"Average at best."
What do you like best?
Alma is great for attendance and organizing information for each student. Their support team is also very responsive and excellent for answering questions and troubleshooting issues that arise, and I like that you don't have to call them.
What do you dislike?
Alma's progress report system is extremely clunky and frustrating, and there are features that could be implemented to make things easier but they aren't open to beta testing. The formatting for progress reports is a system where you enter information into a pivot table excel sheet (which is extremely time consuming), then upload, and then check it against the template once done. My biggest issue is that we have 5 different categories, and there is no easy way to create a "page break" within these, so that all the sub categories are listed on the same page (or even a way to say, "title, continued" at the top so it is less confusing). Again, this may be due to our usage as we have each class with their own template and these templates change for every progress report, but it's extremely time consuming and frustrating for me.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure it suits your needs. I think us being a small, independent private school with different style progress reports (read: not actual grades) limits the use of the features that Alma provides in regards to progress reports.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Attendance reporting is the biggest thing, but it's possible we're not using all the features.

"A school must have"
What do you like best?
Alma is very easy to use. My work/school uses it to take daily attendance of our students.
What do you dislike?
Sometimes it will wipe your daily attendance and you'll need to input it again.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
It also stores all of our students contact information and makes it easy to send out a mass email.

"Management of grading and issuance of report cards."
What do you like best?
Impressive how the facepage has everything needed for information of a student just by clicking the name of the student and you are able to see the parents, attendance history, report card details, disciplinary information and so much more.
What do you dislike?
It doesnt keep record of the emails sent to the parents and students something that is very important but missing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I dont see why any school who still hasnt taken a step of having this tool not still lacking it its a tool of great help.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Automatic grading through the live gradebook and student information access and storage.

"Ease of Use"
What do you like best?
It is easy to find grades and class rosters. The menu is user friendly, which is especially good for teachers that struggle technologically. I like being able to find information on each student, including home phone numbers and siblings in the school. I love that everything we need for school on a day to day basis is easily accesible, including the school calendar. I love how easy it is to upload comments for report cards and progress reports.
What do you dislike?
I don't like that I am not able to print grades for individual students. Or not being able to print out class grades per subject. Sometimes I need to print out an individual students' grades but I cannot. I feel that sometimes I want to print out an individual students' grades so that I can show them which assignments are missing, or below grade level.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Of all the systems I've used in schools for grading, this is one of the easiest to use.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I am able to quickly see student attendance and average grades. It is also easy to upload student behavior with the management tool. I love the daily attendance and the fact that I can see the whole child's attendance at a glance.
