ClassDojo vs. FACTS Student Information System

ClassDojo is well suited for keeping class attendance records. It provides teachers with an efficient means of recording student class attendance and absences quickly and accurately. Furthermore, it also allows them to track class participation levels in real-time. This can be especially helpful in classrooms where there are many students or if multiple class periods run at the same time.

We base our entire student data on the Student ID that is produced in FACTS. We create user accounts for technology and online textbooks as well as their lunch account, all based on the Student ID. We also can run many different reports using the SID as the data constant and all the other information variables are available as needed to report.

It's user-friendly, the customer service is great, and we have a significant amount of time invested in training our faculty and staff to use many aspects of FACTS within their areas of responsibility. I really like the variety of reports I can generate which gives important data to our administration and Board.

I greatly prefer FACTS to the other grade book systems we have used. I think it is far superior to Blackbaud, Renweb, and Edmodo. It is the simplest and most efficient system that we have used. We are so excited about the vast number of options we have at our fingertips with FACTS.

• The main objective of parents not to feel like its remote learning, this software does it job particularly in that area very well than expected.
• The software has to bring in improvement every now and then, this is a big fall back of this app. They are kind of static in the way they function. Hence over time the app can be a bit of bored.
