Great Product and Support Team!

For our foundling school, DreamClass has been a God-send. It has all the features we need, is much more user-friendly than competitors, and the price point allows us to have features that we wouldn't have been able to afford with our previous company. For reference, we paid five times as much with another company, and that was just the first installment with them, and for only online registration (and their system was not at all intuitive to use). With DreamClass, we get online registration, classroom management, grade book, parent communication, invoicing, online payment processing, and more.

PROS

Classroom management, grade book, online registration/enrollment, invoicing and online payments.

CONS

Not as feature-rich as I would like, but the support team is incredibly helpful and responsive. I brought up one item I'd like to see added, and a few weeks later got an email that it is now implemented. Some of the workflows are not as simple as they could be, but overall, these are minor issues.

Reasons for switching to DreamClass

Price and ease of use.

Vendor Response

Thank you for taking 5 star review :) We are on a mission to democratize the School Management Software so every school can optimize their operations from enrollment to graduation. Thank you again for your invaluable feedback The DreamClass Team

Great option for small schools!

PROS

One stop shop for gradebook, parent communication, school calendar, annoucements, and invoicing. I love the customer service and the easy to use platform and it can be customized for your individual school. When issues have come up, the support team will get on a call with you and show you how to navigate or fix any issue you are having.

CONS

I wish they would have up-to-date tutorial videos for the initial set up. Some of the videos that I watched on the initial setup and tried to follow were not able to be implemented and my experience was different than I thought it would be. I think having a step-by-step system that new users can follow would be great.

Reason for choosing DreamClass

The appearance was modern and the tutorial was easy to use and there were videos using the product. The customer service was very helpful.

Reasons for switching to DreamClass

We wanted to make a switch to a cloud based system and have the ability to input outside of a server. We wanted families to have mobile access.

Vendor Response

Thank you Melissa! We have now launched a complementary onboarding service where new customers can follow a customized and tailored plan based on their needs. We are so grateful to work with you and your school. Have a beautiful day DreamClass Team

Feature-Packed at a Great Price.

Amazing so far! The product is easy to navigate, and the support has been responsive.

PROS

DreamClass is very feature-packed student information management system at an amazing price. It combined a lot of functionality that was previously distributed across different spreadsheets and apps. It allows us to unify everything from application, to classroom management, to grading, and communication. Also, the customer service has been top-notch and extremely responsive.

CONS

Some features are limited, or not implemented in the way that would work best for our type of program, but customer service has been extremely helpful in doing things on the back end for us, and even taking our suggestions to the development team as feature requests.

Reason for choosing DreamClass

Provided most of the features we required at an amazing price; and a lot more options for customization as needed.

Affordable, accessible & wonderful customer service!

Working with DreamClass has been amazing; their customer service (shout out to Lids!) is better than any other product I've worked with, and it was definitely one of the main reasons we went with DreamClass over other products. Most issues we have come up with have been immediately brainstormed and troubleshooted by the DreamClass support team, and they have made so many custom fixes for us. Everything we have asked for they have worked on and provided. They are constantly updating the platform and adding more features so it gets better and more expansive each day!

PROS

We are a small nonprofit afterschool program with about 200 students, some in-person and some online.School periods, courses, and classes are all easy to create, enroll students in, and manage. Attendance is easy for our teachers to complete and on the admin side, it is easy to get reports on daily absences and student attendance summaries.Student profiles allow for UNLIMITED custom fields (other products charge per custom field), which was useful for us as we ask a lot information of our youth (demographic, short answer, health information, learning accommodations etc) and that information is helpful for us to have visible on the student profile. Billing is connected to Stripe and is easy to set up. Invoices can be created and sent manually or automatically on a variety of schedules. Payment schedules can easily be set up for monthly, one-off, or periodic fees, and there is no limit to the number of fees/payment plans created. It is easy to pull reports of unpaid, overdue, or uninvoiced payments. Transcripts are easy to create and download from completed courses. Student information is kept in the system (creating an automatic alumni database) and there is no maximum number of student profiles or accounts. Product is intuitive and even our less-tech-savvy staff have learned how to use it quickly. I would write more but I am running out of characters!

