Using SpedAdvantage through Salesforce has improved the way I do all of my special education paperwork. If you are a SPED teacher, you know how time consuming it can be. I could go on and on how this software has made it easier through better organization,...

The customer service is quite poor, kept getting sent to the same page over and over again with no resolution to my issue

You can truly do anything you want to do in Slate. The support is incredible - you'll be able to work with their team to help you set up sophisticated processes.

I do not like the layout of Slate, and I also do not find it very user-friendly. We often have the idea of how to use it, but need someone more skilled in Slate on campus to help us get it done.
