Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I am currently employed as an administrative support manager at a local educational firm. During the time of my employment, the major problem our management had was to find a solution for proper data and information integration between the company, students, parents, and the teachers. This problem got us to investigate many learning management software but an LMS couldn't offer what we were looking for. This is when we were introduced to Power School Student Information System which seemed to be a pretty cool problem solver at that time as it offered us the ability to simplify student registrations online via web forms which happened to be an amazing stress reliever for the company.

Alternatives Considered

Veracross and Edmodo

Each software I used in my career had special features which were specifically unique for them. PowerSchool Student Information System was an impressive software that offered the ability to ease student registrations and admissions online using web forms where students and parents could submit and upload their information and necessary documents to the school/institute with just a few clicks. Even though this feature is available on a few other similar software, PowerSchool Student Information System was the only software that was specialized in this area.