CONS

DreamClass launched an Admissions tool this summer. It is helpful to have a form that links directly to class enrollment, but there aren't quite enough form building options for our needs. We are still using Formstack for our main registration form then bulk uploading student data through a CSV file.Similarly, there is a gradebook on DreamClass, but there aren't great ways to upload files, create assignments or quizzes, or collect homework assignments through the platform. We are still using Canvas as our Learning Management System, then uploading the final grades to DreamClass to create transcripts. I would love to see DreamClass make their LMS portion more robust or allow for integration with Canvas.

Reason for choosing DreamClass

DreamClass is more affordable, has better customer service, and is structurally more inclusive than these other products.Example: DreamClass allows for unlimited custom fields and does not require certain fields such as race or sex. In contrast, one alternative product only allowed for a dropdown of ~5 racial categories, based on the U.S. census groups. If we wanted to add our own custom race/ethnicity category to better reflect the reality of our students, we would have to pay something like $100 per field. Gender was defined as Male, Female, or Prefer Not to Say, not allowing for non-binary or other groups to self-identify. DreamClass fields are open and can better reflect the needs of each organization and their student population.Further, the DC team helped us to make some custom fields only visible to the student and administration. For example, some of our youth use different pronouns in our program than they use with their families. DC helped us to have 2 fields - one pronoun field that was visible just to students/admin, and one that was also visible to families.DC customer service is far more respectful and responsive than my interactions with these other platforms. There is no limit to how many trainings or conversations you have with the support team (some alternative solutions charge per hour). Lids is always willing to jump on a call or answer emails with any questions and meet with any team members!

Vendor Response

What a review! Thank you so much for taking the time to give us such a detailed overview of your experience with us! Small non-for-profit organizations are the heart of DreamClass. In 2023 we will invest in making our Assignment & Homework management more robust and offering advanced admission settings. We will make sure to keep you and your team updated.

Extremely satisfied.

We are a small fashion school, we have less than 100 students. The courses become popular during the last years, and we had trouble to manage attendance, class records, admissions, calendar, etc. While looking for a school CRM we found DreamClass, it is suitable for us because, being a small company, we can not afford to customize a big CRM. Other companies offer much more detailed-specific software, but is not suitable if you have only few students. After some interviews with different companies, I did the trial with Dreamclass, and has no doubts about it. We found Dreamclass easy to set, easy to use, and (very important) user-friendly. The platform was not available in Italian, and they did all the translations in less than a month. Highly recommend it!

PROS

Other CRM have grey - complex interface that is not suitable for young students, DC is intuitive and easy to set. The customer service is excellent, if I have a problem or if I don't find something they fix immediately or send me a video tutorial. Students and teachers have access to their own area, which is easy to use and that is an important feature. I am overall happy with the platform, I will probably add the online payment anytime soon.

CONS

If I want to be very, very demanding, it could have some integration regarding expenses and some economic aspects. Right now we use another software, and it would be comfortable to have an all-in-one. But this is not, by far, a reason to change DreamClass. At the end, it is a school management software and does it job VERY well.

Reason for choosing DreamClass

It is the only product suitable for a small school and nice, the other companies offered me software that needed to be settled and customized. The only company that had a "ready to use" option had a bad interface, not intuitive at all.

Vendor Response

Hello Lucia Thank you for your review! It is our pleasure to hear your valuable feedback. We are happy you are enjoying the DreamClass experience. We will seriously consider the expense management and come back to you with updates. The DreamClass team

Great school management software with responsive support

By implementing Dreamclass we have streamlined our processes at the school, reduced data entry and increased transparency of account management to reduce errors. Overall a great boost to business productivity.

PROS

Onboarding was easy enough with the great support from Dreamclass. We were able to shape the software to fit our needs and the tech team in Dreamclass even accommodated small requests for our business and locale.

CONS

Minor things did not suit our school, such as monthly billing cycles for invoices. The invoice system is a little rudimentary and we would love to connect the system via API to a more robust accounting software, but this does not outweigh the benefits we have received from implementing an online invoicing system to begin with.

