Clever was born of co-founder Dan Carroll’s frustration as a school tech director in Denver. His plans to use technology to save teachers time and personalize learning were stymied by countless CSV files and forgotten passwords. Dan recalls, “I wanted to be an innovator, but I got stuck being a human API.” Software has the potential to empower teachers and create new ways to learn. But one thing must happen first. Everyone must be able to log in—quickly and securely. To solve Dan’s problem, we built a single sign-on portal that now helps 95,000 of U.S. K–12 schools spend more time learning and less time logging in. Dan and all of us at Clever believe that technology is a powerful lever that can make education more equitable and engaging. Since the beginning, we’ve seen that when great teachers are supported by great technology, it leads to incredible learning outcomes. More than 95,000 of U.S. K–12 schools use Clever, including 97 of the largest 100 districts. That’s 60% of US students logging in with Clever monthly! We are proud to work with the education community to bring a lifetime of opportunity within reach of every student. * * * Seller [Clever Portal](https://www.g2.com/sellers/clever-portal) Discussions [Clever Community](https://www.g2.com/products/clever-portal-clever/discuss) Solution Type Best-of-Breed Overview by Dan Carroll Show More ## Top-Rated Alternatives [ ![ClassLink](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "ClassLink") ClassLink 4.7/5(61) ](https://www.g2.com/products/classlink/reviews) [ ![Canvas LMS](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Canvas LMS") Canvas LMS 4.5/5(1,838) ](https://www.g2.com/products/canvas-lms/reviews) [ ![SchoolStatus](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "SchoolStatus") SchoolStatus 4.8/5(842) ](https://www.g2.com/products/schoolstatus/reviews) [ View All Alternatives ](https://www.g2.com/products/clever-portal-clever/competitors/alternatives) ## User Insights Average based on 51 real user reviews.

MC Michael C. District Instructional Technology Coordinator Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 7/31/2025 "Instructional Time Saver!" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Clever? Clever really makes it easy to get your students connected in the classroom! It's also a very simple way to make sure that all of your district's instructional technology is accessible and in one place! Their customer service is top notch as well - very responsive and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Clever? The only thing that I did not like about Clever was it's messaging portal, which has since been restricted. It wasn't very teacher friendly and did not allow certain items to be included in a message, such as PDF's and images. We have migrated to ParentSquare, but of all the things that Clever is great for, messaging was not one of them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Clever solving and how is that benefiting you? 10-15 minutes of each class was devoted to signing students into their educational technology. Clever eliminated this waste of time but allowing students to sign in once to get to all of their curriculum Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 4/25/2023 "Clever-One stop spot for all digital learning apps, links and redources" 5/5 What do you like best about Clever? My students can easily navigate clever, accesding it with. QR code. Once in CLEVER, I can arrange content for them to engage in by placing the apps we use regularly into categories of use. SO EASY!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Clever? I dont like how easily young students get themselves logged out. I wish I could change a setting to whete if they hit a back button mistakenly, they can simply hit the forward button to get back in without having to log back in.

Instructional Technology Coach Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 5/19/2022 "An all-in-one option for users" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Clever? Clever's option to have all of your institution's most used links on one webpage provides a unique opportunity for those that don't want to have a cluttered interface online. The page is managed by an administrator that can link your applications to this location to provide multiple options. Where our other SSO application held primarily shortcuts and didn't provide the option of signing in to the applications for us, Clever does offer that ability in a format easy for our users to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Clever? Most all-in-one portals do not always log you in automatically to the applications located on their interface. This same issue also holds with Clever. So the overall name is a bit misleading. There does not seem to be any way that users can customize their screens. Our old option allowed users to move their favorites or even create their own shortcuts to applications they preferred. Because Clever is managed, the only option is to favorite what you may want. This ability would be helpful to our users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Clever: The portal offers an easy to use option for those looking for a SSO portal for students or teachers. Provide training if at all possible to users even though it's easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Clever solving and how is that benefiting you? At the K12 district I work in, Clever offers an easy way for IT to distribute the applications needed by students. This management makes it easier to send students to online locations rather than just having managed bookmarks. The applications entered into Clever also are ones that have the ability to integrate with the actual login option to make it a truly single sign on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clever is really a wonderful program for us teachers/students/parents because it allows us to integrate multiple systems without having to go to a bunch of different web pages because it is all in one!

What problems is Clever solving and how is that benefiting you? I have had encountered any major issues with Clever Portal.
