"Experience with Alma"

What do you like best? Alma has a very progressive approach to education that follows the pedagogical evolution all educators go through. It is a very easy to use interface and the layout and organization is excellent. I was first drawn to the SIS because of the google classroom integration (which is a game changer creating a true LMS and SIS combined system that inform one another). Beyond this I can't say enough good things about the customer service. They are prompt, on the ball and so ...

"Alma: Perfect for a small or large school!"

What do you like best? We tried several different student information systems when our school opened--a self-developed system and also a very expensive system that has been in operation for many years. Alma by far was better than either. It requires no coding on the part of the school, is super easy for teachers to use, and is continually being improved based on the needs of the school. The price was also half of the cost of other systems and is by far the best product! What do you ...

"ALMA Review"

What do you like best? I love being able to use it as a communication tool with parents. They can see specifically which categories their students are struggling with and we can address issues with certain assignments as well. It's great so that report cards at the end of the term aren't a shock. What do you dislike? I wish the most recent assignments were closest to the student's names, instead of the oldest assignments. I find myself doing a lot of extra scrolling back and forth. What ...

"Incredibly Happy!"

What do you like best? Their customer service. I love how easy they are to work with and pleasant. They are more than happy to modify the program for us and are also quick to answer. What do you dislike? Some of the features. I wish we had some flexibility when creating reports and implementing some features we have requested. They are usually quick to fix complaints though and I see a future where we have exactly what we need/want. What problems are you solving with the product? What ...

"User-Friendly"

What do you like best? Alma is user-friendly. Assignments are easy to copy and paste because everything you need is right there on the page. Grades take no time at all to enter. I love the assignment page, which allows me to link to my lessons and easily enter a due date. What do you dislike? I wish there was a place to see each student's grade from each quarter, comments as well. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Students may see in real time ...

"Easy to use"

What do you like best? Alma is intuitive and easy to use. It has all the features I look for without over complicating the format. What do you dislike? Occasionally Alma crashes and is down for a few hours. This is an inconvenience at times. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? The useable and predictable format make Alma easy for a new teacher to use immediately.

"A great class management tool"

What do you like best? Alma is the best class management software I’ve ever used. I love that I can enter grades, do attendance, contact parents or students, and look at data on student performance all in one place. What do you dislike? It took a bit of time to learn all the bells and whistles- but that can be expected from any new software. I expect to navigate it with ease this second year. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Alma speeds up ...

"Very pleased with Alma"

What do you like best? As a teacher, I enjoyed very much using the Alma program because it helped me stay organized in my planning process, but also guided me with all the third grade standards during the whole year. What do you dislike? At the beginning of the school year, I felt a little bit lost about how to use the Alma Platform. However, after some practice, I got used to the system. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Alma helped me to keep ...