Reason for choosing DreamClass

It had the right features that suited our school's needs, at a great price point

Vendor Response

Ira thank you very much for your feedback! We are extremely grateful you appreciate our efforts.Our team is designing an easier invoicing mechanism and it will be released in 2023 as well as more advanced API options.We will continue to work hard to meet our Customer's Requirements.Thank you very much, The DreamClass team

PROS

The customer service is outstanding! I have never worked with a company that will not only email you in a timely manner, but they will hop on a zoom call and personally work through any issues that may arise. Hands down - great experience so far with DreamClass.

CONS

Great Platform for Schools and Events

Overall DreamClass is a great platform. The support is top-notch and extremely responsive, the cost is reasonable for the platform you are getting, and it does much of what existing SMS platforms offer. If you are at a larger institution with hundreds of students, there might be more manual admin work you have to do since some of those automated / quick-use features are absent, but once it's running it'll take care of you.

PROS

DreamClass offers a lot of bang for your buck - classroom or event registration, detailed user data, customizable admissions forms, a well-respected and secure payment option (Stripe integration), and great classroom management and attendance-taking ability. Teacher usability is very important for us, and the fact that our staff were able to utilize said features without much training necessary was super helpful. Parent portal information is also expertly laid out and easy on the eyes. Additionally, the tagging feature is extremely helpful for teachers and admins to organize their classes, students, parents and school resources.

CONS

Some automation features are missing, such as autopayment for invoices, quick-unenroll options for students, the ability to combine unenrolling a student with erasing their invoices and fees (all these must be done separately), the ability to mass-accept applications, and the ability to refund invoices from within DreamClass (must be done outside in Stripe), robust Excel reporting tools, or the ability to archive old periods / classes. A lot of these features, however, are in development so this review might be outdated by the time you are reading it!

Reasons for switching to DreamClass

Our old platform was buggy, lacking in teacher-use functionality (the features were there but did not work well), and had a convoluted UI.

Simple, Streamlined, Sleek . . . And Affordable!

Amazing! The folks at DreamClass have been great to work with. They are personal, knowledgeable and helpful. I can't speak to the needs of a large organization, but for a small organization, DreamClass is the perfect solution!

PROS

1. Affordable monthly subscription, even for small organizations. No huge set-up costs. 2. Simple, intuitive, and immediate set-up. Try it yourself with a simple free trial. Then seamlessly convert to a paid subscription. No sunk set-up costs. No risk! 3. Beautiful and intuitive user-interface. 4. Excellent and responsive customer service. 5. New features rolling out regularly.

CONS

Reason for choosing DreamClass

Reasons for switching to DreamClass

My expirience of use DreamClass

DreamClass offers a user-friendly interface that makes it easy for teachers, students, and parents to navigate and use the platform. The intuitive design and clear instructions contribute to a smooth and seamless user experience.DreamClass focuses on personalized learning, allowing me to tailor my lessons and activities to meet the individual needs and learning styles of students. The platform provides flexibility to create custom lesson plans, assessments, and interactive activities that engage students and promote active learning.Users can engage in discussions, participate in group projects, share resources, and exchange messages through the platform. This fosters a sense of community and encourages active engagement in the learning process.But I also have expressed a desire for more integrations with other educational tools and platforms

PROS

1. Interactive features: DreamClass includes a range of interactive features such as games, quizzes, polls, and discussions that engage students and make learning more fun. These features promote student participation and help teachers gauge student understanding and progress.2. Collaboration and communication: DreamClass allows teachers, students, and parents to communicate and collaborate easily through a variety of channels, including chat, video conferencing, and messaging. This enhances engagement and helps build strong relationships between students, teachers, and parents.3. Flexibility and accessibility: DreamClass provides flexibility in terms of when and where students can learn. The platform is available on multiple devices, including laptops, tablets, and smartphones, allowing students to learn from anywhere and at any time.4. Analytical tools: DreamClass provides teachers with analytics and insights to track student performance, attendance, and progress. These insights help teachers tailor their teaching approach to improve student learning outcomes.

CONS

Limited integrations: I have expressed a desire for more integrations with other educational tools and platforms. Seamless integration with existing systems, such as student information systems or learning management systems, is important for data synchronization and a streamlined workflow.

