"Streamlined College Readiness with Room for Improvement"

3.5/5

What do you like best about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

I use PowerSchool Naviance CCLR as our college and career readiness platform for high school students. I appreciate that Naviance allows students to explore their options for professions and colleges, and even identify which types of jobs align with their personalities and strengths. As educators, we are able to submit necessary college application documents. I like that Naviance is quick and allows us to have a virtual confirmation that school documents have been sent and received. I can log in and see when documents were submitted and whether they were downloaded by the colleges or not, even providing a confirmation number that colleges can use to look up the missing documents. This typically means the documents are located without additional effort on my end or the student's. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

The integration with Common App can be clunky, and some info about careers, especially, is buried. Sometimes a great career option for a student might not be recommended to them because of how search terms or their answers to just a couple of questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PowerSchool Naviance CCLR solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use PowerSchool Naviance CCLR to help students explore careers and colleges suited to their strengths, while it allows us to submit and confirm college documents efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Support is horrific and product is confusing and lags"

1/5

What do you like best about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

The fact that it integrates with our Student Information System, but that's about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

The support is terrible. Every ticket goes to a robot and never seems to be addressed by an actual human. You receive canned responses that do not even address your concern and there appears to be no ability to escalate. We continue to have outstanding issues that will never be resolved. They rolled out not two, but 3 versions of their report engine, none of which are intuitive and all are laggy and require a comical amount of clicks to pull a simple excel export. Our school counselors have consistent issues with common app information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PowerSchool Naviance CCLR solving and how is that benefiting you?

It provides features our counselors need, however most of the data exists already in our student information system so it's primarily college application tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Time saver for our counciling team"

4/5

What do you like best about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

They fianlly rolled out the integration with the SIS this year. We have not rolled it out yet, watiing for the new school year, but we are really looking forward to not having to upload users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

It is a little hard for our teachers to navigate when it comes to letters of reccomendation. This has lead to a low adoption rate for infrequent users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PowerSchool Naviance CCLR solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is a time savor for our counciling team. They could not get through the massive amount of college apps the studnets push through without it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Timeout and deletes progress but can be decent"

0/5

What do you like best about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

The college comparsion tool is quite helpful, though is kind of clunky. The idea of linked parents, students, and counslers is great and helpfull for all parties, though I don't think naviance does a great job communicating the other parites deadlines for uploading certain things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

It's very clunky and I dispise the many times it has reloaded itself asking me to re sign in (seesion timed out i guess), just to delete all the progress of what I was working on, specifically the school survays and resume builder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"An Invaluable Tool To Prepare Students For College"

5/5

What do you like best about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

The whole system is very straightforward to utilize, and support is always on top of whatever we need. It is extremely rare that we don't have a resolution within a few days (for complex issues) if it isn't solved within the same day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

We had some growing pains in trying to implement a way to create/link parent accounts to their student accounts automatically. However, it is my understanding that with the recent acquisition by PowerSchool, this process will now be streamlined, and parents will be able to access Naviance directly from their PowerSchool Parent Portal in an upcoming release. Additionally, over time the overnight automated sync process with PowerSchool has left a bit to be desired and we had to frequently tweak the parameters of our exported file in order to ensure that we had all of the data that we were expecting.

Within the past few years, Naviance changed their password requirements and as a result we were no longer able to utilize our student PowerSchool login information as the passwords were shorter than the new minimum required length that was implemented. However, in configuring a Google single sign-on instead all of those problems went away as students can now just use their district Google credentials to log with the convenient one-click method as long as they are actively logged into their Google account.

Overall, due to the amazing staff at Naviance, even the complaints we have aren't really complaints since they regularly take care of all of our concerns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PowerSchool Naviance CCLR:

If you are considering whether Naviance would be a good fit for your district, I would suggest checking with other districts in your area to verify whether any of them are using it. Naviance support itself is great, but nothing beats hearing things from actual users who may be able to explain things in a better way since they are utilizing the software in the same way that you would be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PowerSchool Naviance CCLR solving and how is that benefiting you?

We previously didn't have an easy way to manage our alumni information, and frequently what we ended up doing was just putting together reports using a bunch of data from our SIS, but we recently began implementing Naviance's Alumni Tracker in order to simplify this process and enable us to spend more time productively rather than trying to cobble together information from our SIS and other sources, which obviously was previously a very inefficient process.

"Until this year, I loved this program. This year it caused massive headaches!"

3.5/5

What do you like best about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

I love that we can now upload letters of rec once and send them to all schools. I also love that I don't have to address and print letters onto letterhead and stuff envelopes. It is amazing that we can now submit via one click of a button. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

This year it was a nightmare. For some reason, they made some adjustments to the program and we had massive issues with being unable to submit letters despite doing everything (seemingly) right on our end. There was a lot more clicking and a lot of "permissions" that needed to be granted without anyone knowing who had to grant them. I spent countless extra hours trying to submit letters than I ever have before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PowerSchool Naviance CCLR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Quick, easy sending of letters of rec and other Common App forms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for college recommendations"

4.5/5

What do you like best about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

Keeps all college recommendation requests in one neat, organized format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

Occasionally, the program will not send you an email notification showing that a student has requested a letter of recommendation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PowerSchool Naviance CCLR solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have been able to save time by keeping all student recommendations digital and being able to complete the process over different periods of time while the program saves my progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Piece of mandatory enforced garbage"

0/5

What do you like best about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

Nothing. Nothing, Absolutley nothing. Nada. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

Linking with the common app is difficult and can cause the site to not accept applications to non common app schools. The login process is a mess, temporary passwords often don't work, and the system likes to shut you out. I was in the middle of writing my brag "sheet", when the website said "Your session was expiring", didn't let me "extend " my "session", and logged me out, scrambled my password again, and DELETED EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF MY PROGRESS. I hate that my school has forced the standard of using this website for applications upon us, and I implore whoever reads this to try any other website/ way to apply to college. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PowerSchool Naviance CCLR:

Don't use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PowerSchool Naviance CCLR solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's caused me rage, sleepless nights, and a ton of problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Strong Platform"

4/5

What do you like best about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

The manner in which the entire platform is presented provides easy access to utilize various resources for the user. It's fairly user-friendly overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Naviance CCLR?

Specifically, there have been some changes to the platform throughout the past several months that have made it difficult to keep track of everything available. There have also been a few hiccups on their end, which they've admitted. It'd be nice to have an easier way of keeping track of what's due and when. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PowerSchool Naviance CCLR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Problems include how to ensure students have proper information regarding potential post-secondary options and career interests they could explore. This usually includes submitting transcripts, recommendation letters and other school and education reports pertaining to the student. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
