Just wondering if anyone would mind sharing their experiences of using alternatives to InTouch and SLG.
We currently have SLG and I hate it, so difficult to administrate and parents hardly bother with it, and we use Teachers2Parents for sending emails and texts. However this can only send generic letters, and I really want to get something that will enable me to email out Individual Reports, Profiles and Timetables to students/parents.
Currently looking at PS Connect, Edulink, SchoolComms or Groupcall. They all seem to have their pros and cons, and all say you can email out reports, but is this actually true or is it that parents can log into the app to see the reports (like SLG which we had a poor take up on)? I'm nervous of signing up for the SIMS Parent App as it is so new in development.
Also wondering whether you get a lot of complaints about the apps - looking at the app reviews, they are all very poor, especially Groupcall Xpressions, with lots of people saying they can't login or access the data they should. The idea is to make my job more streamlined and efficient, not add to it with lots or parent complaints!
Thanks in advance