DreamClass Review (BESTuition)

Our overall experience with DreamClass is very positive, the way that we are able to track students and use our scheduling is far better and more efficient than the way we were doing this before.

PROS

The features that are most impactful are the scheduling, attendance monitoring, lesson reviews, and class management. Once you have received the one to one training to use and tailor it for your company the product has been fairly easy to use with little complication. Most of the integration was easy to do, hopefully the rest of our staff feels the same way.

CONS

There were a few changes that needed to be made in order for us to use the system to our advantage. For example, the way that we would classify classes and subjects is different to how it needs to be done on DreamClass as our company is smaller and differs to the average school. The only areas that appear difficult are the ones that we have not needed to use or have not yet used, such as the grading system for our students. As mentioned before the integration was fairly easy to do, however there were little challenges as the features designed for a school have to be used differently for our company as we focus more on one to one tuition.

Vendor Response

Joel, Thank you for your review! We are happy you are enjoying your experience with DreamClass and we will continue to build features that make the administration of your school easier! As we understand many schools like yours provide 1:1 tutoring we will be delivering a 1:1 scheduling set up very soon. Stay tuned :) About the gradebook set up, we provide a quick walk through in this Youtube video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6n8pPjP8Ag0 What's amazing and will save you valuable time, are gradebook templates!

Thank you for making my tasks easier!

All info in one place, where as before we had a clunky system of several different platforms.

I like that is makes my job a lot easier compared to all the data entry and emails I used to send most are automated now. Instead of using 2-3 different platforms to collect student registration, collect payment and make contact with parents, all 3 of these are done in one place.

CONS

I would love to have had a training video or manual to go over basic tasks and then also one that goes into detail about other features.

Easy to use and implement

Our experience has been great! The team is super helpful, [SENSITIVE CONTENT] our main contact person is just wonderful and very responsive. Adding in our students and their info has been super easy. Any issue we've ran into has been addressed. So far we could not be happier!

PROS

The features that are available fit what we were looking for. Previously we had spent 2 years trying to get Classter setup for our needs, we ran into one problem after another and were never able to use it! We have only been setting up DreamClass for about 2 weeks and its ready to use. Customer service is wonderful, questions are answered quickly. They are constantly rolling out new features it seems and so far it has been a vastly different experience than what we went through with Classter.

CONS

There are some features missing due to it being a newer software, but just in the 2 weeks we've been using this they have already starting rolling out some of those features. Like email templates, etc.

Reasons for switching to DreamClass

Classter was impossible to use and setup. The design is terrible and they promise you a bunch of stuff they can't deliver. DreamClass is appealing in design, easy to use and setup and they don't make you any huge promises and then you find out none of those things will work. Everything is very straightforward with DreamClass.

Instructors can easily communicate with their students via email and vise-versa and keeps planning for upcoming classes organized. It is easy to use overall and the customer service from [SENSITIVE CONTENT] is amazing!

CONS

Additionally, it is not as user friendly on a mobile phone. However they are quick to respond and take all feedback into consideration.

I love DreamClass!

As a new university, we required a student information system to run efficiently. The first information system we contracted with was not a good fit for John Melvin University as it was designed for K-12. We used it for one semester while immediately searching for something else. During that search, we encountered DreamClass. DreamClass has offered several modifications, at every level, to ensure this system will work for our school. As a bonus, they also initially set up courses/programs. That is something we had to do ourselves in the original system. I would recommend DreamClass to any school looking for a student information system.

PROS

DreamClass is easy to use. They are quick to make modifications when needed.

CONS

There is nothing I dislike about DreamClass so far.

Reasons for switching to DreamClass

The other product could not be modified for a good fit to our Unviersity.

DreamClass is great!

Excellent immediate setup, easy to use, affordable, fantastic customer service, responsive to our requests

PROS

We are a small but growing private high school in our third year. Considering next year's graduating class, we realized that we needed to upgrade from storing everything haphazardly to having a streamlined electronic program that will comply with regulatory requirements and allow us to have everything organized in one place. The previous systems we used for school management were disorganized and inefficient. Due to our small size and limited funds, we knew we needed a simple and affordable option. DreamClass was the perfect solution and has so far been working very well in all areas.

