"Great resources for online classes and student database"
5/5
What do you like best about Populi?

The ability to integrate our online classes directly with our student database. It is a one stop shop for everything a student or staff member needs to help a student successfully complete a course. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Updates occasionally break classes and other features we were currently using Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great but reports"
4/5
What do you like best about Populi?

The program is great for records. It does a great job at integrating in information and even establishing items for admissions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Populi?

Reporting is clunky at best. If you want to see who took a certain every year, good luck. It just doesn't filter very well that way or you need to understand how it works. At long as you're a small school and need basic reports you're set, but if you're doing longitudinal data it will take a while. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A good, affordable option for smaller schools"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Populi?

I think the platform is really nice and easy to navigate, reasonable pricing, well designed, and their customer service is always great. Course scheduling is a breeze and overall it's just a nice experience on the front end. I like the design as it's clean and well thought out for navigation. I enjoy the front end a lot, I have surveyed students and they tend to really enjoy their experience with Populi, which is a main concern from an administrator end. I believe the developers are in it to win it though! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Populi?

Populi is a very manual program. Working in financial aid I saw many flaws that accrue due to manual human errors that Populi is unable to catch. Emails were really hard to send out through Populi. The reporting feature was rarely reliable, but can be really helpful. I wish there were more reporting features, as I tend to pull data reports often and i'd love the option to increase those pulls.

"Essential to teaching a course"
4/5
What do you like best about Populi?

As a student and as an instructor, it has been a life saver in keeping things organized and keeping information consistent across multiple class sizes. As hybrid (in-class and online) courses become more and more the standard, this allows me not to have multiple buckets of information in multiple places. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Populi?

There is little to nothing that I dislike about the program. The document reader occasionally makes paper's formatting seem a bit off, but otherwise there's not much to dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Useful in it's own right"
4/5
What do you like best about Populi?

Broad uses, customer service. The fact that it is online and functions the same at home or in the office is a HUGE benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Populi?

It is very helpful and useful in it's own right. The problem comes when you try comparing it to other online software that can do some of the same things better. But then those softwares don't have all the functionality of Populi. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
