Summary: Critical Progamming and Grade Calculation Errors
Comment: - Really there are too many errors to list and tech support is essentially useless.
a) grades do not add up or curve properly. two students with identical scores can end up with very different letter grades
b) attendance does not figure into student report cards
c) the software seems to haphazardly treat a score of 0, different than a blank space. if zero is entered and that is the only score for the student in that category then it shows a blank grade in the total
d) updates (there seems to be 1) does not allow you to import older data (grades from other classes)
e) for reports you are often forced to click on categories that have nothing to do with your report (such as selecting all grade categories to get an attendance report)
f) if you try and open a second "class" it may do it or it may crash.
In summary, you are much much much better off making use of a spreadsheet. You will know the calculations are accurate and meaningful. The only drawback to the ss is that it wont make pretty reports (as far as I know).
==> Do something better with your $40!

Summary: Teacher's Toolbox
Comment: This is the same version as 3.0 as I haven't found any differences. You still can't export grades to a report card, import student photos or information and it still doesn't include a lesson planner. It works well for simply tracking grades but it could be so much better!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not User Friendly
Comment: Tried for weeks to find a use for this software. Find it to be not user friendly and primitive, something that you have found 10 years ago using DOS. Folder path driven rather than graphics/icon driven. Customer support was friendly and helpful but after much effort, decided it either did not have a practical application or that it had one but was too difficult to figure out.

Summary: Not Practical
Comment: I purchased this software in an effort to upgrade a copy of the first version. I have been using the original version for 15 years and have depended on it to record my grades and provide progress reports for my students. I could not figure out how to print any reports from this software and when I tried to contact the Tech Support and the Sales Support, I just got a generic response saying someone was looking into my problem. I never received any response and returned the software to Amazon. I am continuing to use my old version.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Recommended by a colleague
Comment: I read a previous review but find my experience to be much different. Perhaps due to the fact that I was not a user of a previous version. I was introduced to the product by a colleague. After she reviewed with me the features of the product, I decided to purchase for myself. I have found that that there is very little learning curve to begin using the product effectively. The navigation is easy and the accuracy of reporting, averaging and curving is excellent. If you haven't used grade book software for your personal use before, I highly recommend this product.
