The are really good with great support. They can 'write back' into the SIMS database which is a big plus for our schools.

There support is class, and as mentioned by Banjo the sims support is great.The admin team find it easy to use

 

EDIT: Also they provide Very helpful training as well

We use it here extensively by admin and class staff. It's leap and bounds better than Teachers2Parents, which is what we used previously.

We have been using it for a couple of years and I have to say - I love it. I use it quite heavily in conjunction with Discover's dynamic groups and Assessment data so that it is easier to target and message parents regarding students that are either struggling or excelling.

 

My partner works in a school that uses the SIMS module equivalent - from what he says the functionality sounds fairly comparable. All depends on who provides your SIMS support as to which is better. We are with School ICT Services who's support I cannot fault for other SIMS modules. I have experienced Capita support and ..... well ..... not going to comment here. The Schoolcomms support I have found invaluable at times and extremely good.
