What Users Love About the App
“The gradebook is the redeeming quality of Teacherease. It’s pretty easy to use, but it could be better. I wish they had an app or some features that are present in other gradebooks. It’s not bad though.”
“I like that we are able to do everything in the same place. We can take attendance in one section. In another section we can put the grades in the grade book. We can also look up each students schedules in Teacherease.”
“I like how you can add in other teachers into your gradebook. That way we can both look at our students grades if we are co-teaching. Teacherease is very user friendly and I love this program!”
“It is easy to use. It has an incredible grade book setup that shows in detail information about students, grades, assistance, email to parents, learning targets, rubrics. You have the chance to see a progress report that teachers have to do.”
“You can follow the grades that students have and analyze their performing. As a teacher, I have the chance to see what assignments students are missing, what failed tasks they have. Therefore, I can follow up with them for their best learning experience.”
What Users Dislike About the App
“Teacherease is financially shady. They refused to refund our payment despite the fact that we requested the refund 2 months prior to the school year starting. Moreover, they refused to answer our calls or respond to our emails as soon as they learned that we wanted a refund.”
“They cost more than you think. There’s a lot of supplemental features that cost extra but are necessary to running an online SIS administration. If you’re looking for a central attendance system or data management, for example, be prepared to dish out extra money.”
“The system is far from user friendly. It takes a lot more clicks than necessary to get where you want to go.”
“Teacherease does not offer much customizability unfortunately. It’s is pretty limited in its scope compared to the competition.”
“Getting in touch with customer service is toilsome. Average wait times are about 10-15 minutes. With other companies, wait times are generally 1-2 minutes.”
