    This is an ideal program for any school or district looking for a way to monitor room and maintenance requests. The digital routing availability will help ease the burden of paper copies and make it quicker for everyone to use and submit their needs. Schools with a variety of staff members are best suited, especially since when submitting a request you can designate those that need to be involved and what specific needs you have from facility to technology.

    We use Faciliatron every day. If I need assistance,
    I can call my Rep. They do free training as well. It is very user friendly, even those of use who are not really tech savy, love the ease of making a reservation on Facilitron. Work Order system is straight forward.

    Cons
    Brightly Software
    • The filter and ability to sort through your request history is a little difficult to navigate and can be glitchy if you are not sorting in the correct way.
    • There should be a quicker and simpler way to verify whether a room is booked prior to scheduling.
    • A cleaner, more simplistic look and navigation would go a long way.

    This is the only program I have used for the facility, maintenance, technology, and room requests. However, there are programs that include similar features. Frontline Professional Growth is a platform that includes digital forms and routing similar to SchoolDude. But it is a vastly more in-depth program with features that go beyond what SchoolDude is often used for.
