Great communication software
We have used Remind for communication and from bad weather to COVID it has been a lifesaver and time saver in allowing for quick communication.
PROSRemind supports both text and email reminders and announcement making it easy to maintain communication about various events and changes in schedule.
CONSIt would be nice if we could integrate with our social media accounts to reach those who don't check their emails and texts.

Remind User
Communicating with people on a professional level is very easy with Remind. It's not as informal as a text, but an easy way to communicate with a lot of people at one time. I also like Remind for my kids - as it is a good way for them to communicate with teachers. I had to set them up under me, so I am always able to see their communication quickly and easily.
PROSEase of use. Easy to set up groups, easy to send texts and information. My second favorite thing about the app is that you can download and print conversations very easily.
CONSI've not had any problems with the software and I have been using it for years.
Reasons for switching to Remind
My kids' school made the switch.

Must-have for teachers and students
Remind is a must-have for every teacher. Teachers can easily communicate without giving out personal numbers. Remind listens to development suggestions from users and implements them.
PROSRemind makes it easy to schedules messages, send reminders, and communicate with students and parents. I like that you can send reminders to an entire group or individual messages.
CONSSome students and parents may need assistance setting up the Remind system, but Remind provides detailed instructions.

A solid app
Overall, Remind got the job done, it doesn't provide the same connectivity with the student that is available with other apps like Class Dojo, but it's a reliable app for getting school communications.
PROSI like the communication it provides between teachers and parents. I didn't have any trouble communicating with my child's preschool teacher and group communications were good as well.
CONSIt wasn't as user friendly as some of the other classroom apps. I achieves its main function but some other apps have more "fun ways of communicating"

Remind Review as Band Teacher
Able to enroll parents/guardians/students into specific groups. Then able to message all or specific groups. Also able to attach some documents in messages.
CONSThere is a character limit, which can be a pain at times. Learned to just type up a document, convert to a PDF, then share the file to get around the character limit. Also find issue adding another teacher to groups so they can also message groups.

A helpful app for staying in touch.
Remind provides an easy solution for quick messages and ongoing discussion amongst our church's leaders.
PROSRemind is excellent for its ease of use, rapid deployment, stable updates, and cost.
CONSIt is frustrating when non-organization people join our message group. There's probably a setting we've simply not checked somewhere, but thus far we've not found it.

A helpful tool for teachers
Remind has been very helpful to me as a teacher during my entire career. Students love it, parents love it, and everyone seems happy with all of the things that it offers.
PROSAs a teacher, communicating with parents and reminding students of information is critical. Remind allows this communication to be secure without exchanging phone numbers. I love how I can schedule messages in advance, and even send a picture, or a video if needed. I like how parents can sign up as a parent so when you send a messages either you can pick parents or students, and I also like how there is an individual messaging option for a student to reach out to their teacher individually. I also like how there are “office hours “you can set so it will tell the student that it is outside of your office hours if they try to contact you at an appropriate time.
CONSI wish that the word maximum was larger. Right now it is very low, and I have found myself either making a video, or typing out my comment in a note or a message and screenshotting it and sending that instead. I also wish there was a way for group messages to show who has read the message. The individual messaging section does have this, but it would be very helpful if it was in the group section as well.

Remind - as a teacher I can't live with out it
Remind has been a great experience. It has made communication with student so easy and helpful. It has also made sending and receiving documents and videos an ease.
PROSRemind has been the best product to appear for teachers. It allows me to communicate with my students at any time with out giving them my personal information. I can send out reminders about test and quizzes, or communicate with individual students who need to come make up work. I also use Remind to send out instructional videos when doing a flipped classroom or when we are virtual. I can send out any document in a pdf format to instruct, review or for general information. It makes communication with students easier that using email. I can set it up to get instant notifications to my phone or computer.
CONSMy only complaint with this software is that once a phone number is set up, it is very hard to change the information attached to that number.

Best way to communicate with teachers
I absolutely love this app. the school district uses this app to keep in contact with parents and students outside of school hours just in case theres a homework question or a concern about the student. Definately a faster way of communicating instead of waiting for a teacher meeting.
CONSThe only thing i dont like is some teachers you cant find them thru the search, you have to wait for them to generate a link or send you an invite before you can start communicating with them

Has its pros and cons but works well for communication.
I like that you can have different integrations such as Google Classroom and Drive. Makes it easier when I went to include attachments of documents.
CONSI don't see too much wrong. The biggest issue is the 140 Character limit. Makes it extremely difficult to send something especially if it's a long message.

Great way to communicate with parents to remind or chat

REMIND me to do my assignments.
An assignment is due today?? Without the Remind app, I would not have known and would have never completed it. This app saved my life throughout high school!
PROSWhat I like the most about this software is how easy it is for teachers to communicate with students. With one phrase to the whole class, students are more likely to finish their assignments. After all, that is the point of the application. It is great!
CONSWhat I like the least about the software is the organization. I believe the classes/courses should be easier to join. Sometimes, it gets a little bit frustrating to find the class that I want to text.

Easy Communication Tool
I have been thrilled with Remind. It makes it easy for families to communicate with the teacher and vice versa. I would recommend this app to all teachers and coaches.
PROSRemind makes communicating with families simple and easy. I've used this for both my classroom and teams, and I have been happy with both situations. I love that you can send mass messages as well as individual. It also allows you to attach photos, files, voice clips, and more. There is a website and an app so the user can easily choose which format works for them. It is great that parents can choose whether to receive texts or emails.
CONSSometimes long messages need to be split or shortened when sending an announcement. However, this is not the case for individual messages.

Great for group Reminders!
Overall Ive had a positive experience with Remind and it works well for our purposes. I do think three could be improvements.
PROSRemind is great for setting up a group reminder system while maintaining the privacy of each individual. It allows you to easily input and send out b the message to the entire group quickly and effectively.
CONSOne of the drawbacks about Remind is you are very limited on the number of characters you can send. This makes it difficult to ensure all info is included in one message rather than multiple.