CONS

We have certain aspects of our school structure that do not exactly align with DreamClass. This causes some kinks here and there in using the application for our unique community. However, nothing drastic so far that is preventing us from utilizing the system in the way we need it.

Reason for choosing DreamClass

We had considered multiple other programs, all of which were significantly more expensive than DreamClass. Furthermore, some of them needed an extensive onboarding program, which would not allow us to have report cards completed in time.

Hit The Easy Button With Dream Class Student Management System

My overall experience is rated a 10! I searched for a system for months that was easy and affordable, signed up and tried it for free, received the demo and became a paying customer! So glad I did and would recommend it!!!

PROS

Both my daughter and I love the easy maneuverability of Dream Class as a student management system and the simplicity of the program. I received excellent customer service from [SENSITIVE CONTENT] as she trained both my daughter and I on the system! I highly recommend Dream Class to any institution whether you are an online school or a traditional brick and mortar school.

CONS

I love the product and have not found anything that I didn't like.

DreamClass

The support team and account managers are extremely responsive and helpful. I have used many SIS and this one performs task well at a fraction of the cost

PROS

We use DreamClass for our SIS and I have found it to be user friendly, clean and when I run into a problem, the support team makes custom videos to help me figure out the issue

CONS

There is not yet an admissions application, which we would love to see in the future. There is a learning curve with the software, but overall it is great for smaller companies

Vendor Response

Kyle, thank for taking the time to share your feedback with our team. It is greatly appreciated. As we are committed to continuously improved DreamClass and make the best School Management System, we are delighted to inform you that you can now create admission application forms for your school.

Great and Inexpensive School Management site!

Overall, this is a wonderful school portal and has been a HUGE success for our school! I'm so happy with it and recommend it to others!!

PROS

DreamClass is so easy to use and was easy to learn! I love that it is extremely customizable to our school needs, and it is an easy platform for parents, teachers and admin to communicate with each other! The financial invoicing makes it so easy to have everything in one place, and with the Stripe portal, parents can easily access their invoices! I hope to have some sort of way to set up automatic payments for parents so it's even more easy for them to use! Lids has been a HUGE help and is so quick to respond with advice or videos on how to navigate any problems or questions that might arise.

CONS

I know that there is a lot of development going on, I hope to see in the future better report generators as far as gradebooks and information go. I don't particularly love that when you pull bulk reports, such as grading or transcripts, that it comes out in a spreadsheet that doesn't make very much sense to parents if they were to look at if first glance.

Vendor Response

Thank you Jamie for your kind feedback ! There are new reports available for parents via the parent portal in pdf and not in excel. We hope you find this useful.

Excellent educational application

More than 12 student information management systems have been tried, but Dreamclass was distinguished by its service, team, simplicity of operations and ease of use.

PROS

The most important characteristic of the Dreamclass application is the ambitious team that is keen to support its customers immediately and urgently

CONS

There are no negatives at present, but the presence of a mobile application may be an opportunity for improvement that contributes to the spread of Dreamclass more widely.

Vendor Response

Thank you Eyab! We are so happy to see our Customer Service stands out The mobile app, is such a good suggestion and it will be available very soon. Stay tuned and have a beautiful day

Shillington Review—Super easy and fantastic customer support

We came into DreamClass off the back of a very clunky, and old Student Information System. Having the ability to take control of what we wanted with DreamClass was fantastic. Also, the customer service is top-notch and integrate changes really quickly!

PROS

The ease of use. DreamClass's UI is fantastic. Registering students is simple, and the ability to have specific application forms with deposits integrated is a breath of fresh air!

CONS

Maybe too many options! DreamClass has a lot of options and maybe can be a bit daunting when beginning on boarding.

Vendor Response

Clay, Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a 5-star rating ! We are so grateful! We understand new beginnings can be difficult when learning a new software and this is why we have built a thorough implementation process. Every customer has a dedicated Onboarding plan with a Customer Success Manager to make the implementation a piece of cake. Thank you for your feedback DreamClass Team
