"Huge Time Saver!"

What do you like best about PowerSchool Enrollment?

We are able to capture updated information annually, which helps our district have more accurate/current information from families. Each family enters/updates their own data, which saves on typos. Registrars used to have to look through piles of papers to find minor changes, then rekey everything into PowerSchool manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Enrollment?

There is setup required each year for both new and returning student forms. The process takes some time, but it's worth it! The support team works closely with your district/SU during implementation each year. I would recommend you have a team of people in your district/SU to work through the changes each year. Gather feedback from office staff, administrators, and families to help improve your form(s) each year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PowerSchool Enrollment?

How easy it is for the parents to use. The information from one student can 'snap' to complete the next students form in the same family. Parents can enroll students from any time. Parents can enroll students from any place as along as they have internet access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Enrollment?

That the pay function is per student not per family. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Registering students is so much easier now"
3.5/5
What do you like best about PowerSchool Enrollment?

Data entry is now done by the parents of our students instead of by us. They used to submit everything on paper, whereafter we entered the data into PowerSchool. Once parents have entered the data into PS Registration, we can send it to PowerSchool with a couple of mouse clicks. It has saved us so much time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Enrollment?

The setup is a lot of work. The field names in PS Registration and PS Sis are not always the same, which makes data mapping for API more cumbersome that it needs to be. Granted, Registration used to be Infosnap, which was not tied to PowerSchool, but now that it is part of PowerSchool, I hope they will go to work on streamlining it.

What do you like best about PowerSchool Enrollment?

This saves time for secretaries. They spend a lot of time entering new student registration information. Having the data entered by parents, reviewed by secretaries and then pushed right into PowerSchool will save them hours in the fall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Enrollment?

the cost is a little prohibitive, with all of the other expenses that are accrued through data bases this adds too much.

It will not save us much money above the cost. The biggest part of our registration process is address validation and proof of residency, we will continue to have this cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"No More paper! Cleaned up our data!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about PowerSchool Enrollment?

We are able to have our data ready for count day which comes 6 weeks into the school year. Previously our staff had to work overtime to try and get data entered for 2000 students accurately. Our staff prefer to have their time back with their family vs overtime in front of a computer. It has really helped us ensure all of our buildings are consistent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Enrollment?

It was difficult at first to get our secretarial staff to embrace online registration and stop using paper forms, but walking them through process slowly and working with them constantly allowed them to understand and see how it made their jobs better and easier.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Enrollment?

What I dislike about PowerSchool Registration is the inability to export data for when submissions were received. However, we are not currently using the Signature version. We will be updating to the Signature version for 2017-2018. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
