"Easiest grading system around!"

5/5

What do you like best about Gradelink?

I love the ease of which I can enter grades, change weights on certain assignments in different glances, quickly get a report of what assignments my students are missing across all subjects, and an overview of their current grades! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gradelink?

I've yet to find anything I really dislike, with perhaps my least favorite section being the lesson planning section. It's a little overwhelming to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Gradelink:

If you need a product that is easy to use, easy to understand, and easy to share with your school parents, this is it. Gradelink has made grade entry and report card completion so much simpler and less time consuming! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gradelink solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm not sure about business problems, but the benefits are that our school parents can log in and see their students' missing assignments, grades, and upcoming school events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Functional If a Bit Clunky"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Gradelink?

Gradelink is good for maintaining basic information on your current roster. It's nice that you are able to find the info you need on your kids at the time you need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gradelink?

Gradelink is, in my opinion, is expensive for what you get. Reporting is cumbersome and limited. For example, pulling attendance reports requires at least ten extra clicks that a good redesign could do away with. Additionally, the visual presentation of the site is rather displeasing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Gradelink:

I would strongly encourage your to explore your options. The feel and performance of system are dated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gradelink solving and how is that benefiting you?

While Gradelink certainly beats that old paper process, it's not by a whole bunch. The main benefit of this SIS is the ability to have the information at your fingertips, even if it takes more effort to compile it than is ideal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use program with multiple functions"

4/5

The easy to which you can move from screen to is great. Allows for different functions to be performed without having to have multiple programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Concluding semesters before some are ready to move into the next semester can cause some problems, but it isn't a deal breaker and I am sure this will be addressed in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Gradelink pros and cons"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Gradelink?

I like how the customer satisfaction specialist, Axel Maldini, treated me with respect and got right on the issue to resolve it. I was new to the system and he made me feel like my issue was important to him as well. He went above and beyond with his solution and follow-up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gradelink?

I wish there was in-person training for new users of the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Phil Moffitt of Gradelink

Axel likes the new title you gave him: “customer satisfaction specialist”! While we don’t have in-person training, help is always available by phone, email and at our help website. We also have webinars periodically that are open to all. To find out what’s coming up next, subscribe to our newsletter at gradelink.com/newsletter. The best part – it’s all free!

"Gradelink Helps Schools"

4/5

What do you like best about Gradelink?

Gradelink helps the school administration to keep track of attendance so the teachers and the administration can have access to the same attendance information, thereby not interrupting class time. In addition, it allows for teachers to input grades throughout the trimesters and for parents to have access to those grades. When the parents have access to their children's test and homework scores, they are permitted more autonomy over their children's grades. Therefore, teachers and parents can work together to ensure students receive the best education and are meeting and/or exceeding their academic expectations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gradelink?

While some may find it helpful to have everything in one software, the website can be overwhelming due to the many different tabs and functions available. We use it mainly for attendance, grades, and scheduling. There are many additional features, and due to cost or the comfort of a current system we already use, we do not make the switch to Gradelink. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Gradelink:

Consider all of the current systems that a school uses to keep track of enrollment, attendance, grade tracking, etc., and determine if it is cost-effective to switch to Gradelink. In addition, consider the time it takes to train administrative staff to use new software and to become comfortable with that product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gradelink solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are solving the problem of grading and attendance. Since the teachers can fill out attendance each morning, the administration does not have to interrupt class each morning to ask for attendance. It also allows us to better keep track of each student, particularly during this year when tracking who was out due to illness was essential. Having an electronic system to keep track of attendance has been an enormous help, especially this year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We’re glad you’re enjoying the benefits of using Gradelink! We want you to feel comfortable with everything available to you, so please talk with your support rep about free training. By using more of Gradelink’s features, you’ll work more efficiently and stop paying for redundant software.

"A basic software for lesson plans and grading records."

2.5/5

What do you like best about Gradelink?

Gradelink is a very basic, easy to use software for lesson planning and keeping grading records. Gradelink also enables teachers to have easy access to student documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gradelink?

Gradelink did not offer all of the capabilities that other educational software programs offered. It would be great to have batch email capabilities and instant messaging between teacher and parents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Phil Moffitt of Gradelink

Actually, Gradelink does have the ability to send emails to groups. It also has tools for texting and voice messaging, parent alerts, enrollment, billing, and more. Take a look at gradelink.com/features to see what it has to offer.

"Easy to implement and use platform."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Gradelink?

Gradelink can all be used and multiple users' access can be customized. Is user-friendly and offers all the information we need for students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gradelink?

The teacher lesson plans feature is not so user-friendly. We can export / download reports EnrollMe & GPA & Scores. We 'd like these details to be updated. It is also perfect if we send an email to a school that automatically includes all of the teachers interested in this class. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Gradelink:

Gradelink was a great tool for our school, enabling us to do things which require several programs and cost less money. This software allows all student information from all web pages to be encrypted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gradelink solving and how is that benefiting you?

A place for a lot of information. Enrollment is easier. Also, we can use Excel Export to create forms in Word, to import documents to mail merge using Excel table. Therefore, you can read all of our emergency materials for the classroom and field trips in a readable format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"user friendly platform."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Gradelink?

I appreciate the rating sheet settings very much. I used to do average by hand and it's amazing, because it is automatically measured for the student in-assignment as well as the average student in the quarter. The lessons on copying, pasting and hit are indeed fantastic instruments. It is easy to modify or change as needed, if things are not planned, far easier than removing plans from a programming book. For me, the use of online reports with full transcripts is one of the most useful things with Gradelink. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gradelink?

The problem with getting the previous grades and transcripts of a student is a little distressing. It was a challenge. The financial sector will also strive to improve its usefulness. I will appreciate in courses the opportunity to block non-school days. It will help to schedule a vacation in order to miss lesson plans on those days. The style of the paint. This is also beneficial for the classroom to distinguish between the students, as set in Excel, by alternating colors / colors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Gradelink:

I suggest Gradelink to another school for an online evaluation and information program. The transformation is quick and fast. The new framework does not have to change any downtimes. It is an creative and easy to use platform which is continuously evolving. I also recommend that you guarantee that before implementing it this software meets all the requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gradelink solving and how is that benefiting you?

Help me answer the problem of excitement among students about future initiatives and activities. Already resolved is the online rating paper. Mass emails may be used to submit reminders to inspire students to think about future events. Gradelink was a big time saver and a guide to keeping the lesson plans coordinated. The contact between professors has improved. Have made it easy to generate report cards and transcripts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
