Questions to take into any evaluation
Whatever you compare, ask these of every option - including us.
- 01Does it handle every core job - students, attendance, exams, fees, and communication - in one place, or do I stitch tools together?
- 02Can parents actually collect fees online and get receipts, or is it only a ledger that records amounts?
- 03Are results, GPA, and ranks computed automatically, or do staff maintain fragile formulas by hand?
- 04Is my data backed up, permissioned, and audited - or one lost file away from disaster?
- 05Does it work with my local reality: the calendar, exam boards, and payment rails I actually use?
- 06How long until we are live, and does someone help us import our existing data?
