Overall Satisfaction with Hero

Hero has made tracking basic behaviors like tardies and uniform violations super easy. The phone app, in particular, makes this process fast and easy.
  • Tracking basic behaviors.
  • Rewarding students in the moment with points.
  • Phone app makes scanning student IDs very fast, which saves time for instruction.
  • Sometimes the phone app freezes on an iPhone, and I have to close out of it before scanning another ID.
  • I also wish there was a way to export all rosters into an Excel file under the behavior tracking tab.
  • Hero has made pulling behavior reports very easy for Deans of Students.
  • Hero has also made tracking teacher actions with it very easy. We can see which teachers gave which particular demerit.
There is one big issue I want to see resolved, which is when we pull student behavior histories, it does not readily show which teacher gave which demerit. This, if solved, would greatly improve the app.
I have not personally reached out for improvement, but I hear that customer service is quick.
N/A
Hero is well suited for charter school systems with smaller classes. It is less appropriate for large public schools where the app freezes might make tracking behaviors overwhelming.
