What Users Love About the App

“SchoolSpeak is a great online tool to track and monitor school events, classroom events, progress reports, and classroom assignments. It’s a one-stop shop for all things school-related. I love the ability to look at lunch calendars, school calendars, and my child’s progress report all in one software program. I like that I can use it on my desktop computer as well as the app on my phone.”

“I like the email and assignment posting, as well as the ability to search missing assignments and publish grade reports.”

“One thing it does well is one of the tools it incorporation, volunteer forms. These forms work for parents, teachers, and students. One of the hardest things to do is to get confirmation sign-ups and support. This streamlines the process of organizing events.”

“The gradebook interface is easy to use and understand. In order to take attendance, complete grades, and give assignments, SchoolSpeak actually is an easy platform to learn and is smoothly integrated.”

“Archiving of past classes is easy to do and important because schools need to retain records for a long time after students have moved on. The platform lets you organize students and find them quickly by graduation.”

What Users Dislike About the App

“The mobile version via the app can be a little cluttered. This may be more of an admin issue with too much content rather a software program issue but there is a lot of scrolling that needs to happen to get too much of the content on some of the pages. There are certain functionality features only accessible on the computer version and not on the app itself.”

“It has been very difficult for our school to get it right with this product. The school is constantly having to be in contact with the support department – for hours!! There is either too much to choose from for viewing or not enough.”

“All of the available links to view your information (as a parent) are listed down the left side so you have to scroll and scroll and scroll and search for what you want. All the text is in the same font – the teachers cannot make their information visually appealing and easy to read – not graphic at all.”

“It can definitely have room for improvement in the design and template options. Using a more appealing layout like WIX or WEEBLY offer, but integrating the school speak platform into it would be a wonderful layout and great functionality.”

“Searchability is limited. Switching between “groups” is difficult and time-consuming. The site does not make it easier for a parent to know what is going on at the school nor does it make volunteer opportunities easy to find.”
