User Testimonials
	Edsby	ScholarLMS
Likelihood to Recommend	I use only Edsby - I have no use for a google classroom as well as an Edsby page. I try to convince and how teachers how easy it is to use only one system Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Pros	Intuitive - Parents find it simple to use. Email - because Esdby links to our SIS producing class lists and broadcast emails are a snap. Celia Stone Marketing & Admissions Manager Read full review	No answers on this topic
Cons	Edsby could make the sorting and collecting of information such as attendance easier. Enhancements to the messaging system are needed - sorting into folders, searching, etc. David Lee Vice Principal Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	The user interface is widely modelled on a web 2.0 design (e.g. Facebook). This is not a criticism per se, as it makes moving around the site very easy and familiar. The mobile site is also very well designed, it makes good use of space and is also easy to navigate. Matthew David IT Director Read full review	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	EDSBY was piloted at the school last semester, and I found it made my job easier, which is a boon since time is fleeting and I could get more done with less effort with Edsby. After the pilot the entire school district was signed up to use Edsby. I like it very much. I did use a blog on First Class which was extremely difficult to learn, and a blog on WordPress which was easier to learn how to use but not interactive like Edsby is. To my mind, Edsby is far superior to the former. SM Susan McGuire Secondary English Teacher Read full review	No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	For the most part, teachers, parents and students love the system. It provides easy access to the information that they need when they need it. David Lee Vice Principal Read full review	No answers on this topic
