Clever Reviews & Product Details

I like how Clever saves hours of work by syncing student roster from PowerSchool to various education apps, eliminating the manual export and upload process to each app individually. I appreciate the feature of setting it up once and then only needing to check it once per semester, along with the auto addition of new students, which removes the need to manually add new transfer students to each app. Setting up Clever was easy, and this simplicity adds to its value.

The initial merging process with 3rd party apps can be slow, especially if we already have old accounts from previous years. The onboarding process kind of depends on the responsiveness of the 3rd party app's Clever-sync support team. Some apps I was never able to sync properly due to lack of support from the 3rd party team. It's just hit and miss depending on the 3rd party vendor. When they are responsive, then it's great.

Clever really makes it easy to get your students connected in the classroom! It's also a very simple way to make sure that all of your district's instructional technology is accessible and in one place! Their customer service is top notch as well - very responsive and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing that I did not like about Clever was it's messaging portal, which has since been restricted. It wasn't very teacher friendly and did not allow certain items to be included in a message, such as PDF's and images. We have migrated to ParentSquare, but of all the things that Clever is great for, messaging was not one of them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has several apps& assign work. Also I can talk with my students parents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like that if you don't save you apps to your favorites you have to search for it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My students can easily navigate clever, accesding it with. QR code. Once in CLEVER, I can arrange content for them to engage in by placing the apps we use regularly into categories of use. SO EASY!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dont like how easily young students get themselves logged out. I wish I could change a setting to whete if they hit a back button mistakenly, they can simply hit the forward button to get back in without having to log back in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Clever allows my students to sign in to all of the apps my class uses with just one click. I also like that I can add apps or websites for my students to use in our class page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the student QR code badges do not work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clever's option to have all of your institution's most used links on one webpage provides a unique opportunity for those that don't want to have a cluttered interface online. The page is managed by an administrator that can link your applications to this location to provide multiple options. Where our other SSO application held primarily shortcuts and didn't provide the option of signing in to the applications for us, Clever does offer that ability in a format easy for our users to implement.

Most all-in-one portals do not always log you in automatically to the applications located on their interface. This same issue also holds with Clever. So the overall name is a bit misleading. There does not seem to be any way that users can customize their screens. Our old option allowed users to move their favorites or even create their own shortcuts to applications they preferred. Because Clever is managed, the only option is to favorite what you may want. This ability would be helpful to our users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clever is the one shop stop for elementary teachers, it is compatible with PowerSchool and they are trying to solve many many issues with log-in credentials! easy to use for kindergarten and very very convenient for the upper levels of your school Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Synchronization with SIS is not as frequent as we liked to be and the same with other Apps like Mathletics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clever is really a wonderful program for us teachers/students/parents because it allows us to integrate multiple systems without having to go to a bunch of different web pages because it is all in one! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be finicky sometimes and now allow for the students/parents/teachers to log in. It is a complex interface at first if you do not know how to read but there are major dislikes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clever is a wonderful one-stop portal for many platforms and works well with Google! As a school with 1:1 Chromebooks, having Clever makes it so much easier for students to sign-on with one ID! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clever can be somewhat limited in the apps that are supported but the more common ones are available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
