Gradelink Student Information System vs. Veracross

Gradelink is easy to use and keeps students and parents informed of the student's progress in a class. It is an excellent tool to foster communication between the teacher and the parent. Gradelink is very user-friendly and offers a variety of tools to assist the teacher in grading assignments. The teacher may select between points or percentages as well as provide a narrative for the parent to see what a particular assignment encompassed.

Veracross is software that can be highly recommended to anyone in the education industry. Veracross offers a breadth of services varying from administration to student-parent communication. The unique abilities that Veracross offers such as email reminders, attendance management, billing, and payment processing, and attendance tracking have made my job as an administrative support manager so much easier and more productive here at Teachables.

• Ease of use. The interface is very user-friendly, and not intimidating to those who are not IT specialists.
• Data Management. We use Gradelink to keep all our student records current and available.

• mobile-friendly portal for staffulty, parents, and students
• built-in or easy-to-configure integration with other systems (for example, RankOne and Naviance)
• targeted messaging based on data within the system
• "where is student now?" is one-click away

• I wish I had a better system for tracking student specific notes (behavioral).
• I wish the admin platform and the teacher platform weren't so different, so I could learn more from teachers (who use Gradelink even more than I do).

• Normally it has everything I need for my work, today I was able to make a video call and chat from my cell phone and this adds more positive points to Veracross.

We will continue to use Veracross for the simple fact that we have one database across all of the departments in our school. Veracross continues to listen to customer feedback and improve and enhance the system.

There can be some added items such as the ability to add and differentiate assignments.

LOVE the Technical Response Team - the first line of help at Veracross. I can quickly submit a ticket and receive a response knowing that they have looked in our system and know what we are trying to do! Our account manager is also amazing! So nice to have a person within the company who knows our school and our needs!

Gradelink SIS has a lot more helpful and useful features for teachers, admin, and staff. First, it has lesson plans and state standards integration which is a great help for teachers. With this feature, teachers don't have to worry about standards being in place for each lesson plan.

Veracross has better built-in integrations with other platforms/systems. IT is much simpler and easy to use. It keeps records in a much simpler way and can be accessed through different modes of reporting. It is very easy to keep track of the progress in any training, project, or assignment with Veracross.

• Fosters Communication

• Not sure, but our school has been using it for years, so it must be worth it. Veracross is good about updating and adding features.
