What Users Love About the App

“I love the versatility of the platform. There are so many functions that work well together. The software is well integrated and well thought out. The path from one page to another is logical and intuitive. Every time I had a problem with liveschool, I would get a response quickly.”

“I like using LiveSchool because it has multiple functions that make anyone who wants to give some content or a course to take advantage of it in a very satisfactory way, it also makes the students involved have the desire to commit much more to their educational process.”

“I love that you can customize the point system to your specific policy. This can be done school-wide or specific to your classroom. Points can be attached to certain behaviors that you want to support or see more of. We are using this strictly as a PBS system.”

“The best thing LiveSchool offers are the paychecks, the ability to modify categories to fit your school needs, and provides a space to easily track trends- negative and positive.”

“I love that my students are so interested in this software and the potential rewards it holds for them. As an educator, I love how easy it is to use. With no training at all, I was able to figure it out within ten minutes or so.”

What Users Dislike About the App

“Sometimes it can crash when logging in on some mobile devices, or it gets stuck and one is forced to restart the phone. It is much better to use it from the computer, since sometimes the same application becomes slow on the phones.”

“I really don’t like the feature that moves all assignments from one year to the next. I change assignments every year and now I have to delete them as we go from one grading period to the next. It can be cumbersome to adjust the grading scales, although I don’t know if it’s a software issue or an administrative issue at the school I currently serve.”

“It is not as user-friendly as I would like. I can use paper and pencil to log the same information more efficiently. The student-view is not helpful for students to truly understand where they lack because they have to scroll so far to see their points.”

“The app does not hold login credentials. It would be much more useful if we were able to actually use the app on our phones. Points could be awarded in the hallway or outside. Not being able to do this is a huge opportunity missed as this is when students need the positive reinforcement.”

“The app is biggest issue. It crashes often and stalls a lot which limits what you can do with it as a classroom management tool in real time.”
