PowerSchool Performance Matters Reviews & Product Details

PowerSchools Performance Matters Assessment is a great tool for creating digital assessments for schools, classes, or curricula. Our school district uses it for common curriculum assessments so it is easily accessible by all teachers in a specific grade level/subject. They can also set the same settings for all students taking the assessment to ensure accurate data collection. The integration across 50+ schools makes this a great tool for school districts.

For individual teachers, it is a little cumbersome to create an individual assessment. It takes a lot of time to get the assessment created and formated correctly. And because of all of the options which is usually a good thing, if teachers do not use the tool frequently, the options can be overwhelming and the teacher may not use the tool to the best of its ability.

I really don't like anything much about this program. I hate giving the assessments on it to my students because I hate standardized assessments as a whole, and this particular program requires me to remember a million clicks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is clunky. It is not user-friendly or intuitive. I am pretty good with tech, but I still have to rewatch tutorials every time I use the program because there are so many steps. Also, the page is often hard to navigate and difficult to read because of the layout of the screen. It is hard to enter data into the program because the screen is small and cut in half.

Completing assigned tasks and evaluations in one centralized location has been extremely helpful, especially since we have such a large district. Add in custom forms, and the HR process has been made more easily managed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are still in the implementation portion of the software and have not run into anything we dislike. That being said, I do wish there were more options for importing. Currently only a limited amount of fields can be pulled into Perform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is nice to be able to assess students online with a few clicks of the button and to be able to see score reports quickly and easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is glitchy and not user-friendly and I often have to reteach myself how to use it. Additionally, it is difficult to score students as it requires a lot of clicks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At times, the system can glitch and it is frustrating to start over Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to find, store, and analyze data. Once you play around with it a bit, you learn what the different symbols and pictures mean and realize it's quite user-friendly. I like that there are many different ways to see data and inform instruction. You can access assessments, upload formal observation scores and evaluations, and edit the information at any time. Data is organized per pupil, so it is easy and convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are A LOT of symbols and tabs and drop-down menus; it can be intimidating at first as you try to navigate. It will definitely take some time to learn in terms of navigation, and it can sometimes take many clicks to get where you want to be, but all in all as you use it more you become more efficient.
