PowerSchool Unified Classroom Special Programs Reviews & Product Details

It provided me an easy and accessible way to access my grades throughout the year. I loved the formatting, and colors. Overall, it was a very appealing app. There aren't too many buttons so it doesn't confuse me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This may be just my personal experience with my own school, however power school never provided a cummalitive gpa of all my classes and grades. For someone that's really dedicated to her grades this was something I would have liked access to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing! Special programs is awful - don't use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not user-friendly AT ALL. It's extremely frustrating to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the organization on the side, each category is there to click on, that's the easiest bit of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Otherwise, don't think it's very parent friendly. Sometimes you fill out information and it seems like you haven't finished it, or when you log in again it seems like you need to fill it out again. It's not very clear that it's done and doesn't need anything else to be completed. Other times you can't find information because its' not always there (for example, transportation info). I'd think that for a less computer savvy parent, it would be quite an ordeal to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Powerschool suite of programs creates a great unified and streamlined process of utilizing data and connecting it to other part of the education system. We use all aspects of the Powerschool system from assessment to data management and it is nice to have it all in one location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Powerschool has grown and evolved tremendously, it still can be overwhelming to navigate through. While having multiple reports is nice to have, there are numerous ones that are not clear as to their intentions as well as use. Since I have District access, Powerschool, does not have a very streamlined method to also filter information easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it is relatively easy to navigate and parents can access it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does not feel updated. I also hate that it logs me out after a certain amount of time and that it is not super friendly for putting classes in. Our school uses Canvas for normal grades and Powerschool for attendance and final grades. It's a bummer that we can not use both functions in one platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing I like about PowerSchool is it is easy to use and user friendly. All of my Co-workers like PowerSchool and only have positive things to say about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At this time there is nothing that I dislike about PowerSchool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I highly recommend PowerSchool. It is very user friendly and gives you a ton of customization options. It is easy for all stakeholders to use and access from teachers, parents, admin and students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do not have any downsides. It'd be nice if it integrated more smoothly with Google Classroom for grading purposes, but that is not a huge downside since many do not integrate yet. I'm hoping that will come with time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Taking attendance is a breeze. Power teacher pro for grading is very user friendly. I love the backpack feature to quickly look at one student’s information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing. I can access a mobile version on my phone for fast attendance taking thing in the morning. Love it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
