Skyward Review

What do you like best? Skyward has a lot of fields to input a lot of different types of information. There is no shortage of data fields. What do you dislike? I have 2 major dislikes - it is not user friendly, and it is very outdated. Each time I select a new field, it opens a new window. When checking grades, I could have 30 windows open - not necessary! What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? I'm not sure I have realized any ...

Not a Very User Friendly Tool

What do you like best? Once you figure out how to enter in the information, this software speeds up the process of requesting time off and getting expense reimbursement. When you make a request in the system, an email is fired off to your supervisor and they can immediately approve or deny your request. It is much quicker than phone calls, emails, or paper submissions. What do you dislike? The system is not user friendly. There are multiple tabs, pop up windows, and technical language ...

Skyward

What do you like best? There are various categories within each subject area. You also have the option to give assignments different weight values, which makes calculation a breeze. Ialso like the option to have charts instantly generated With ease. Ilike how each category is a different color, which makes it easy to quickly glance to see how balanced the grades are. I also like how parents/guardians are able to log in themselves to see their child's grades and missing work. What do you ...

Not as flexible as it could be

What do you like best? I like that I have access to student schedules, classroom locations, teacher names and extracurricular activities. I like that I can access contact info for home and work as well as emergency contacts. What do you dislike? I dislike that you can't search by anything but a student's last name which does not allow for any flexibility or if you do not have a correct spelling Recommendations to others considering the product I would just recommend that companies ...

Teacher's Review of Skyward

What do you like best? Skyward is easy to use and to quickly become a master user is simple. Having the ability to see other family in schools. Being able to customize the profile is really nice and it is actually an appealing interface. What do you dislike? Having to switch between different modes to see different information is somewhat annoying but it doesn't affect my opinion that much of the software. The text boxes are small and will not automatically expand when you are typing. ...

Easy to use

What do you like best? It's very easy to view what you need with customizable dashboards and it's easy to find and figure out everything. What do you dislike? The only thing that I do not like is that the app will not recognize when I am on the correct Wi-Fi needed to clock in/out so it renders it basically useless. Recommendations to others considering the product It's worth the trouble of switching, it makes clocking and submitting timesheets much easier What business problems ...

Hard to Get to Know

What do you like best? I really like all of the information that teachers have access to on each of their students. What do you dislike? It took me a while to understand how to use it well. It's not especially user friendly. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? I have really enjoyed the access to the academic history of each student. It helps in situation where a student isn't performing as well as I think they could be. I will ...
