The other thing I love about Praxi is the immediate customer service. I am able to connect with a customer service rep in moments online and they are always able to resolve any questions I have.

Excellent choice for programs that are seeking a strong cloud based software.

Very annoying that I have to use Firefox with this website, as I don't need it for anything else.

Somewhat confusing to use, not an intuitive program.

It is very easy to use, as well as the support that is given to have a better understanding of it. The support system is great as well, if help is needed there are various options.

The product is user friendly and the training I received to use the product was top notch.

These three people have shown they genuinely care about their customers and strongly believe in this company.

Support is fantastic and so is the price. Both parents and the school loves having one database to which everyone has access.

We are just beginning this new software and it is powerful but easy to use.

Professional, uses technology to support but also personal and friendly.

The new billing capabilities are wonderful and the service is just about around the clock.

The implementation of this software has been a very pleasant experience largely due to the excellent customer service from the sales team and their training team, David, Stacie and Jennifer.

There are so many different tabs to choose from, sometimes it is difficult to know where to look for something.

This one holds weight with the top of the line products used in my area, by overly funded public schools. One caveat, we are not using the finance side of the program.

There aren't any features I feel are missing because you can ask for specific things and have a discussing how to implement your requests.

The ease of set-up, high quality training and detailed resources for help. It also fits in our budget.

I truly feel like I am now part of their family.

Teachers find the program user friendly with great functions to keep students and parents aware of academic progress.

FBA has used several school management programs over the years and with the acquisition of Praxi, find the multitude of functions, ease of use and customer service  to be exceptional in comparison.

Implementation of software was very smooth. Training and support team are always available to help.

As of right now there is no way that I have learned to put our school logo, but I may not have been told how to do that yet.

The PraxiSchool software meets all of our needs and more. The software is robust and the technical support is EXCELLENT.

The customer service has been very helpful throughout our time setting it up.

It is difficult to run a fully detailed attendance report for conferences.

We love Praxi’s flexibility and layout. Obviously created by educators and accountants to cover all the bases for schools.

Like most that it is cloud-based and easy to edit changes. Also, video recording the training sessions makes it easy to review click by click.

Overall extremely happy with this application. I highly recommend that every parent who has a child in school use this app.

Gradebook can be difficult to use compared to other programs. We have just started using it and at the moment it is not completely syncing with our other programs.

I love how quick and easy it is to post for my students and their families. It is a great communication tool.

Very easy to use for students and teachers. I love how as a student I am able to see every single detail about my grades and what is submitted and what did not get submitted.

You have to set the fields and ranges and then waste time running a report to see if it works.

The technical support is the best I've seen in the industry. Everyone is very knowledgeable and is kind.

I have used this program  as a parent and as a teacher. As a teacher it is fabulous.

For example, in regards to attendance, it is hard for us teachers to adjust the attendance after they have been entered as absent in first period, but they show up later in third period.

The integration with other systems and the wealth of dashboard options allows for all things to be managed in one system.

Skyward crashes on occasion, which can be very frustrating as when it goes down, our entire system hits a roadblock. It doesn't happen frequently, but when it does, it's very much an inconvenience.

Skyward I am sure has many functions that I have not been trained to used. I feel good software should be user friendly and somewhat intuitive; Skyward is not.

I love that I can send mass emails to all parents. I am impressed by some of the reports that I can generate from the website.

They are always improving and keeping up with current trends. Skyward has absolutely OUTSTANDING customer service.

The best feature to me is that everything is in one place. Having multiple systems to manage makes data tracking much more difficult.

It is somewhat difficult to learn. There are many variables that can confuse teachers in creating gradebooks and in accessing information.

Skyward is a fantastic program and quite simply I cannot imagine doing my job without it.

I am so glad that my child is a senior this year and I will never have to deal with this substandard software package again.

One of my favorite things about Skyward was the ease that went into transferring grades if a student was moved from one class to another.

Everything was a waste of my time as a parent. All workflows are not intuitive.

This product is so easy to use once you get the hang of it. It's a great way to keep all of your students information in one place.

My overall experience with Skyward has been positive. It is a great tool to enter the students's grades.

I love that you can acess so much information and set it to view as you want to. I like that it is so easy to use.

I would love to see your software customer service staff have site visits, I think this would help for both skyward customers and skyward employees.

It was easy to use for kids and not too complicated for parents.

It has been beneficial to knowing what my paychecks will be so I can budget appropriately.

I hate it, I can't find the login portal, i think it's mythical.

It does not integrate with anything. It is extremely difficult to import grades from any other program or online curriculum/grading system.

Useful features to allow parents interact with their child's activities. Allows for integration with payment systems which is seamless and real-time.

Bummed that it costs so much because many people who do use it have been very pleased with it's performance and uses.
