Class Tag- Great for communicating

PROS

I really liked the communication piece and how easy it was to set up. I also like the ability to earn points and use points for items I needed for my classroom.

CONS

After a while I was needed more and more points to get gift cards or supplies from their “store” it became unrealistic.

Reasons for switching to ClassTag

I switched for the time being back to Class Dojo because I liked the student interaction and management piece.

A bit much

Class tag seemed really good at first. I switched from ClassDojo thinking it would be a better experience and be more professional and easier. It ended up being more confusing and irritating to use. I would definitely recommend not using it for elementary school and I said using something like ClassDojo or remind.

PROS

At first, I love the way that this software looked. It wasn’t overwhelming and seemed professional looking.

CONS

My least favorite thing about this software was how there were ads in the class story area. There seem to be too much going on, and it wasn’t simple to use.

Reasons for switching to ClassTag

I wanted to try something different. I ended up switching back to ClassDojo.

You get what you pay for...in this case, very little

From day 1 I've had problems communicating with ClassTag. [sensitive content hidden], my support contact, was condescending and dismissive. The response time was less than impressive. The guy they brought on, [sensitive content hidden], to help with sync process spent more time telling me how much he knew than actually doing anything. Over a year in and nothing has changed.

PROS

Very little to like about Classtag other than the price.

CONS

Support is non-existent, sync process STILL not working after 2 years. Import process spotty. The only school that could use classtag is one with 100 or less students that can be managed manually and is more concerned with cuteness than performance.

Reason for choosing ClassTag

the biggest contributor to the choice was price and downloadable reports. Bad choice.

Reasons for switching to ClassTag

We needed a 2 way messaging system

An Awesome Tool for Teachers

PROS

Class Tag is the perfect tool to keep in contact with student's families! I love that I can send a notice to everyone, select people, or just to one family. I also like the ability to have a wishlist for items for the classroom and the option to earn things with points for just using the app!

CONS

Sometimes it can be difficult with the limitations on the length of annoucements.

Too Many Ads!!!

Overall, I did not like ClassTag. It does give awards and prizes (if they are not already sold out) which is nice, but the amount of ads that always pop up really left a sour taste in my mouth!!

PROS

I liked ClassTag because it gave me a way to communicate with parents as well as share pictures, files, and worksheets/study guides.

CONS

It takes some time to maneuver around this app. The part that I disliked the most were the constant ads that popped up ALL THE TIME!! Teachers do not have time for that!

Reasons for switching to ClassTag

Easier to use and NO ADS!!

Easy for communication!

PROS

I love how easy this program is for teachers and parents to use. It allows space to post for parents and have communication via messages or through a wall where all can see. It is very user friendly.

CONS

I wish that the messages would be able to be longer. There is a word limit and I wish the word limit was longer.

ClassTag makes communicating a breeze.

I've used it in the school setting only. It is very easy to use.

PROS

I like that you are able to keep all your messages from teachers or parents in one location so you can reference any conversations you have.

CONS

It was a little tricky to navigate at first, but once I got used to it, it is very user friendly.
