OrbitNote vs. PolicyManager

I think OrbitNote is a great tool for all teachers to use to make paper assignments accessible to a variety of learners.

The part I like the most is our staff not having to log in to view policies. We have so many passwords to remember having this convenience is a big satisfier.

• OCR scanning.
• Text to speech.
• Annotation on worksheets.
• Integration with Google classroom.

• If I ever have any technical issues or questions the support team is great at getting back to me very quickly. I also like all the resources available to help as well.
• Policy reports, there are so many to choose from. These reports help me track several different things in the system. Compliance, attestations, past due, and so much more.
• Another plus for me is being able to add linkages to outside programs like TJC and Elsevier. Linking these to policies saves a lot of time.

• Would like it to have a specific iPad app.
• Circle- shape tool difficult to use.

• The program doesn't work well with Chrome, would like to see that fixed. We have several staff members that use Chrome.

Overall this program is great. I am continuously in the program and find it very simple to use. I do have some staff that struggle, only because they are not in the program as often as I am

I like how read&write integrates with OrbitNote making it where students do not have to learn multiple tools depending on what they are doing on the computer.

• The program has kept us compliant on reviewing and updating all of our policies.
