage the implementation of this software in an organisation. Without that level of competency I think training from Classter is essential which greatly increases the cost. In summary, promising, but difficult to deploy.
PROSAbility to integrate with Microsoft 365 and Moodle. The range of functions.
CONSIt is necessary to devote a lot of time to learning the product. Customizing terminology is not easy to and the changes you make are not always global, which causes confusion. Too many steps to reveal lists especially users lists. I would prefer sorting commands. When buying any software that Is aimed at businesses that although in the same industry have different requirements broadly connected, the ability of the customer to customize is essential. I would liked to have seen a far better and clearer customization panel. I don’t like the customisation tools in Classter.
