Stellar Company
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. These three people have shown they genuinely care about their customers and strongly believe in this company. They all listened to my concerns and desires, and all showed me they would give 110% to ensure my needs are met. They all displayed true professionalism with a personal touch. I truly feel like I am now part of their family.
Pros
The product is user friendly and the training I received to use the product was top notch. The product did not integrate with an app I need to use but the staff was willing to do what it took to get that integration in place. You have the opportunity to work with a programmer to put things in place specifically for your school --basically allowing you to customize your experience as much as possible.
Cons
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.
Reasons for Choosing PraxiSchool
Genesis was 10 times out of my budget. PraxiSchool provided all the things I needed with a responsible price tag.
Reasons for Switching to PraxiSchool
I switched because after seeing the sales presentation for Praxi, I felt it would be a better fit for me because they were very organized and provided me with a step by step email of what to expect next...not a lot of video links that left me confused and unsure of what to do next or what to expect.

Fantastic program for small non-public schools with limited resources
I have now used 3 different school database systems. 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.
Pros
The ease of set-up, high quality training and detailed resources for help. It also fits in our budget.
Cons
Occasionally, I might have to refresh the page for an update.
Reasons for Choosing PraxiSchool
Price, Promise of Customer Service help, and the wide range of uses.

Great concept, limited access
None really, I only use it because my school requires it.
Pros
Easy to take attendance and journal student progress. I can see how this website would be very convenient if I was an administrator.
Cons
Somewhat confusing to use, not an intuitive program. Wish there was an ios app for this, as I mostly use my iPad in the classroom, very frustrated that I cannot use my iPad with this website, even if I have Firefox on my device. Very annoying that I have to use Firefox with this website, as I don't need it for anything else. I have found the lesson planning section clumsy at best, there are simpler more user friendly sites that I use for lesson planning. The site freezes if I leave the web page open, forcing me to log in and out every time that I need to use it. As a teacher with limited time for admin during school hours this is very frustrating.

PraxiSchool
The use of PraxiSchool is opening up so many possibilities. The parents are thrilled that they will be able to pay on-line, select lunch, see grades. The teachers are thrilled to be able to put in attendance on their own, and that the lunches will not be punched on cards and the fact taht the parents can pay on-line frees up any mistakes I make!
Pros
I like all of the features of the software. Having used nothing but Excel spreadsheets to try to keep track of payments, monies owed, etc., this is a lifesaver!
Cons
I guess I haven't used it enough to have a dislike of anything!
Reasons for Choosing PraxiSchool
The price for the most part and some of the features.

Easy to learn. Does WAY more than I had hoped. The versatility and support is unparalleled.
We combined nine databases into one. Ease of use and versatile. Support is fantastic and so is the price! Both parents and the school loves having one database to which everyone has access.
Pros
We had nine separate databases operating at my school and we combined them into Praxi. Not only does Praxi handle everything for admin and the classroom, but it handles library, donors, lunch, communications, after school and finance. My parents are happy that they have one place to go to pay bills, see grades, demerits, calendar, announcements, etc. Admin loves it because we all have access to the same information and if the littlest piece of info changes (e.g. an email), it updates in the system and we all have access. The support that Praxi gives is unparalleled. Any software adoption has challenges as change is never easy, but Praxi made it as easy as it could be. Praxi was available for any training we needed - even if we needed a refresher. The online support is available to help and they make sure your question is answered while looking at your screen so you are using your data. At one point I had to wonder if we were the only school using Praxi because their response is so timely. (Of course, they have hundreds? Thousands? of schools.) They helped us every step of the way and they are still there for any questions big or small. The versatility of the reporting is also beyond anything I have seen and I have had experience with many databases. We can generate a report using any piece of data in Praxi and output it in a PDF, Excel sheet or email it. And you can't beat the price. Lots of value with an affordable price.
Cons
Praxi does not currently have the ability for us to put hyperlinks in the Announcements page, but I'm told they have that on the "to do" list.
