Best report writer... Help !

[Kate_Roberts74]

I've got the (unfortunate) task of reviewing and recommending a school reporting package for next summer. Any recommendations anyone.

We're working on something in those lines ourselves. Open source and well tested (our teachers are using it right now). I'll post more info when I know when our launch event is.

Ive designed our own reporting system, integrates with pheonix gold, web based asp pages and ms access databases. And a nice autoit application for the secretaries to print the reports.

 

works well and has been well received.

If you're looking for a primary school report writer my school started using Report Assist a couple of years ago. It took a little while to get used to, as with anything new, but in general all the teachers think it is a great time saver and the finished reports look really good. Hope this helps

One of my schools uses Anthony's program (well the original version when he was at Applepanic) as a replacement for Report Assist and they are quite happy with it.

 

(And so am i 'cause I really, really dislike Report Assist!)

 

And his product support is second to no-one

PS The original program was a bit (i.e. completly over the top ) overzealous with its copy protection but I don't know if the latest one is the same

Hi Simon, I thought it was you.

 

I've posted to you in another thread. Anyhow, you will be pleased to know that I have changed the method of protection - its much more user friendly than it was before.

 

Are you going to BETT in January?
