Classter Reviews

Classter is a web system that also has a mobile application (iOS and Android) very robust that allows the management of school computer systems with learning management, additionally allows progress reports, class registration, grade book, online payments, parent portal and monitoring of attendance, on the other hand is very easy to use, does not require a learning curve because it has a very friendly interface. One aspect to highlight is the parent portal, which allows us as teachers to increase communication with parents and student representatives, as well as allowing them to effectively follow up on the school activities that we carry out at the institution.

I am very satisfied with its operation and efficiency, I have nothing negative to contribute, is an excellent tool.

The Features offered are quite useful and specific to K-12 use as that was product version looked at. The Administration of components such as the scheduling, transport tool, assets, contacts and Academics was quite impressive.
The layout and separation of fields from Management and configuration worked well in clustering user interactions and allowing ease of use.
I enjoyed the ability to maintain roles.
Further to this there were a variety of components that allowed for first managing grades, classes, subjects, academic sessions and homework. It allowed for role management and easy to use user management.
The configurations allow for a good foundation in updating and editing fields.
As an Administration tool it was very comprehensive and designed well for the user experience.
Integration with Microsoft systems is offered.

Unfortunately, while administration was great there were a lot of glaring flaws.
The management of Classes, calendars, timetables, academics, assets, etc. went well however it didn't allow much in the way of incorporating online learning experiences.
It records data but was very efficient at authoring data.
You can manage Homework tasks but there was no way to author lessons or build a learning journey for students.
Reporting and gradebooks were limited in the format or the information they could provide.
Quizzes, assessments, and exams were very basic and inconveniently delivered as they aren't part of a learning journey.
There is no way to record and manage the payment of events for activities or school events.
The modules appear to accomodate many uses but function more as an administration tool for recording and managing data rather than creating treaching platform.
The costs are reasonable but the terms and conditions for reselling are ridiculous. You need to pay a massive fee to become a reseller.
They do not offer a white label solution and you see the classter logo everywhere, unable to change it.
The integration is not as expected as you don't work in the system with the integrated products. it simply records data.
The costs for development, support, integrations, implementation, reselling, and anything above foundational phase and the initial cost make this an extremely expensive product for what it is able to do.

Financial Module works fine. Academic Module is decent.

User Experience is bad & Application almost useless. We had to do debugging numerous times, as things didn’t work properly.

Classter accommodates children from Infant age (8 months) to High School.

> Cheapest!
> 1 Program for all age groups
> Customisable
> Functional
> Some initial training required
> Great customer service
> Report Cards
> Invoicing
> Attendance
> Levels/Streams
> Parent/Student Portal

The list goes on and on!

Initially, as with every new software, takes some time to understand.
However, it all pays off in the long run.
Some training is recommended.
Great customer service.

There is a free option available for those who have basic needs, which is not available with any other student information systems I have found. The support is quick to answer questions and available when you need them with clear answers. If you go even further and pay for a subscription, it has a function for just about every need if you are willing to pay the increases.

The free version is very limited and shows a very basic interface that can sometimes be confusing or take a bit of time to get the hang of. I hope for a more user friendly interface with a paid/upgraded version, although with practice it is able to be used by everyone regardless of their tech skills.

Classter covers all the features that any would think, application is stable and easy to use, and the development team continuously increase new features.

Support to implement is very poor. They do not give all the necessary information. After you pay, may be the team tell you about some features that was not included.
Moodle integration is very limited, especially if you had implemented moodle yet.

Marking configuration is amazing , rich reports , the system is highly configurable and can adapt multiple educational systems.
Billing management.

Library management online features are limited.
Transportation management : bus tracking using mobile app of driver or supervisor is missing

The design is very intuitive and easy to learn and use.

Engagement with the students becomes easy and effective.

The best thing about Classter is that it is easily integrated with Microsoft Office 365 which is a big plus point.

There are lots of options in Classter which I have not discovered yet but during my use there was nothing that can be counted as a con.

This software provided me with very simple and straightforward access to conducting team management and organization.

Overall, it is a great software to use. If it's one thing to fix, I would say the user experience side (design).

Th most valuable thing is the all in one thing. Using classroom manegement and school manegement in the same software with single log in makes everything simpler.

