Overall Satisfaction with Skyward Student Management System

We use Skyward district-wide for business, scheduling, grades, food service, health. You name it, Skyward is basically a one-stop shop for most of it. Many districts have to utilize several different applications and work to try to get them to 'talk' amongst themselves. Skyward alleviates this issue by combining most of these types of apps together.
  • Reports are easy to use.
  • Everything is one place.
  • Support is wonderful.
  • Skyward takes time to learn.
  • It can be complicated at times.
  • All-in-one solution.
  • Security management is excellent.
  • Everyone is on one system.
  • We are non-profit but I think taxpayers would approve.
It's been too long for me to compare these systems when it comes to features, however, again, Skyward keeps everyting under one login and one system. This helps save a lot of time when pulling reports or doing datamines. You don't have to have multiple logins for multiple systems. It's great to have it all under one roof.

Any larger K-12 educational institution would benefit from Skyward. It's a great way to maintain data and reporting, as well as run the business aspects of a district. While it may suit most needs for most districts, Skyward might be too large a system for small school districts, so care should be taken when evaluating it.
