Overall Satisfaction with iGradePlus

We use iGradePlus for recording attendance, logging daily lessons, parent monitoring and communication, keeping student and guardian information, lesson planning and school calendar monitoring. The free version of iGradePlus has these functionalities that other LMS sites offer only in paid versions so iGradePlus definitely helped us in reducing the cost used for an LMS.

Pros

  • It's record keeping function is robust in its free version.
  • Client support is very responsive.
  • It's set up guide is thorough.
  • The homepage with the news feed is clean and easy on the eyes.

Cons

  • Setting up takes time to do.
  • It lacks basic integrations with some web apps such as Seesaw and Google.
  • The lesson planning functionality needs to be made easier to use.
  • More than half of our clients monitor their child's attendance and lesson logs as seen through the parent portal access count.
  • Our record keeping is now centralized.
  • iGradePlus became a proof of our legitimacy for some of our parents.
Chalk removed its gradebook from its free version. iGradePlus has that for free.

Yes

Did iGradePlus live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of iGradePlus go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy iGradePlus again?

Yes

We use the free version of iGradePlus and it's already fully functional. Maybe we are just missing the enrollment and other functions in the enterprise version but the free version already gives all that we need: attendance, student information keeping, communication, lesson logging. Maybe iGradePlus is not the app to use for integrations with other apps.