File manegement and reporting seems difficult.

several features. more than you will ever need such as assignments, grades, duties, attendance, online candidates form , payments, bus management, books management and reservation, etc
it has an embedded CRM app for sending group SMS and Emails
Is easy to extract data and even to create your own custom made reports
synchronized with office 365 and moodle. users amd groups are create through classter
price is 1/10 of other similar software found in the market
very good support. they have added a lot of changes free of charge and for custom made apps their cost is reasonable
it has a web interface for the admin/teachers/students/parents/partners and a desktop admin console with a lot of functionalities
is a relatively a small company but very well organized and they all seems to enjoy working for that company

the software is relatively new so the are frequent improvements.
if a user is both an admin, a parent and a teacher you need different accounts.
when you first start the software you will have to wait a few seconds for the data to be loaded from the web.
some things are not very obvious and unless you have a full training or you contact their help desk, you might miss it the first time. but as i said they have one of the best help desk supports i have seen so far.

Ability to integrate with Microsoft 365 and Moodle. The range of functions.

It is necessary to devote a lot of time to learning the product. Customizing terminology is not easy to and the changes you make are not always global, which causes confusion. Too many steps to reveal lists especially users lists. I would prefer sorting commands.

When buying any software that Is aimed at businesses that although in the same industry have different requirements broadly connected, the ability of the customer to customize is essential. I would liked to have seen a far better and clearer customization panel. I don’t like the customisation tools in Classter.

The software acts as a frame of reference in all aspects of our school's operation: grades, tuition fees, communication with parents and alumni etc. This integration boosted our own business efficiency.

Since we have been using Classter since 2011, we have consulted the developers in all evolutionary stages of the software. Many of the aspects stemmed from our organization's needs and became standard features. Therefore, the software is absolutely compliant to our needs and I can't find anything I don't like.

Complete product solution including Administration Management, Parents, Teachers and Students Portal. Support has been improved dramatically during the last 2 years.

A lot of customizations needed that take some time to implement.
Reporting could be improve (functionality and design).

Is a complete school managment and administration software, including tools for e-learning and every department of a company.

There is nothing that I like least on this software. Everything is perfectly working and does what it says.

the software is easy and integrated with Office365, it has most of the required functionalities as required by the school.
the support is amazing, the response time, even with the time difference is less than 24 hours.
classter is ready to implement suggestions

some functionalities are still on the desktop version
customization of the software for school-specific requires is a bit difficult

It offers a lot of flexibility and features and are constantly updating their functionality which is extremely rare to find. Great support throughout analysis and implementation phase as well as throughout product use.

Due to the large amount of functionality, I only wish we had more time to make more use of other features.

On time problem problem solving and positive spirit among the classter team.

There are not features to be reported under this category.

I like most that it gives you the possibility of a feedback even for years before, Tthat it regroups all the informations needed for the students, and that will help our school to improove quicker. Possibility of a real time contact with the parents.

Easy to use, easily understandable, effective.

I can't find anything.
Sometimes it is slow but this concerns my Internet connection.

The free trial is certainly allowing me to evaluate the software fully, without feeling as though I'm risking anything. Timetabling and coordinating large numbers of staff and resources is unavoidably complex, however I think this program makes this almost as simple and clear as it could possibly be.

There are a large number of options and services provided by the software, this is very flexible and practical, but when certain things aren't needed, maybe it would be nice to have them hidden to simplify this a little bit.

Like before you start you could have a check box to choose which features you think you need and the software just hides the ones you don't need (with the option of un-hiding later on if needed)

Classter has easily proven itself as a top tier School Management Solution. It competes head on with many the more prominent systems on the market (especially those for Higher education) but for a fraction of the price.

Things to love about Classter:

Ease of use
Value for money
Top class features
Great support
Customizable
Ever evolving system

That it wasn't discovered before and that many schools are using a system that offers a lot less

The look of the interface, the versatility and customisation.

We personally, couldn't make it work for us. We are not the "average" education site and the timetabling, classes system, just wouldn't work, even after a lot of tweaking. It is a shame as we really were keen on the product.

Classter covers a broad spectrum of what is needed from an LMS, the services they offer usually needs more than one software to cover, yet you can find it all in one place ( CLASSTER)

so far nothing , their development are ready to customize , create and adapt to your need

Students management, academics management, Financial management

It's not so versatile creating your own reports.
